Rigetti Computing is hiring a senior mechanical/cryogenic engineer to own the mechanical architecture of its quantum computing hardware, from room-temperature infrastructure down to the millikelvin core of dilution refrigerators. The work includes leading cryogenic signal-chain design, defining mechanical interfaces across thermal stages, and collaborating with quantum physicists, RF engineers and systems teams. Design decisions run from concept through qualification. The posting is for a hybrid role in Berkeley, California, and emphasizes end-to-end ownership of technically demanding hardware.
