## About the role

ISW enables Rigetti's physicists and fabrication engineers to build better quantum hardware. Our work spans the measurement and characterization platform our quantum engineers rely on every day; the design, layout, and process tooling in our in-house chip fabrication facility; the cloud and on-site infrastructure underneath both; and the analytic environments in between. We also support external customers through our cloud services and on-site deployments. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- What You Bring
- Strong Python, with experience building and running production backend or serving systems
- Experience working in large, evolving codebases, and the judgment to improve them without slowing down the people who depend on them
- Working knowledge of SQL and relational databases, PostgreSQL a plus
- Experience with AWS and a typical cloud stack (Kubernetes, Kafka, Postgres, Grafana or equivalents)
- A track record of working cross-functionally with scientists or other deeply technical peers, and genuine enjoyment of helping them do their best work, especially as requirements change with the science
