PsiQuantum's mission is to build the first useful quantum computers: machines capable of delivering the breakthroughs the field has long promised. Since our founding in 2016, our singular focus has been to build and deploy million-qubit, fault-tolerant quantum systems. 

Quantum computers harness the laws of quantum mechanics to solve problems that even the most advanced supercomputers or AI systems will never reach. Their impact will span energy, pharmaceuticals, finance, agriculture, transportation, materials, and other foundational industries. 

Our architecture and approach is based on silicon photonics. By leveraging the advanced semiconductor manufacturing industry, including partners like GlobalFoundries, we use the same high-volume processes that already produce billions of chips for telecom and consumer electronics. Photonics offers natural advantages for scale: photons don't feel heat, are immune to electromagnetic interference, and integrate with existing cryogenic cooling and standard fiber-optic infrastructure. 

That approach has since been tested at the highest level of scrutiny the U.S. government applies to emerging technology, and it has held up. In 2025, PsiQuantum closed a $1 billion funding round that valued the company at $7 billion. In 2026, the U.S. Department of Commerce signed a $100 million Letter of Intent under the CHIPS and Science Act, followed by a $125 million agreement with DARPA under Stage C of its Quantum Benchmarking Initiative, PsiQuantum's most valuable U.S. government agreement to date. This year, we also broke ground on our utility-scale quantum computer in Brisbane, Australia, and continued building out our Chicago site. Victor Peng, our CEO, and co-founder Jeremy O'Brien, now Executive Chairman, lead a team and board that reflects how seriously the world is taking this build, joined this year by Intel's Lip-Bu Tan and Atomico's Niklas Zennström. 

PsiQuantum also develops the algorithms and software needed to make these systems commercially valuable. Our application, software, and industry teams work directly with leading Fortune 500 companies, including Airbus, Lockheed Martin, Mercedes-Benz, Boehringer Ingelheim, and Mitsubishi Chemical, to prepare quantum solutions for real-world impact. 

Quantum computing is not an extension of classical computing. It represents a fundamental shift, and a path to mastering challenges that cannot be solved any other way. The potential is enormous, and we now have the funding, the government validation, and the sites under construction to make it real. 

Job Summary:

PsiQuantum's Photonics & Technologies group turns the company's core platforms into commercial products. The Cryogenic Interconnect business line brings our data-center-grade cryogenics to AI rack-scale interconnect.

Turns PsiQuantum's cryogenic capabilities into customer programs — and delivers them. PsiQuantum is the only company bringing data-center-grade cryogenics to AI infrastructure. This role works directly with customers to find where cryogenic operation solves their problems in interconnect reach, cooling density and next-generation architecture; shapes those opportunities into programs; and then manages those programs from first hardware through qualification into production.

Responsibilities:

• Identify and develop opportunities where PsiQuantum's cryogenic capabilities — data-center-grade cryostats, thermal containment, warm-to-cold interfaces — solve AI data center problems, across interconnect, cooling and future rack architectures.
• Convert opportunities into programs: scope, phase structure, statements of work, acceptance criteria and pricing.
• Manage those programs end to end with customer and internal teams.
• Coordinate joint demonstrations and qualification gates across internal engineering, customer deliverables and external suppliers.

Experience/Qualifications:

• 10+ years spanning business development and program management for datacenter, networking or complex hardware systems, with 3+ years running customer-funded co-development or NPI programs through qualification into production.
• Commercial fluency in co-development structures: SOWs, phased POs, acceptance gates, production frameworks, take-or-pay and capacity reservation terms.
• Technically credible: can hold a room on thermal budgets, qualification criteria and schedule risk without an interpreter.
• Experience coordinating across a customer, contract fabricators and long-lead suppliers simultaneously.
• Comfort developing programs for a product that is still being defined, where the specification and the schedule move together.
