About The Role
We're seeking a Vice President, Fab Development to lead the build of SQC's first dedicated semiconductor fabrication facility, the physical foundation for our silicon-based quantum hardware roadmap.
Reporting to the Chief Operating Officer, with direct and frequent engagement with the CEO and Board, this executive-level role offers end-to-end ownership of a multi-year capital build and deep exposure to senior leadership, government, and world-class scientific and technical teams.
You'll own the program from a greenfield site to a fully commissioned fab, spanning planning, design, regulatory approvals, procurement, construction, commissioning, and handover into production.
You will operate at program and commercial level, directing specialist technical work through expert hires and partners, and you will hand‐pick and pace the team as the program scales.
This is a role for someone who brings structure, commercial discipline, and world‐class delivery to genuinely hard problems, and who is at home with stakeholders at every level, internal and external.
If you have a background delivering semiconductor fabs, specialty cleanrooms or major capital programs, this is a rare opportunity to make your mark on a foundational build.

Act as the single owner of the facility program, accountable for schedule, budget and commercial risk end to end
Lead site selection, lease and property negotiation, Development Applications and the full regulatory pathway

Direct facility layout, process flow, systems architecture and Class 5 (ISO 5) cleanroom design specification, with technical leads




Own procurement strategy, vendor and equipment‐partner selection, tooling sequencing and supplier relationships
Oversee construction alongside the construction prime and sequence the build against the production ramp plan
Manage delivery partners commercially and contractually through delivery
Lead initial commissioning, phased stand‐up of production lines and handover into operations
Build and scale the function, owning headcount strategy and pacing across procurement, facilities, operations and program management
Your Experience
A demonstrable passion for technology and an interest in frontier tech
Led or co‐led delivery of a semiconductor fabrication facility at comparable scope, with personal ownership of program, schedule and commercial risk; greenfield build, specialty fab, or major expansion
Class 5 (ISO 5 / Fed Std 209E Class 100) cleanroom delivery experience
Capital program ownership across multi-year phases at or above this scale
Program and commercial leadership at executive level
Experience leading programs where scope or major inputs were unresolved at the start
A working style that operates at program and commercial level, directing technical work through others and managing stakeholders across government, vendors, and internal executive and technical teams
Qualified and collaborative in nature
This position may require access to export‐controlled information (ECI) subject to EAR and ITAR.
Final employment decision is contingent upon satisfactory completion of export control screenings and obtaining any necessary export licenses or approvals, based on nationality, citizenship, and other factors considered by applicable export control regulations.
