About us
Riverlane’s mission is to master quantum error correction (QEC) and unlock a new age of human progress. From advances in material and climate science, to complex chemistry simulation for new drug design, quantum computers will help humanity solve some of its most important challenges. But without QEC, the industry’s defining technical challenge, such breakthroughs can never be achieved. Riverlane is the world leader in QEC technology. QEC is a complex problem that requires a range of skills, talent and passion.
Having raised more than $125M in funding to date to accelerate our cutting-edge R&D in quantum error correction (QEC), Riverlane partners with many of the world’s leading quantum hardware providers and government agencies to make fault tolerant quantum computing a reality. We’re making remarkable progress and growing fast.
About the role
Deltakit is Riverlane’s open-source software development kit (SDK) for QEC which is designed to help researchers build, test and run QEC workflows as the field of quantum computing rapidly evolves.
You’ll sit right at the heart of Deltakit, working closely with users, partners and cross-functional teams to deeply understand real-world challenges and translate them into a compelling product direction. You’ll use a blend of user insight, product data and market context to cut through complexity and focus on what matters most.
You’ll own and evolve Deltakit’s strategy and roadmap, bringing together engineering, research, business development and marketing around a shared vision. You’ll strike the balance between bold, long-term ambition and what’s realistically achievable today, helping us build for the future of quantum computing while delivering value right now.
Beyond the roadmap, you’ll play a key role in bringing Deltakit to life for the community. From supporting launches to engaging directly with users, you’ll shape how we show up, tell our story, and communicate the product’s value in a way that excites and inspires people to build with it.
What you will do
- Engage with users, partners and the open-source community to gather insight and feedback
- Analyse product usage, developer behaviour and the broader ecosystem to inform priorities
- Define and communicate product vision, strategy and roadmap
- Prioritise features and improvements to drive developer adoption and engagement
- Align cross-functional teams and guiding product and technical trade-offs
- Support launches, user engagement and go-to-market activities
- Develop product collateral, and ensuring strong documentation and onboarding experiences
- Monitor delivery progress and adapt plans as needed
- Drive community engagement and identify opportunities for growth and new use cases
What we need
- Experience working in a B2B product role, or a closely related position with ownership of product direction and prioritisation
- Experience operating in a deep tech environment with complex, evolving problems
- A degree in engineering or science, or equivalent practical experience
- Confidence going technically deep to understand product capabilities, limitations and real-world usage
- The ability to navigate complex trade-offs and shape product strategies that balance user value with feasibility
- High emotional intelligence, with strong active listening, critical thinking and creative problem-solving skills
- The ability to work cross-functionally, influencing without authority and building trusted relationships
- Comfort working in ambiguity and adapting direction in a fast-paced, evolving environment
- Excitement for building a product in a new space within technology
- Excellent communication, presentation and documentation skills, with the ability to tailor to your style to different audiences
- A proactive mindset, able to identify opportunities and take initiative to drive improvements
Even better if you have
- Experience working on open-source software products
- Experience building software products that interface with hardware products
- Experience shipping developer tools (SDKs, libraries, APIs, or CLIs)
- Some exposure to quantum computing
What can you expect from us
- A comprehensive benefits package that includes an annual bonus plan, private medical insurance, life insurance, and a contributory pension scheme
- Equity, so that our team can share in the long-term success of Riverlane
- 28 days annual leave, plus bank holidays and enhanced family leave
