Mechanical Design Engineer, Quantum Compute Hardware Systems

About the Role

Rigetti Computing is pioneering the development of scalable quantum computers. We’re looking for a Mechanical Design Engineer to contribute to the design and integration of advanced hardware systems that enable the next generation of quantum computing platforms.

In this role, you’ll support the design, modeling, and testing of mechanical components and assemblies that operate from room temperature down to millikelvin environments. You’ll work closely with senior engineers, physicists, and systems teams to develop precision mechanical solutions that ensure the performance and reliability of our quantum hardware.

This is an excellent opportunity for a motivated engineer to grow in a multidisciplinary environment, working at the intersection of mechanical design, cryogenics, and quantum technology.

As engineering leaders, we value diversity and are committed to building a culture of inclusion to attract and engage innovative thinkers. Our technology, meant to serve all of humanity, cannot succeed if those who built it do not mirror the diversity of the communities we serve. Applications from women, minorities, and other under-represented groups are encouraged.

Rigetti Computing is a pioneer in full-stack quantum computing. The company has operated quantum computers over the cloud since 2017 and serves global enterprise, government, and research clients through its Rigetti Quantum Cloud Services platform. The company’s proprietary quantum-classical infrastructure provides ultra-low latency integration with public and private clouds for high-performance practical quantum computing. Rigetti has developed the industry’s first multi-chip quantum processor for scalable quantum computing systems. The company designs and manufactures its chips in-house at Fab-1, the industry’s first dedicated and integrated quantum device manufacturing facility. Rigetti was founded in 2013 and today employs more than 150 people with offices in the United States, U.K., and Australia. Learn more at www.rigetti.com.
