Infleqtion is seeking a Manager of Government Affairs to help advance the company’s U.S. federal government affairs strategy at the intersection of quantum technology, national security, space, energy, research, and critical infrastructure. Reporting to the Vice President of Government Affairs, this role will support congressional engagement, appropriations and authorization activity, agency outreach, policy analysis, stakeholder mapping, and executive briefing preparation.

This person will work closely with Business Development, Contracts, Proposals, Product, Engineering, Communications, Legal, external advisors, and industry partners to ensure Infleqtion’s government affairs activities are aligned with business priorities and executed with urgency, integrity, and precision.

Responsibilities

Coordinate closely with Business Development, Capture, Proposals, Contracts, and technical teams to connect policy opportunities with customer needs, program objectives, funding pathways, and Infleqtion’s technology roadmap.

Support appropriations and authorization efforts, including draft requests, report language concepts, letters of support, stakeholder maps, delegation materials, and related engagement timelines.

Plan and coordinate congressional and agency meetings, Hill days, executive visits, facility tours, industry events, and stakeholder briefings.

Maintain a clear operating rhythm for government affairs priorities, including meeting notes, action items, contact records, engagement history, deadlines, and deliverables.

Support Infleqtion’s participation in industry associations, coalitions, working groups, and policy forums focused on quantum, defense, space, energy, science, technology, and innovation.

Help manage and coordinate outside consultants, advisors, and lobbyists to ensure consistent messaging, timely execution, and measurable progress.

Partner with Legal and Compliance to support adherence to applicable lobbying, ethics, gift, travel, campaign finance, procurement integrity, export control, and internal approval requirements.

Create high-impact written and visual materials, including executive briefings, policy memos, board updates, Hill decks, leave-behinds, testimony support, talking points, and strategic engagement plans.

Represent Infleqtion in external meetings as appropriate and help prepare executives and technical leaders for engagements with government stakeholders.
