Head of Virtual Events/Experiences
User experience researcher job in New York, NY
About Riley
Riley is on a mission to create happier and more engaged teams. For ages, offices have played a major part in company culture and now that workplace trends have accelerated towards remote and hybrid teams, we're here to fill the void left by the rituals and experiences that used to be shared in person. Riley's answer is a platform that combines experienced, service-minded individuals with technology to create a new way to connect with employees and keep them engaged and happy.
A huge part of Riley's mission is to provide diverse job opportunities and career advancement paths for individuals of all backgrounds.
The Role
This role is ideal for someone who is eager to get in on the ground floor of an exciting new startup. This is an opportunity for a motivated individual to take ownership and gain knowledge across multiple aspects of a business. You will wear many hats and must be comfortable knowing that no two days are alike. You'll be asked to collaborate directly with both Co-Founders and your feedback will be instrumental in shaping the foundation of the company. While your responsibilities will be broad, the primary responsibilities will include:
Creating Event Programming/Experiences
Riley's clients expect curated and thoughtful events to keep their teams engaged and interested so we need someone who likes to think out of the box to create novel, fun, and worthwhile virtual events. You'll be instrumental in sourcing, organizing, and coordinating events for clients and also building the database of events for the future.
Riley seeks to recreate some of the rituals that are missed from the physical office, such as acknowledgment of birthdays or special occasions. As head of events/experiences, we'll need someone who can fill this void by offering up interesting ways for companies to reimagine these types of employee experiences.
Liaising With Co-Founders
As we grow Riley, we're hoping to find a motivated individual who's interested in learning what works and what doesn't and isn't afraid to share valuable feedback. You'll be instrumental in sharing ideas that will be implemented in all facets of the business including marketing, operations, and training.
Team Building
As one of our first employees, the expectation will be that you will grow into a leadership role in a short period of time. This means we're looking for someone who's up for a challenge and isn't afraid to learn new things and is eager to not only learn, but also to teach and lead by example.
We show a strong preference for those with a demonstrated, scrappy, customer service oriented bend.
*For this role, you will be reporting to Manhattan five days a week during regular business hours (8:00AM-5:00PM).
Who You Are
A solid human being....you do things the right way and won't compromise your morals.

Quantum Benchmarking Initiative Researcher
User experience researcher job in Utica, NY
Job Description
Quantum Benchmarking Initiative Researcher
Beware of fraudulent job offers and postings! Technergetics will never extend an offer of employment without a thorough interview process involving face to face interviews either in-person or a virtual Teams meeting from an official Technergetics email address (
@techngs.com
). If you receive any correspondence from an email other than
techngs.com
, it is a scam. Pre-interview code testing is only administered through the
Codility
platform. We will not send out questionnaires or testing through any other platform/site prior to a first interview.
Opportunity Overview:
Technergetics is seeking to
hire
up to five mid-level to senior-level
Physicists, Mathematicians, Logisticians, Computer Scientists, Computer Engineers, Systems Engineers, and Operations Research experts. While a research background is a valuable and applicable skillset for these positions, the objective of them is evaluation, not research.
These positions will work closely with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)'s cross-organizational Quantum Benchmarking Initiative (QBI) team to review, validate, and document approaches enabling revolutionary advances in design, engineering, testing, and evaluation in the domain of fault-tolerant quantum computing and exploring computational workflows that include quantum computing procedures. The primary goal of the QBI program is to determine if any emerging approaches to quantum computing can achieve industrially useful operation exponentially faster than conventional predictions.
Position Details
Salary Range: $75,000-$150,000 annually. The successful candidate's salary will heavily depend on how many position qualifications the candidate meets, in addition to education and experience. This is a full-time exempt position.
Remote performance is expected for this position and Technergetics will consider candidates from across the United States. Regardless of location, a successful candidate can expect to travel to the Washington DC area (DARPA), and Support or Performer sites across the country 10%-40% of any given month. Daily activities include frequent VTC meetings and may also require limited/periodic nonstandard work hours to accommodate meetings with team members and Performers across multiple time zones.
Responsibilities and Duties
The day-to-day activities of DARPA's QBI team include performing tasks to identify, select, capture, evaluate, and document the metrics and approaches that DARPA's commercial Performers are developing and applying to build fault-tolerant, utility-scale quantum computers (USQC). The QBI team is responsible for generating and executing plans to assess the timeline, performance and operation metrics, and plausibility of each Performer's technology. Candidates will verify a Performer's ability to build a USQC that operates as intended, and they will document, report, and justify the findings.
Typical work can be divided into three categories:
1. Review and Evaluation
Rapidly digest large quantities of complex Performer-specific technical details, perform relevant independent evaluations, and generate standardized Government artifacts summarizing independent assessments of that material
Evaluate quantum computing architectures, devices, algorithms, and applications including utility and maturity
Identify Performer subsystems and components required to successfully design and construct the system
Discover, develop, implement, execute, evaluate, analyze, articulate, and justify models and simulations at the component, subsystem, and system levels
Assess DARPA and Performer requirements; capture and document the level of maturity of these elements
Identify, assess, and capture design, development, and integration risk
Identify the Performer's interface approach
For efforts with an existing Interface Control Document (ICD), review the information and identify any shortcomings. It may be necessary to convert the Performer-provided ICD to a common framework identified/developed by the Government evaluation team.
For Performer efforts that do not have an existing Interface Control Document, assist the Performer to track system interfaces through an ICD or similar document.
2. Documentation and Reporting
Assist non-traditional performers to complete design reviews
Participate in system concept and readiness reviews
Perform prototype subsystem System Requirements Review (SRR) through Final Design Review (FDR) and prototype construction
Assist with diverse evaluation and documentation activities
Identify, implement, and apply standardized Government and systems engineering products, practices, and documentation
3. Professionalism and Teamwork
Work with a multidisciplinary team of researchers, physicists, scientists, engineers, and subject matter experts to identify problems and synthesize solutions which can be integrated into preexisting workflows and processes
Discover, develop, and lead novel workflows to enhance and improve evaluation processes as new Performers are added to the program
Cultivate a professional and respectful environment of cooperation by listening and considering the views of others.
Be willing and able to seek opportunities for collaboration with personnel from other functional units (finance, contracting, etc.) and other technical areas of participating organizations to accomplish work-related activities.
Education and Certifications:
This project requires, at minimum, graduation from an accredited college or university with a Bachelor's Degree in a Science, Mathematics or Engineering discipline.
