Infleqtion seeks a Lead Systems Engineer for a terrestrial quantum gravity gradiometer program. The role owns system design and architecture decisions, trade-offs, risk handling, verification and validation, and failure investigations, while working with a program manager. The person would mentor engineers across mechanical, thermal, optical, electrical, embedded-control and software disciplines and collaborate with quantum-sensing experts to make neutral-atom gravity sensors deployable. The posting asks for a relevant bachelor’s degree, six-plus years in aerospace or spaceflight engineering, and prior technical leadership; a security clearance is required or must be obtainable.
