Description du poste

Alice & Bob is developing the first universal, fault‑tolerant quantum computer to solve the world’s hardest problems. The quantum computer we envision building is based on a new kind of superconducting qubit: the Schrödinger cat qubit. In comparison to other superconducting platforms, cat qubits have the astonishing ability to implement quantum error correction autonomously!

We’re a diverse team of 250+ brilliant minds from over 35 countries united by a single goal: to revolutionise computing with a practical fault‑tolerant quantum machine. Are you ready to take on unprecedented challenges and contribute to revolutionising technology? Join us, and let’s shape the future of quantum computing together!

About the role

Alice & Bob is building fault‑tolerant quantum computers using superconducting cat qubits. As we transition from research to commercial deployment, our first systems are shipping to major HPC centers to empower the scientific community.

Quantum Research Community Manager

This role sits at the intersection of user relationship management, scientific engagement, and ecosystem development. Your primary goal is to drive the successful adoption of Alice & Bob hardware and facilitate impactful research outcomes.

How Success is Measured

Success is directly measured by the volume of published research initiatives enabled through our systems.
