About the role
We are seeking a System Integration Build Manager in our Broomfield, CO location to lead the planning, assembly, and integration of commercial quantum computing systems. These systems combine large, multi-functional systems including optical systems, electronic control, environmental control into industry-leading quantum processing units. In this role, you will supervise the build team, develop and execute detailed build plans, and coordinate staffing and shared resources across multiple system builds. You will also be responsible for the safety, cleanliness, layout, and equipping of the build spaces.
This role combines personnel management with day-to-day build leadership. You will serve as the primary source of daily work assignments for personnel supporting builds, working closely with system and subsystem engineering leads, program managers, supply chain, and facilities teams to establish priorities, resolve blockers, and communicate build progress. Successful candidates will bring experience leading large and complex hardware builds and developing technical teams in an environment where designs and processes continue to evolve. Finally, this role will be responsible for partnering with the larger manufacturing group to ensure build process and documentation matures as part of the development into full scale manufacturing.
All applicants for placement in safety-sensitive positions will be required to submit a pre-employment drug test
Key Responsibilities:
- Develop and maintain detailed build schedules, assembly sequences, dependencies, milestones, and handoffs with system and subsystem engineering leads.
- Direct daily build activities by assigning tasks, establishing priorities, reviewing progress, and adjusting assignments as conditions change. Coordinate work requests so everyone supporting a build understands what to work on next.
- Supervise, coach, and develop the build team through training, performance feedback, goal setting, and career development.
- Forecast staffing and skill needs across active and planned builds. Lead recruiting, interviewing, and onboarding to establish the team capacity required to meet build commitments.
- Allocate personnel and shared resources across concurrent builds. Coordinate with engineering and supply chain to ensure parts, tooling, test equipment, and specialist support are available when needed.
- Plan build-space layout and capacity for current and future systems, including assembly, integration, test, and storage areas. Anticipate space constraints and coordinate expansions or reconfigurations with Facilities and engineering teams.
- Plan and coordinate the equipping of build spaces, including workbenches, tooling, fixtures, test equipment, storage, and utilities. Ensure equipment is available, maintained, and calibrated where required.
- Own the safety, cleanliness, organization, and operational readiness of build spaces. Establish workspace standards, ensure personnel are trained for assigned work, and address hazards with Facilities and Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE).
YOU MUST HAVE:
- Bachelor’s degree required
- Minimum 5+ years of experience in complex hardware assembly, system integration, prototype builds, or related technical operations.
- Minimum 2+ years of experience directly supervising technical personnel in a hardware build, laboratory, or manufacturing environment.
- 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.
WE VALUE:
- Advanced degree in engineering, engineering technology, manufacturing, or a related technical field preferred
- Experience with low-volume, high-complexity hardware, first-article builds, or research and development programs with evolving designs and procedures.
- Experience in large and complex hardware integration projects, such as space vehicles or major semiconductor lithography tools
- Experience planning, equipping, expanding, or reconfiguring laboratory or build spaces in partnership with facilities teams.
- Familiarity with precision mechanical assemblies, optics, electronics, vacuum systems, and/or cryogenic equipment.
- Experience hiring and developing technicians and other personnel performing hands-on hardware builds.
- Experience with bills of materials, work instructions, configuration control, and records of completed builds.
- Familiarity with scheduling and work-tracking tools such as JIRA, Smartsheet, or Microsoft Project.
- Strong organizational skills, practical problem solving, and clear communication of priorities, progress, and issues requiring decisions.
