Practical quantum computing. Delivered over the cloud. Backed by a16z and Alchemist.
About the role
We are seeking an experienced Cryogenics and RF Field Engineer to support Rigetti systems deployed at customer facilities around the world. This is a hands-on, operations-focused role that travels to customer sites globally, working closely with both Rigetti teams and customer stakeholders in a highly collaborative, research-driven environment. The role is not tied to a single site — you'll be deployed to wherever Rigetti systems are installed, with assignments varying in length and location based on program needs.
What they're looking for
- Technical background in Physics, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent industrial experience (MS or PhD a plus)
- Strong proficiency with general-purpose electronic test equipment (oscilloscopes, network analyzers, multimeters, DC power supplies, etc.)
- Direct, hands-on experience operating and troubleshooting dilution refrigerators (required)
- Substantial hands-on experience working with sub-Kelvin cryogenic systems
- Experience operating and maintaining high-availability laboratory or industrial equipment
- Experience assembling, servicing, and maintaining scientific instruments or complex electro-mechanical systems
