Quantinuum
Senior Lead of Platform Ecosystem Strategy - 618
Quantinuum, Broomfield, Colorado, United States, 80020
Quantinuum is seeking a highly qualified
Senior Lead of Platform Ecosystem Strategy
in one of our U.S. locations (Broomfield, CO, Brooklyn Park, MN, or Albuquerque, NM). This role provides strategic advice to leadership while working closely with Operational Excellence, Marketing, Technical Teams and Sales on planning, strategy, and execution. The intent is to bring currently distributed post‑sale ecosystem efforts into a cohesive function to promote our best‑in‑class platform strategy and strengthen our developer ecosystem.
The role is responsible for defining and shaping Quantinuum’s platform ecosystem strategy across developers, users, partners, and offerings. Initial execution is carried out through existing teams, with primary responsibility focused on strategy and direction rather than necessarily leading hands‑on delivery such as training or workshops. Resourcing is expected to evolve as the ecosystem matures.
Quantinuum believes that employees work better, more efficiently and more collaboratively in close proximity to other employees, where ideas can be exchanged readily, and decisions can be made more quickly for the benefit of the Company and our customers. All employees should work at their assigned location; however, this role may offer the opportunity to work full or partially remote, with approvals.
Key Responsibilities:
Own the strategic direction for post‑sale platform and developer ecosystem offerings.
Provide strategic‑level advice to leadership on platform and developer ecosystem direction and priorities.
Coordinate internal resources toward establishing an consolidated ecosystem development function focused on post‑sales but in close collaboration with other pre‑sales ecosystem efforts in business development.
Ensure ecosystem strategy has clear input into platform direction.
Oversee Q‑Net, the global user group spanning the full Quantinuum platform, including hardware, Guppy, Nexus, InQuanto, and applications and a diverse array of customers, including the academic, government and private sector.
Guide Q‑Net activities such as the annual meeting and ongoing engagement through newsletters and webinars across academic, industry and national‑lab researchers, developers, and VIP users, with each activity designed around specific technical needs and outcomes.
Structure Q‑Net to enable cross‑domain technical and practitioner collaboration rather than general networking.
Oversee the startup partner program, which provides selected startups with access to Quantinuum’s platform in exchange for publications and product development.
Work closely with OpEx, Marketing, and Sales on planning, strategy, and coordinated execution of ecosystem activities.
Travel of up to 25% of the time.
YOU MUST HAVE:
Master’s degree minimum.
Minimum 5+ years of experience.
Demonstrated experience operating complex, multi‑stakeholder programs.
Due to Contractual requirements, must be a U.S. Person defined as, U.S. citizen permanent resident or green card holder, workers granted asylum or refugee status.
Due to national security requirements imposed by the U.S. Government, candidates for this position must not be a People’s Republic of China national or Russian national unless the candidate is also a U.S. citizen.
WE VALUE:
Master’s degree or greater in a STEM related field preferred.
Demonstrated experience operating complex, multi‑stakeholder programs.
Ability to work credibly across quantum computing communities and to align stakeholders with different incentives.
Experience designing and running structured programs with clear entry criteria, staged engagement, and outcome‑driven decision making.
Prior experience working within a full‑stack quantum computing organization, with familiarity across hardware access, software tooling, and user onboarding models.
Experience engaging developer and research communities around technical platforms, with an understanding of tradeoffs between open access and long‑term adoption.
Experience communicating ecosystem strategy and progress to senior leadership and incorporating feedback into direction and execution.
Comfortable working cross‑functionally with Product, Sales, Legal, Technical teams, Operational Excellence, and Marketing to translate ecosystem activity into insight that informs offerings.
Experience working with Legal to develop appropriate participation terms and data use provisions for externally facing technical programs.
Experience developing and managing program budgets with staged investment logic and accountability under fixed constraints.
Active teamwork and collaboration.
Excellent written and oral communication skills.
