At Classiq Technologies, we’re shaping the future of quantum computing.

Our mission is to make quantum computing practical and impactful by bridging the gap between hardware and real-world applications.

Our platform enables developers and enterprises to design, optimize, and deploy quantum algorithms at scale, automating complex processes and supporting teams from beginners to experts across diverse architectures.

Classiq is trusted by Fortune 500 leaders and global governments. We accelerate the quantum era with a platform that transforms bold quantum ideas into working applications.

Some of the most respected enterprise logos across multiple verticals are already our clients.

We are at the inflection point - the moment when category invention becomes category leadership, and we need the sellers who will drive that transition.

This is a software-led motion: a low-friction commercial model, accessible investment thresholds, and deal cycles that move at the pace of buyer urgency rather than waiting on infrastructure overhauls.

It is a role for someone who has built enterprise revenue in an emerging space of rapid technological innovation and maturation.

  • Lead executive-level discovery that surfaces business problems quantum computing can address often before the buyer has framed the problem in quantum terms.
