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. It’s a complex problem that requires a range of skills, talent and passion.  

We recently raised $75 million to accelerate our cutting-edge R&D.  We partner with many of the world’s leading quantum computing companies and governments to accelerate their path to utility-scale quantum computers. We’re making remarkable progress and growing fast. Join us!  

About The Role

This is a unique opportunity for a talented B2B technology marketeer to shape and lead product marketing. Riverlane is positioned to be the unrivalled leader in the nascent $20 billion market for QEC technology, which in turn helps unlock the $1 trillion quantum computing market globally. You will help us realise this generational opportunity. 

Deltaflow is our ‘QEC stack’ comprising proprietary QEC chips and software. It enables quantum computers to identify and correct in real-time the enormous volume of data errors that would otherwise make reliable scaling impossible. Deltakit, our open-source SDK, lays the groundwork for Deltaflow adoption. 

This fantastic role offers a rare opportunity to join a company and industry at the critical pivot point between scientific discovery and technology commercialisation. Sound exciting?
