Hybrid role owning hands-on networking and physical infrastructure across Berkeley and Fremont sites, with supporting AWS cloud environment and infrastructure-as-code practices. Combines on-site networking/physical infrastructure with cloud DevOps responsibilities.

Responsibilities

  • Own the network across Berkeley labs and Fremont fab, including routing and connectivity into secured fabrication environments and unify networking, hardware, and IT infrastructure into a documented, consistent process
  • Install, rack, cable, configure, maintain, and troubleshoot physical servers, switches, firewalls, load balancers, storage, and related infrastructure equipment
  • Support IT and Infrastructure with cable management, hardware maintenance, upgrades, and software configuration

  • Support planned maintenance, upgrades, and changes to network infrastructure
  • Design and stand up network infrastructure for new lab/fab/system buildouts as we scale
  • Complete cleanroom training to support infrastructure inside fabrication environments
  • Handle occasional overnight maintenance windows and on-call rotations for on-site support
  • Assist with planning and execution of current and future infrastructure needs across on-premise and cloud (AWS) environments
  • Provide support for cloud/on-premise infrastructure resources following best practices
  • Assist with building/configuring/maintaining servers or VMs on-premise and in the cloud
  • Apply Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, Ansible, or similar) to provision/manage infrastructure
  • Support CI/CD pipelines and automation workflows that touch infrastructure delivery
  • Support containerized workloads (Kubernetes/Docker) where they intersect with infrastructure provisioning and networking
  • Follow detailed internal procedures to ensure work is performed accurately, consistently, and safely

About Rigetti Computing

Quantum coherent supercomputing.

Rigetti Computing is building the world’s most powerful computers to help solve humanity’s most pressing and important problems. These systems will perform computations that today’s fastest supercomputers are incapable of — unlocking entirely new classes of problems and offering a direct path to solutions. We are scientists, engineers, builders, and visionaries. We believe quantum computing is going to significantly affect health care, how we treat disease, how we generate energy, and how we feed humanity. Rigetti is the only company deploying full-stack solutions for hybrid classical/quantum computing. Our 19-qubit quantum computer is available online through our Forest platform, and the first commercially useful applications are already under exploration. We were founded in 2013 by Chad Rigetti, and are located Berkeley and Fremont, California.
