About the role
SQC exists to push humanity's technological frontier further than it has ever gone. The work we do demands that every tool, every workflow, and every atom counts. As Head of AI Enablement, your mandate is simple: ensure the way we work is as cutting-edge as the science we do.
This is a high-impact, hands-on role. You will have direct access to the CEO and executive team, an AI budget to deploy, and the freedom to tear down and rebuild workflows. You will operate across every business unit and every level of the organisation - from lab to commercial to operations - identifying where AI can compress timelines, eliminate friction, and unlock capability.
You will build apps. You will design agents. You will assess when to buy and when to build. You will coach, enable, and push SQC to the frontier of how work gets done – because if we're going to build the world's first fault-tolerant, utility-scale quantum computer, every advantage counts.
Your experience
- You have operated at the leading edge of the AI wave - you're not watching it, you're riding it.
- You are a builder and systems thinker who sees workflows as things to be engineered, not endured.
- You have hands-on experience deploying AI tools and agents in real organisational environments, and know what "production-ready" actually means.
- You know when an off-the-shelf SaaS product is the right call - and when it isn't.
- You have deep familiarity with frontier AI tooling (Claude, GPT, Cursor, and the broader ecosystem) and can configure, prompt, and integrate them properly.
- You can coach and bring others along - showing what's possible and driving practical adoption at every level.
- You think carefully about AI infrastructure cost and efficiency, and you manage spend like it matters.
- You understand AI governance and data security, and you build with both in mind from the start.
- You thrive in high-accountability, fast-moving environments where the quality of your output is visible.
