About
Why Superposition?
In quantum mechanics, a system in superposition holds multiple possible states at once. Only when it's measured does one outcome become real. Building a career in a field this new feels a lot like that: dozens of possible paths open at once, whether you're actively job-hunting or just watching where the field goes next.

Superposition Jobs was created by a small group of engineers based in San Francisco and New York City with aspirations of entering the quantum computing industry. We aim to build the most comprehensive career platform specifically for quantum computing, across physics, engineering, and computer science. By fostering a dedicated hub for the community, we hope to deliver greater visibility for employers and professionals alike. We are a nimble team but aim to abide by the highest standards for all content on our site, from informational guides to job postings.
Talent first
We build primarily to serve job seekers and professionals. That means sourcing as much information as possible, keeping the board current, and protecting candidate privacy, all while filtering out spam and low-quality sources.
Neutrality
We aim to create a level playing field where candidates and employers can showcase their work and compete on merit, not on who has the biggest marketing budget.
Completeness
We want to become the index for quantum computing: the whole stack of funding, research, people, and product, all in one place. Our goal isn't to replace the rest of the ecosystem, but to make it far easier to navigate.
Frequently asked questions
Why should I use Superposition Jobs?
Prospective candidates can boost their visibility with recruiters and others in the industry by simply creating a profile on our platform, and can find other useful resources including current professionals, conferences, and research symposiums. Employers gain direct exposure to highly-qualified job seekers, sourced from both existing quantum companies and academia.
How do you source your job listings?
Listings are pulled directly from each company's own applicant tracking system, including Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, and others, rather than syndicated from other job boards. The board refreshes automatically on a regular schedule, so closed roles come down without anyone manually maintaining the list.
Is Superposition Jobs free to use?
Yes, for candidates. Creating a profile, browsing listings, and using our guides and resources is free. Employers post roles directly with us. See our for-employers page for details.
Do I need to be actively job hunting to create a profile?
No. A profile is useful even if you're just watching the field, staying visible to recruiters, or connecting with other people working in quantum computing.
Is my profile information private?
You control it. Profiles default to private, and you can choose to make yours fully public, visible to signed-in members only, or keep it private. Interest you express in specific companies or jobs is never shown on your public profile. That stays private to you.
Which companies do you include on the board?
We focus specifically on companies building quantum computers and quantum software, not general tech companies, and not vendors that merely sell hardware or instrumentation into the industry.
How can my company post a role?
