Classiq is a quantum computing software company. We build the platform that enterprise teams and government organizations use to develop, optimize, and deploy quantum software across any quantum hardware. We're a growth-stage B2B technology company with 100+ patents and a global footprint across North America, Europe, APAC, and Israel.

Classiq is expanding its presence in Italy by building a new quantum computing center, and we're looking for our first on-site hire to lead its day-to-day operations. You'll be the local technical and operational face of the platform for the center's users, running onboarding, training, and support.

This is a hybrid technical customer support profile, including technical presales, training, customer support, implementation, and research. You'll join as an early, founding member of a new site, with real autonomy to shape how it runs.

What you'll do

• Serve as the on-the-ground technical point of contact for the center's platform users.
• Deliver hands-on onboarding and training on the Classiq platform for researchers, engineers, and end users in Italian.
• Provide first-line technical support and troubleshooting for platform users.
• Implement quantum applications hand in hand with the local enterprise customers.
• Own day-to-day center operations: user and license management, hardware/resource access allocation, etc.
• Build strong working relationships with the partner's team - surfacing risks and requirements, and feeding field insights back to Classiq.
• Represent the center for visiting customers and partners (demos, walkthroughs) - customer-facing.
• As an early hire, help stand up center readiness -space, equipment, and workflows as the team grows.

Who you are

• Advanced degree (MSc or PhD) in Physics, Computer Science, or Engineering, with a strong academic or practical focus on quantum computing or quantum information.
• Prior experience in technical customer support, training delivery, or platform/site operations.
• Comfortable learning and explaining complex technical concepts to non-expert audiences.
• Demonstrated independence and initiative, a proven track record of owning a project, site, or function.
• Fluent/native Italian; strong enough English to collaborate with a global team.
• Based in or willing to relocate to Naples.

Bonus points

• Exposure to Python or scientific/technical computing.
• Experience with HPC, lab, or specialized hardware environments.
• Experience opening or standing up a technical site/office as an early team member.
