Own the definition, integration, and validation of fully integrated quantum node systems

Define system architecture, build plans, and system-level requirements that translate innovation into buildable systems

Lead cross-functional integration across hardware, chips, and software to deliver fully functional quantum systems

Own system validation, verification, and readiness, ensuring systems meet performance, reliability, and quality expectations

Establish stage-gating, build cycles, and release processes that drive predictable system delivery

Build and scale a quality organization responsible for system integrity, test strategy, and acceptance criteria

Identify integration risks early and drive resolution across teams before they impact system builds

Drive accountability across engineering for end-to-end system performance

Bring structure to ambiguity, drive cross-functional alignment, and establish discipline for repeatable system builds

Requirements

Deep experience in systems engineering for complex, multidisciplinary products (hardware + software + integration)

Strong background in requirements definition, system architecture, integration, and validation

Experience establishing quality, release, and stage-gating processes in fast-moving, ambiguous environments

Ability to operate across organizational boundaries with authority, aligning multiple senior stakeholders

Proven ability to bring structure, clarity, and execution discipline to evolving systems

Experience using AI/LLM-assisted workflows and analytics features with an understanding of limitations, validation steps, and data governance
