Here is a [list of companies working on quantum computing][1]. As this kind of company is a subclass of general IT companies, you will find all the regular roles of commercial IT: - Evangelists, Sales - Researchers - Teachers (i.e. in an "academy" style function within the company, giving talks or courses of a few days each) - Consultants - Developers, Implementators - Operations, Maintenance - Management In a company specializing on such a narrow niche as quantum computing still is, in 2021, with your background you could be a worthwhile employee in all these aspects - fully depending on your own character and interests. If I were in your shoes, I'd send my resume, together with a clear message of what kind of work you want to do, and go job hunting. Treat it like an information retrieval operation; talk with possible employees, and ask them what kind of jobs they offer currently (or check the job offerings listed on their web sites, of course). This will give you a very quick insight into what the market offers. [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_companies_involved_in_quantum_computing_or_communication
