Engineering Operations Manager

Engineering Operations Manager:

 

QuEra is seeking an Engineering Operations Manager to make execution across software, hardware, test infrastructure, and QPU programs more predictable, visible, and efficient.

Reporting to the SVP of Engineering, this person will facilitate the operating system around engineering: planning cadence, cross-team dependency visibility, Jira and Confluence hygiene, release and integration coordination, operational metrics, and follow-through on decisions and action items. The role is designed to give engineering leaders and senior technical staff more time for architecture, technical decisions, team development, and delivery.

This is a hands-on individual-contributor role with broad organizational influence. It is not a substitute for technical ownership, product management, engineering management, or infrastructure ownership. Engineering and functional leaders remain accountable for priorities, staffing and resource allocation, architecture, technical acceptance criteria, technical risk acceptance, and release or machine go/no-go decisions. The successful candidate will create the structure that lets those functions work together effectively.

 

What you will own:

• Facilitate engineering planning and execution
• R
