Senior Software Engineer, Compute Infrastructure

Rigetti Computing is building the world’s most powerful computers to solve humanity’s most pressing problems. We believe this technology will fundamentally change the world for the better and will affect nearly every industry over the coming decades. 

As a Senior Software Engineer for Compute Infrastructure, you are responsible for helping to build and maintain Rigetti’s core cloud infrastructure. You will help own/implement and maintain the vital systems that power all aspects of our business and you’ll work cross functionally with world-class engineers and physicists to pioneer the most advanced Quantum Compute Platform in the world. This is a rare opportunity to combine onsite quantum infrastructure with modern cloud technology.

Location Note: You'll keep a hybrid work schedule, present for at least 3 days a week in our Berkeley office. Your physical systems and your key customers are there, and you need to know them, spend time with them, understand them, and help them.

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.
