Job Description
Join Nexus Quantum Labs at the forefront of technological evolution as we pioneer the quantum computing revolution. We're seeking a visionary Quantum Infrastructure Architect to design and deploy the next-generation systems that will power the digital landscape of 2026. This role offers unparalleled opportunity to shape humanity's technological future while working with Nobel Prize-winning researchers and cutting-edge hardware. Our state-of-the-art facility in downtown San Francisco offers collaborative workspaces, on-site quantum labs, and comprehensive benefits including equity packages.
As a key member of our Future Systems Division, you'll architect hybrid quantum-classical systems that solve previously impossible problems in cryptography, materials science, and AI optimization. You'll collaborate with government agencies and Fortune 100 partners on projects that will redefine computational boundaries. This is more than a job—it's your chance to build the digital foundations for the next decade.
Responsibilities
- Design fault-tolerant quantum computing architectures integrating photonic, superconducting, and topological qubit technologies
- Develop hybrid quantum-classical frameworks for enterprise-scale optimization problems
- Lead implementation of quantum-resistant cryptographic protocols for 2026 security standards
- Architect scalable cryogenic control systems supporting 10,000+ qubit arrays
- Collaborate with AI research teams to develop quantum-enhanced machine learning pipelines
- Establish quantum networking protocols for distributed quantum computing ecosystems
- Create security frameworks for post-quantum digital infrastructure
Qualifications
- PhD in Quantum Computing, Physics, or Computer Science with 5+ years industry experience
- Expertise in quantum error correction codes and fault-tolerant architectures
- Proven track record deploying quantum hardware (IBM, Rigetti, or IonQ systems)
- Mastery of quantum programming languages (Qiskit, Cirq, or Q#)
- Deep understanding of quantum algorithms (Shor's, Grover's, VQE)
- Certification in quantum security (NIST PQC standards)
- Experience with cryogenic engineering and quantum control systems
