À propos
At Infleqtion we embrace a startup mentality driven by results, urgency, and customer-focused innovation:
We break down barriers between disciplines, stepping in wherever we can make the biggest impact.
We thrive in uncertainty, embracing challenges as opportunities.
We move quickly to prototype while never losing sight of the critical importance of systems engineering process and attention to detail.
We take bold, calculated risks to drive progress.
Infleqtion is seeking a DevOps / Platform Engineer to support the teams building the control system software for Infleqtion’s quantum computers. This role works closely with software engineers, embedded systems engineers, and physicists to accelerate technology development by building and maintaining the infrastructure, automation, and tooling that underpin our systems.
This is a highly technical, hands-on role supporting cutting-edge quantum computing systems, where requirements evolve quickly and the “right” solution is not always obvious at the outset. You’ll be working in an environment that spans on-prem infrastructure, lab and scientific equipment, embedded systems, and production software, often simultaneously.
We’re looking for engineers who are comfortable operating in uncertainty, who enjoy solving concrete problems, and who can help evolve systems from early solutions into robust, production-quality platforms over time. We’re open to candidates with different experience levels; strong fundamentals, curiosity, and the ability to learn quickly matter more than having every skill listed.
Job Responsibilities
Build and operate on-prem and hybrid infrastructure supporting quantum computing platforms
Administer Linux systems in both production and research environments
Manage servers, virtualization, and capacity from bare metal through VMs
Design, operate, and troubleshoot networking across compute systems, labs, and connected devices
Work with NAS/SAN and shared storage technologies to support stateful, high-throughput workloads
Develop and maintain automation for provisioning, configuration, testing, and deployment
Apply infrastructure-as-code and configuration management practices
Support and integrate networked lab equipment, IoT-style devices, and specialized hardware
Collaborate across disciplines to support testing, deployment, and operational workflows
Participate in incident response and help drive iterative reliability and operability improvements
Incorporate security, hardening, and operational best practices as systems mature
How We Build Systems
Our work sits on the bleeding edge of technology. We often start with incomplete requirements and evolving constraints, especially when supporting new quantum hardware and control systems. We prioritize making progress with sound engineering judgment, then strengthening and refining solutions as systems stabilize and scale.
This role rewards engineers who are comfortable choosing practical tools, adapting quickly, and improving systems incrementally rather than waiting for a perfect design.
How We Work
Small, highly technical, and collaborative team
Close interaction between infrastructure, software, hardware, and research groups
Tool-aware and pragmatic, with a focus on outcomes
Emphasis on building clear documentation, shared understanding, and steady operational improvement over time.
Why This Role
Direct impact on the infrastructure behind next-generation quantum computers
Opportunity to work across software, hardware, networking, storage, and embedded systems
A technically challenging environment where adaptability and judgment matter
Room to grow with the team as systems and platforms evolve
Competitive compensation and benefits
Requirements
3+ years of experience in DevOps, Platform Engineering, or SRE roles
If you have substantially more experience than this and are excited to apply, please do — we will also consider hiring at the Senior DevOps Engineer level.
Strong Linux system administration experience
Meaningful experience operating on-prem or hybrid infrastructure
Hands-on knowledge of:
Virtualization platforms (VMware, Proxmox, KVM, etc.)
Networking fundamentals (VLANs, routing, firewalling, DNS, DHCP, TLS)
NAS/SAN and shared storage systems
Experience writing and debugging automation in Python, Bash, or similar languages
Ability to troubleshoot issues spanning software, OS, networking, storage, and hardware
Clear communicator who can document systems and participate in design discussions
Nice to Have
Experience with infrastructure-as-code and configuration management (Terraform, Ansible, Puppet, Chef, or similar)
Experience with CI/CD systems such as GitLab CI or equivalent
Database administration experience, especially PostgreSQL, TimescaleDB, InfluxDB or similar time-series databases
Exposure to security, compliance, or regulated environments, including:
EAR / ITAR considerations
Secure system design or audit readiness
Experience with networked devices, IoT, or scientific / lab equipment
Familiarity with embedded software environments, including Yocto, Vivado, and cross-compilation workflows
Some experience administering Windows Server environments
