About the role

About Us QuantWare is building the world’s most powerful quantum processors to solve humanity's greatest challenges. We do this with our unique VIO™ technology, the only QPU architecture that breaks the hardware barriers that have held quantum computing back, unlocking the path to MegaQubit quantum processors. With VIO, we are paving the way for the hyper-scale quantum computers that will change the world. And delivering on that vision demands people who don’t shy away from tackling the hardest challenges of our time. That’s where you come in! We are seeking a Director of Systems Integration to lead, build, and scale the engineering organization responsible for deploying our technology with top-tier global partners. In this role, you will take ownership of major quantum hardware and system integration programs, managing system engineering teams and serving as the executive engineering interface to our strategic enterprise partners, translating complex commercial goals into high-performing physical systems. What you’ll be doing • Lead & Scale System Engineering Teams: Recruit, manage, and mentor a small team of senior technical leads and engineers across Systems Engineering, HPC Integration, Ecosystem Management, Advanced Packaging, and RF Engineering. • Program Ownership: Own end-to-end delivery of complex, multi-year, commercial quantum hardware integration projects involving partner co-design. • Engineering Leadership Relations: Build, maintain, and manage relationships with senior engineering leadership at customer and partner organizations. • Ecosystem Readiness: Identify and de-risk technical, timeline and cost mismatches across third-party hardware suppliers and integration partners to ensure compatibility with our QPUs. • Process optimisation: Establish, mature and scale standardized engagement frameworks and processes for integration projects, partner training programs, logistics, etc. • Commercial Interface: Partner closely with Business Development teams to evaluate technical feasibility, resource allocation, and timeline alignment on strategic commercial proposals.
