Classiq Technologies is a quantum software company based in Tel Aviv. We provide a full-stack platform (IDE, high-level language, compiler, and OS) for designing, compiling, and running quantum algorithms. Backed by 70 patents and a recent $110M Series C funding round, our technology automates quantum programming and turns functional intent into executable quantum circuits. Our compiler and platform technology scale quantum algorithms from concept to implementation, making quantum software development faster and more practical.

We’re seeking a Team Lead for our Engineering group, with professional experience in software development and system design, and demonstrated leadership skills. This role is ideal for someone who values collaboration, enjoys building effective processes, and is passionate about guiding a team to deliver high-quality, impactful software.

Responsibilities:

• Lead, mentor, and grow a team of software engineers, supporting their professional and personal development through regular feedback, coaching, and career guidance.
• Foster a collaborative and inclusive team culture that encourages ownership, innovation, and continuous improvement.
• Oversee day-to-day team operations: plan and run sprints in alignment with product priorities, monitor Jira boards, track progress, and ensure timely delivery of features.
• Take part in lightweight project management, coordinating with product and other R&D groups to define scope, priorities, and milestones.
• Ensure Classiq’s engineering infrastructure is reliable and up to date, including CI/CD pipelines, local development environments, internal libraries, and compute clusters.
• Promote high standards of software engineering, including architecture, code quality, testing, and operational excellence.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with product managers, quantum researchers, and other engineering teams to deliver production-ready capabilities.
  
  

Requirements:

• Experience leading and managing engineering teams, with a focus on mentoring, coaching, and developing people.
• Demonstrated ability to plan and run sprints, manage Jira processes, and align engineering work with product priorities.
• Hands-on software development experience (Python preferred), with the ability to guide and review technical work.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, development environments, and engineering infrastructure.
• Strong communication and organizational skills, with the ability to balance technical depth and process leadership.
• Academic background in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
  
  

Advantages



• Experience with infrastructure ownership: clusters, developer environments, internal libraries, or platform reliability.
• Prior involvement in project management or engineering program management.
• Exposure to quantum computing concepts and software frameworks (e.g., Classiq, Qiskit, Cirq, PennyLane).
• Experience working in fast-paced, cross-disciplinary R&D teams.
