About the Role

Rigetti is seeking a Software Infrastructure Manager to lead the team responsible for building and operating the software infrastructure that powers our quantum computing platform.

You will sit at the intersection of cloud systems, on-prem laboratory infrastructure, and semiconductor fabrication environments, supporting both internal research systems and the infrastructure behind Rigetti’s quantum cloud platform.

This role comes at a critical moment for the company. Rigetti is transitioning from primarily offering quantum computing as a cloud service toward deploying quantum devices in external environments, which requires evolving our infrastructure architecture to support hybrid deployments across cloud and on-prem environments. At the same time, the company is maturing operationally, introducing stronger operational processes, security and compliance frameworks, and greater reliability in production systems.

The Infrastructure Manager will lead a small but highly capable team, helping bring greater structure, resilience, and coordination to the infrastructure organization while ensuring the platform continues to scale alongside the company’s growth.

Rigetti’s environment is technically complex, combining cloud-native systems with specialized quantum hardware and semiconductor fabrication equipment, making infrastructure work both challenging and highly interdisciplinary.
