About me
Sean Dague is the Chief Services Architect at IBM Quantum, where he focuses on making quantum computing securely and reliably accessible through the cloud. He has helped shape the architecture and operational model that allows users—from enterprise teams to learners—to access IBM quantum systems in practical ways, including designing core scheduling and fair-share mechanisms that balance demand with system availability.
Sean has a long history of open source leadership and contribution. He has contributed to numerous projects through IBM’s Linux Technology Center, including work spanning Xen and OpenStack, and he served on the OpenStack Technical Committee. He also remains active in the broader maker and automation community, including the Home Assistant ecosystem.
Outside of work, Sean can usually be found hiking or biking around New York’s Hudson Valley.
