Descrição da oferta de emprego

Senior Technical Program Manager (TPM) at Rigetti Computing, Berkeley, CA. A senior-level full time position in the CryoRF team, listed under software engineering.

We are seeking a Senior Technical Program Manager to drive execution across some of the most complex engineering programs at Rigetti. This role sits at the intersection of quantum hardware, systems engineering, and software infrastructure , ensuring that cross-disciplinary teams deliver integrated quantum systems on schedule.

The Role

Rigetti’s quantum systems require tight coordination between research scientists, hardware engineers, and control systems . As a Senior TPM , you will own the planning and execution of large technical programs that bring these components together into deployable quantum systems.

You will operate in a fast-moving deep-tech environment where many efforts are research-driven and technically ambiguous , requiring strong judgment, technical understanding, and execution discipline.

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.

Responsibilities

• Own the end-to-end delivery of complex technical programs at the system level.
• Build and maintain program roadmaps, milestones, and integration schedules for quantum system releases.
• Drive execution across multiple engineering teams while maintaining alignment with company priorities.

Requirements

• 7+ years of experience in technical program management, engineering program management, or systems engineering.
• Experience delivering complex multidisciplinary technology programs.
• Strong understanding of hardware + software system development lifecycles.
• Demonstrated ability to lead programs across multiple specialized engineering teams.
• Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills.
• Ability to operate effectively in ambiguous, research-driven environments.

Nice to Have

• Experience in quantum computing, semiconductors, advanced hardware systems, or deep-tech startups.
• Background working with R&D organizations or research-to-product transitions.
• Experience with large-scale system integration programs.
• Familiarity with Agile or hybrid development models in hardware/software environments.
• Degree in Engineering, Physics, Computer Science, or related technical discipline
