You will play a foundational role in shaping the company’s product strategy and processes and taking responsibility for the success of our products and services. \nThe team’s mission is to transform neutral atom quantum computing technology into products and services offering cutting-edge quantum computing functionality, delivered both via the cloud and as managed on-premise solutions, and interfaced by users via a variety of in-house and third-party software. As the Senior TPM, you will partner closely with scientists, engineers, executives, and customers to define, communicate, and deliver the roadmap for quantum computing products and services. You will gather and synthesize both functional and non-functional requirements from customers, translating them into a clear and actionable product roadmap. Working closely with cross-functional teams, you will ensure that development efforts are both feasible and timely, delivering solutions that meet customer needs. In addition, you will drive project and program management activities to align with key milestones, ensuring execution stays on track and goals are achieved. \nIn-depth exploration and a solid grasp of application algorithms for NISQ and early FTQC will be essential in shaping product features and roadmap priorities. This role calls for comprehensive technical expertise across the quantum computing stack-including hardware, control systems, compilers, quantum error correction, and algorithmic software. Given the product’s early stage, advancing both the maturity and stability of the technology is paramount. Success will require the ability to navigate complex trade-offs, balancing the push for rapid feature development with the need to ensure system robustness and reliability. \nInitial Projects \nYear 1-2: Define, deliver, and execute a roadmap of products and services built on QuEra’s Gemini-class platform, enabling customers to access and develop on QuEra’s first-generation gate-based systems. Manage scope and timelines to meet both functional and non-functional requirements, ensuring a high level of customer satisfaction. Through successful product development, demonstrate QuEra’s QPU as the leading choice for executing algorithms in select, high-impact use cases. Bloqade, QuEra’s open-source software for creating, simulating and executing quantum program, will be a core part of the offerings and will require product management in its own right, as part of the role’s scope. \nYear 2-3: Extend this roadmap to QuEra’s next generation, QEC QPU platform, supporting continuous supply of qubits, and logical, error-corrected quantum computation. This roadmap needs to be aligned with our long-term technical roadmap for 2027 and 2029. \nIn parallel, you will establish and operate a product management process to synthesize, negotiate, document, and track requirements across internal and external stakeholders. \nResponsibilities \nAs Senior Technical Product Manager, you will be expected to lead and drive the following activities: \n Define and articulate the product vision and roadmap for QuEra’s quantum computing services (cloud-based and on-premise), ensuring alignment with company strategy and customer needs. \nGather and synthesize requirements from physicists, engineers, application developers, and customers across hardware, software, and operational domains. \nTranslate technical requirements into actionable deliverables, including structured product specifications, prioritized backlogs, and feature timelines. \nCollaborate with engineering and R&D teams to deliver against specifications and milestones, balancing competing priorities, resource constraints, and technical uncertainties. \nLead product launch planning and execution, including customer adoption strategies, success metrics, and go-to-market support for new systems and services. \nEstablish, operate, and continuously refine product management processes, ensuring effective communication, decision-making, and execution across the company. \n\nYou will also be expected to contribute to the following: \nCollaborate with application developers and scientific partners on pilot projects, benchmarking efforts, and use-case validation. \nIncorporate customer feedback and market insights into technical development and roadmap prioritization. \nSupport quality assurance, system integration, and operational readiness, ensuring reliable delivery of products and services. \nContribute to business development activities, including customer demos, RFP responses, and strategic partnerships that expand QuEra’s market presence. \nQualifications \nProven experience (7+ years) in product management or technical leadership roles, ideally in deep-tech fields (quantum computing, HPC, semiconductors, complex hardware/software systems). \nStrong technical background with the ability to engage deeply across the quantum computing stack -from hardware and control systems to compilers, quantum error correction, and algorithmic software. \nAdvanced degree in physics, engineering, or computer science. \nDemonstrated success building and managing roadmaps that bridge science, engineering, and business needs. \nAbility to succinctly capture requirements and convert them into actionable specifications and structured backlogs. \nExperience with software and/or hardware lifecycle management, from prototyping to deployment and support. \nProven success in project and program management, balancing scope, timelines, and resources while navigating technical and organizational ambiguity. \nExcellent communication skills, with the ability to engage effectively with both technical experts and business stakeholders. \nWillingness to travel periodically to customer and machine locations worldwide. \nPreferred: \nProficiency with product management tools (e.g., Atlassian suite, Aha!) and agile methodologies. \nDirect experience in quantum computing research, product development, or application algorithms (NISQ and early FTQC). \nFamiliarity with cloud-based services, managed infrastructure offerings, and enterprise adoption of emerging technologies. \nExperience supporting customer-facing activities such as pilot projects, benchmarking, RFPs, and strategic partnerships. \nDemonstrated ability to establish and scale product management processes within a growing organization \nWe consistently monitor external market data and update base salary ranges accordingly. We determine base compensation decisions on several factors, including as geographic placement, role-specific knowledge, skills, and/or experience. In addition to our base salary offerings, we also provide equity grants for all new hires.\nQuEra is committed to cultivating a diverse work environment and is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We highly value diversity in our current and future employees and do not discriminate (including in our hiring and promotion practices) based on race, religion, color, national origin, gender, gender expression, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status, or any other characteristic protected by law.","description_format":"text","description_chars":7413,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":7,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"phd","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Quantum Science & Computing","Quantum Computing Hardware"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-06T12:19:24Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 10","filings_12m":10,"filings_prev_12m":8,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":177500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-15T11:24:14+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)","US Department of Labor: PERM disclosure data (green cards)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":8,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.3,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":270,"expected_fill_days":88,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","ghost","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-26T05:57:25Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/quera-computing-sr-technical-product-manager-gemini","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/quera-computing-sr-technical-product-manager-gemini.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-27T00:15:46Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":176,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-28T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":179594},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=179594"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fquera-computing-sr-technical-product-manager-gemini"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fquera-computing-sr-technical-product-manager-gemini"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fquera-computing-sr-technical-product-manager-gemini"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/quera-computing-sr-technical-product-manager-gemini\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fquera-computing-sr-technical-product-manager-gemini"}]}
