• Drive user enablement: Create and run community programs (e.g., hackathons, workshops, forums) and publish high-quality documentation, tutorials, and example repositories to lower adoption barriers and reduce time‑to‑first‑experiment.
• Be the voice of the customer: Translate user needs into product and research insights. Shape roadmap priorities and developer experience.
• Turn customer needs into quantum solutions: Collaborate with the applications team to identify and develop practically useful quantum applications on QuEra’s neutral-atom quantum computers, grounded in real customer use cases.
• Translate R&D into learning: Align company goals, customer needs, and structured learning paths for users (courses, notebooks, blogs, challenge tracks) so that QuEra’s latest research and methodologies are accessible and actionable. Oversee timely and high-quality delivery of effective teaching contents on QuEra’s systems.
• Shape go-to-market: Partner with leadership and commercial teams on engagement strategy, strategic alliances, and long-term partnerships.
• Measure what matters: Define and track adoption and success metrics (e.g., active users and time-to-first-success) and use them to iterate programs, content, and engagement strategies.

Qualifications

• Ph.D. in Quantum Computing, Physics, Computer Science, Mathematics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
• 10+ years of experience in quantum computing, with substantial industry or applied research experience.
• Proven track record leading technical teams and orchestrating large, cross-functional collaborations with internal and external stakeholders.
• Strong background in quantum algorithms and application-level benchmarking for quantum hardware (e.g., neutral atom, trapped-ion, superconducting, or photonic platforms).
• Exceptional communication, collaboration, and technical leadership skills; comfortable engaging with both executives and deep technical audiences.

Preferred Qualifications

• Recognized leadership in quantum computing R&D, evidenced by a strong publication and/or open-source track record.
• Depth in quantum algorithms and applications, quantum error correction, and quantum software and tooling.
