BeyondtheBit : Quantum Pathways

Beyond the Bit: Quantum Pathways is the podcast for people building or joining the quantum workforce.

Host Amir Rasool, Founder of QAi Talent (qaitalent.com), speaks with founders, researchers, engineers, educators and investors who are building real quantum and quantum‑adjacent technologies. Together they unpack how teams are structured, which roles are hardest to hire, and what skills really matter when turning quantum ideas into shipped products.

Leaders hear candid stories about hiring mistakes, org‑design experiments and navigating talent bottlenecks. Early‑career listeners get practical advice on skills, pathways and becoming genuinely “hire‑ready”. Amir also draws on his work at QAi Talent, where most leaders start with a short Quantum Talent Diagnostic call before engaging in the Quantum Talent Foundation or Quantum Talent Readiness Sprint to design their hiring roadmap.
