[Hiring] Quantum Product Architect @NVIDIA

Role Description

We're looking for a passionate quantum computing expert to lead developer relations across the federal research community. In this role you will:

• Serve as the senior technical and strategic interface to a focused set of NVIDIA’s most important QPU-builder partners.
• Develop a detailed understanding of each partner’s architecture, technical roadmap, product strategy, and system requirements.
• Create and drive multi-year joint roadmaps that integrate partner QPUs with NVIDIA GPUs, networking, systems, and software.
• Move partner engagements from piecemeal integrations toward co-designed, productizable QPU-GPU systems and reference architectures.
• Lead cross-functional work across NVIDIA product, engineering, systems, networking, developer relations, and business development teams.
• Conduct technical workshops, hackathons, and hands-on training sessions at national labs, user facilities, and federal research venues.
• Represent NVIDIA at scientific and technical conferences such as SC, APS Global Physics Summit, and IEEE Quantum Week.
• Engage senior technical leaders, including division directors, principal investigators, chief scientists, and program managers.

Qualifications

• Master's degree in physics, computer science, electrical engineering, applied mathematics, chemistry, or a related field, or equivalent experience. PhD preferred.
• 14+ years of experience in quantum information science, with 5+ years in the quantum computing industry or at a national laboratory or similar research institution.
• Demonstrated technical expertise across quantum algorithms, quantum error correction, or quantum hardware and control systems.
• Hands-on background in scientific computing, high-performance computing, or GPU-accelerated software development.
• Outstanding written and verbal communication skills, including public speaking to technical audiences.
• Willingness to travel frequently (approximately 40%) to national laboratories, federal sites, and conferences across the United States.
• This position requires U.S. citizenship and a security clearance. An active TS/SCI or DOE Q clearance is strongly preferred.

Requirements

• Prior experience working at or with a DOE national laboratory, an NQIS Research Center, or other federal institution.
• Familiarity with federal research funding, procurement, and collaboration mechanisms.
• Prior developer relations, technical evangelism, or solutions architecture experience in a research-facing role.
• Experience with quantum control stacks, QPU calibration, or real-time systems.

Benefits

• Base salary range: 320,000 USD - 488,750 USD, determined based on location, experience, and pay of employees in similar positions.
• Eligible for equity and benefits.
