Quantinuum has appointed Nitesh Sharan as Chief Financial Officer, effective April 6, 2026, bringing in a seasoned finance leader as the company ramps up commercialization of its quantum computing platform. Sharan previously served nearly five years as CFO of SoundHound AI, Inc., where he guided the company through its 2022 public listing and oversaw finance, corporate strategy, HR, legal, and intellectual property functions, experience that positions him to support Quantinuum’s future capital markets and growth agenda.
President and CEO Dr. Rajeeb Hazra said Sharan’s mix of financial discipline and operational experience in scaling technology businesses will be critical as Quantinuum navigates complex growth and funding environments. Before SoundHound AI, Sharan held senior finance and treasury roles at Nike, including Vice President of Investor Relations & Treasurer and CFO of Global Operations & Technology, following 15 years in leadership positions at Hewlett-Packard and an early career at Accenture, and he now joins a 700-person global team that is deploying high-fidelity QCCD-based quantum systems for customers across pharmaceuticals, materials, financial services, and government sectors.
