QuEra Computing, Inc.

QuEra Computing, Inc. is establishing a new AI Engineering team to assist groups across the company in applying artificial intelligence to their operations. The company builds LLM- and agent-powered software designed to make complex engineering and operational steps faster, cheaper, and more accessible, ranging from machine build and bringup to everyday tasks. This work complements QuEra's existing in-house strengths in physics, controls, and hardware, and a background in quantum computing is not required for these roles.

The open roles indicate that QuEra is building a team of senior, high-autonomy founding engineers to set technical standards, establish reusable patterns, and help scale the group quickly. The currently listed position is a Senior Applied AI Engineer, located in Boston, Massachusetts, USA. This role focuses on end-to-end ownership of internal AI tools and features, partnering with engineering, hardware, and operations teams to turn ideas into deployed products.

Professionals joining this team are expected to design and deploy LLM and agentic systems, including retrieval, tool use, orchestration, and evaluation, while implementing sensible guardrails and optimizing models for cost, latency, and reliability. The positions require strong software-engineering expertise in Python, a track record of operating production software at scale, and substantial hands-on experience with prompt and agent design, retrieval-augmented generation, and rigorous evaluation.
