Developer Relations Manager, Quantum Computing — National Labs and Federal - Remote

Originally posted 7 August 2026 by the employer.

About the role

This role involves leading developer relations for NVIDIA's quantum computing platform within the US national laboratories and federal research community, focusing on strategic collaborations and SDK adoption.

What you'll do

• Develop and sustain technical knowledge in quantum workloads important to the federal research community.
• Lead strategic collaborations with DOE national laboratories, NQIS Research Centers, NNSA sites, and federally funded quantum programs.
• Partner with lab research teams and leadership computing facilities to embed the NVIDIA quantum stack into production research workflows.
• Conduct technical workshops, hackathons, and hands-on training sessions at national labs, user facilities, and federal research venues.
• Monitor the federal quantum landscape to identify new opportunities in quantum simulation, quantum error correction, AI applied to quantum computing, or quantum digital twins.
• Engage senior technical leaders to address architectural challenges such as QPU-GPU integration, real-time control, decoding latency, and the transition to fault tolerance.

What you'll need

• Master's degree in physics, computer science, electrical engineering, applied mathematics, chemistry, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
• 8+ years of experience in quantum information science, with 5+ years in the quantum computing industry or at a national laboratory or similar research institution.
• Demonstrated technical expertise across quantum algorithms, quantum error correction, or quantum hardware and control systems.
• Willingness to travel frequently (approximately 40%) to national laboratories, federal sites, and conferences across the United States.
• U.S. citizenship and a security clearance.

Nice to have

• Prior experience working at or with a DOE national laboratory, an NQIS Research Center, or other federal institution.
• Familiarity with federal research funding, procurement, and collaboration mechanisms.
• Prior developer relations, technical evangelism, or solutions architecture experience in a research-facing role.
• Experience with quantum control stacks, QPU calibration, or real-time systems.
