Every board Lumai builds has to run multi-gigabit links and feed high-current ASIC and FPGA rails. Getting those right before the board is fabricated is the difference between a working system and a respin cycle. This role owns the modelling, the stackups, the materials and the design rules that make it work, and has a direct say in the decisions that prevent the respin. You will own signal and power integrity across our boards and packages. That means pre-layout channel studies that set routing topologies, stackups, materials and constraints; post-layout analysis of critical channels, including insertion and return loss, crosstalk, and eye and COM analysis with IBIS-AMI models; optimisation of vias, breakouts, connector launches and the transitions into our optical engines; and PDN impedance targets, decoupling strategies and DC drop analysis for high-current rails. What is genuinely hard is that the channels cross boundaries - chip, package, interposer, board and optical engine - and a model is only as good as its weakest corner. You will spend as much time at the bench as in the tool, correlating what you predicted against what the hardware does, and feeding that back into design rules. By month six, you will have signed off the critical channels on at least one board, built the model libraries and design guidelines the team reuses, and be the person whose analysis decides when a layout is ready to release. • Run pre-layout channel studies to set routing topologies, stackups, materials and design constraints for high-speed interfaces., • Carry out post-layout SI analysis of critical channels: insertion and return loss, crosstalk, and eye and COM analysis using IBIS-AMI models., • Design and optimise vias, breakouts, connector launches, and the transitions into optical engines and co-packaged components., • Set PDN impedance targets, design decoupling strategies, and run DC drop and AC PDN analysis for high-current ASIC and FPGA rails., • Support package, interposer and board co-simulation with the ASIC team to keep channel and power integrity sound end to end., • Correlate simulation with lab measurements using TDRs, VNAs and oscilloscopes, and feed the results back into models and design rules., • Evaluate and characterise PCB materials, connectors and cable assemblies with suppliers and fabricators., • Build up our SI/PI methodology, model libraries and design guidelines so they can be reused across projects., • A degree in electronic engineering, physics or a related discipline, plus proven SI/PI experience on high-speed PCB and/or package designs., • Proficiency with at least one major EM and circuit simulation suite, such as Ansys HFSS/SIwave, Keysight ADS or Cadence Sigrity/Clarity., • Strong understanding of transmission line theory, S-parameters, crosstalk, loss mechanisms and channel compliance metrics such as eye diagrams and COM., • Experience with IBIS and IBIS-AMI models for SerDes and memory interface simulation., • Solid knowledge of PDN design, including impedance targeting, decoupling optimisation and DC IR drop analysis., • Hands-on measurement with VNAs, TDRs and high-speed oscilloscopes, and the ability to correlate measurements with simulation., • 56G/112G PAM4 channels, or PCIe Gen5/6 compliance., • Package and interposer co-simulation, including chip-package-board analysis., • Low-loss PCB materials and fabrication tolerances and their effect on high-speed performance., • Scripting (Python, MATLAB) to automate simulation and post-processing. Lumai is the optical compute company building the next generation of AI infrastructure. Spun out of optics research at the University of Oxford in 2021, we compute with light instead of electrons. Our 3D optical technology carries out the matrix multiplications at the heart of AI inside beams of light travelling through free space, which lets it go beyond the limits of both silicon GPUs and integrated photonics. In April 2026 we launched Iris Nova, the world's first optical computing system to run billion-parameter large language models in real time, using up to 90% less energy than conventional GPU-based systems. Iris Nova, the first server in the family, is now available for evaluation by hyperscalers, neoclouds, enterprises and research institutions. Aura and Tetra will follow. Our work won the Falling Walls Award for Science Breakthrough of the Year 2025 and 'Best Overall Technology' at the OCP Future Technologies Symposium. We are headquartered in Oxford. You'll work on a new kind of computer. Optical computing for AI has been promised for decades. We have a working system running real models, and the hard part left is taking it to volume. Your work ships. We are moving from first product to volume production, so what you build this year goes into the servers our customers run. You'll work across disciplines. Optical engineers, machine learning researchers, and hardware and software engineers solve problems together. You will learn things that don't appear on your job description. The work matters beyond Lumai. AI's appetite for energy is one of the defining constraints of the next decade. Our mission is sustainable intelligence at global scale: AI that is faster, cheaper to run and far less power-hungry. You'll join early. You'll have a real say in how we build the product, the team and the way we work. Lumai is an equal opportunity employer. We make hiring decisions based on skills, experience and potential, and we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds. If you need an adjustment at any stage of the hiring process, let us know and we will do our best to support you. #J-18808-Ljbffr

IonQ, Inc. [NYSE: IONQ] is the world’s leading quantum platform and merchant supplier - delivering integrated quantum solutions across computing, networking, sensing, and security. IonQ’s newest generation of quantum computers, the IonQ Tempo, is the latest in a line of cutting-edge systems that have been helping customers and partners including Amazon Web Services, and AstraZeneca achieve 20x performance results and accelerate innovation in drug discovery, materials science, financial modeling, logistics, cybersecurity, and defense. In 2025, the company achieved 99.99% two-qubit gate fidelity, setting a world record in quantum computing performance. Headquartered in College Park, Maryland, IonQ has operations in California, Colorado, Massachusetts, Tennessee, Washington, Italy, South Korea, Sweden, Switzerland, Canada, and the United Kingdom. Our quantum computing services are available through all major cloud providers, while we also meet the needs of networking and sensing customers across land, sea, air, and space. IonQ is making quantum platforms more accessible and impactful than ever before. Oxford, UK Hybrid We are looking for a highly technical Senior Software Engineer to join our System Orchestration team in System Software at Oxford Ionics. In this role, you will be responsible for building and operating the software that keeps our systems calibrated, decides what they do next and keeps the record of what they did, contributing to the team's mission of keeping our quantum computers running useful work around the clock. The trapped-ion quantum computers we are building will control 10,000 ions within two years, and all of that has to be kept in tune - settings that drift over minutes, hours and days. Without it a computer does not stop; it quietly starts producing invalid output. Calibration routines, scientists' experiments and customer workloads all compete for physical hardware, and our team builds the control plane that arbitrates that: it schedules and prioritises programs, hands exclusive access to one at a time and takes it back cooperatively, streams results while a program is still running, and keeps the record of everything that ran. It runs on every quantum computer in our fleet. Its job is to keep that machine busy and productive: running quantum programs rather than waiting in between, and running them in spec - on a machine still hitting the fidelity it is meant to hit. The ambition is for that to run without a person in the loop: machines that assess their own readiness, call for the calibrations they need, and keep a full history of how they were tuned. You’d work closely with the runtime team who own real-time control, the systems teams who build and maintain our quantum computers, and the operators and scientists who run them. This is a hands-on engineering role and stays that way as you grow in it. You'll play an important part in shaping the services that support our work in building the world's most advanced quantum systems. Previous exposure to quantum systems is not required. In this position, you will work on a service or subsystem of the control plane end to end, supporting the effective delivery of software every machine in the fleet depends on. You’ll have the opportunity to set how it behaves under failure and to move live systems onto it safely, contributing directly to the success of the System Software function. Key responsibilities include: • Own a service or subsystem end to end - API design, implementation, rollout and ongoing operational health., • Build closed-loop behaviour that acts on measured system state without a person in the loop., • Design state machines and their persistence together, so that what survives a restart is a decision rather than an accident., • Make our services behave correctly under concurrency and partial failure.Move live systems onto new behaviour without losing data or interrupting work in flight., • Evolve our APIs, and bring the clients that depend on them along., • Strengthen observability, health checking and alerting.Raise the standard of the code around you through review, and bring less experienced engineers on by working alongside them. To be successful, you will need experience building stateful services that stay correct under failure, and a track record of changing a load-bearing system while people depend on it.

Headquartered in College Park, Maryland, IonQ has operations in California, Colorado, Massachusetts, Tennessee, Washington, Italy, South Korea, Sweden, Switzerland, Canada, and the United Kingdom. Our quantum computing services are available through all major cloud providers, while we also meet the needs of networking and sensing customers across land, sea, air, and space. IonQ is making quantum platforms more accessible and impactful than ever before. Oxford, UK Hybrid We are looking for a highly technical Senior Software Engineer to join our System Orchestration team in System Software at Oxford Ionics. In this role, you will be responsible for building and operating the software that keeps our systems calibrated, decides what they do next and keeps the record of what they did, contributing to the team's mission of keeping our quantum computers running useful work around the clock. The trapped-ion quantum computers we are building will control 10,000 ions within two years, and all of that has to be kept in tune - settings that drift over minutes, hours and days. Without it a computer does not stop; it quietly starts producing invalid output. Calibration routines, scientists' experiments and customer workloads all compete for physical hardware, and our team builds the control plane that arbitrates that: it schedules and prioritises programs, hands exclusive access to one at a time and takes it back cooperatively, streams results while a program is still running, and keeps the record of everything that ran. It runs on every quantum computer in our fleet. Its job is to keep that machine busy and productive: running quantum programs rather than waiting in between, and running them in spec - on a machine still hitting the fidelity it is meant to hit. The ambition is for that to run without a person in the loop: machines that assess their own readiness, call for the calibrations they need, and keep a full history of how they were tuned. You'd work closely with the runtime team who own real-time control, the systems teams who build and maintain our quantum computers, and the operators and scientists who run them. This is a hands-on engineering role and stays that way as you grow in it. You'll play an important part in shaping the services that support our work in building the world's most advanced quantum systems. Previous exposure to quantum systems is not required. This is a hands-on engineering role, balancing delivery of your own areas with support for the teams and scientists who depend on them. Key responsibilities include: • Own a group of device controllers end to end, covering API design, implementation, rollout and ongoing operational health., • Make services robust against the ways real instruments fail., • Bring devices onto our current framework, and roll the result out across the fleet without disrupting running experiments., • Improve the shared framework where a problem turns out to be common to many controllers rather than specific to one., • Work closely with the systems teams and scientists who depend on these services, and strengthen observability, health checking and alerting., • Raise the standard of the code around you through review, and bring less experienced engineers on by working alongside them. To be successful, you will need experience building stateful services that stay correct under failure, and a track record of changing a load-bearing system while people depend on it.

Every board Lumai builds has to run multi-gigabit links and feed high-current ASIC and FPGA rails. Getting those right before the board is fabricated is the difference between a working system and a respin cycle. This role owns the modelling, the stackups, the materials and the design rules that make it work, and has a direct say in the decisions that prevent the respin. You will own signal and power integrity across our boards and packages. That means pre-layout channel studies that set routing topologies, stackups, materials and constraints; post-layout analysis of critical channels, including insertion and return loss, crosstalk, and eye and COM analysis with IBIS-AMI models; optimisation of vias, breakouts, connector launches and the transitions into our optical engines; and PDN impedance targets, decoupling strategies and DC drop analysis for high-current rails. What is genuinely hard is that the channels cross boundaries - chip, package, interposer, board and optical engine - and a model is only as good as its weakest corner. You will spend as much time at the bench as in the tool, correlating what you predicted against what the hardware does, and feeding that back into design rules. By month six, you will have signed off the critical channels on at least one board, built the model libraries and design guidelines the team reuses, and be the person whose analysis decides when a layout is ready to release. • Run pre-layout channel studies to set routing topologies, stackups, materials and design constraints for high-speed interfaces., • Carry out post-layout SI analysis of critical channels: insertion and return loss, crosstalk, and eye and COM analysis using IBIS-AMI models., • Design and optimise vias, breakouts, connector launches, and the transitions into optical engines and co-packaged components., • Set PDN impedance targets, design decoupling strategies, and run DC drop and AC PDN analysis for high-current ASIC and FPGA rails., • Support package, interposer and board co-simulation with the ASIC team to keep channel and power integrity sound end to end., • Correlate simulation with lab measurements using TDRs, VNAs and oscilloscopes, and feed the results back into models and design rules., • Evaluate and characterise PCB materials, connectors and cable assemblies with suppliers and fabricators., • Build up our SI/PI methodology, model libraries and design guidelines so they can be reused across projects., • A degree in electronic engineering, physics or a related discipline, plus proven SI/PI experience on high-speed PCB and/or package designs., • Proficiency with at least one major EM and circuit simulation suite, such as Ansys HFSS/SIwave, Keysight ADS or Cadence Sigrity/Clarity., • Strong understanding of transmission line theory, S-parameters, crosstalk, loss mechanisms and channel compliance metrics such as eye diagrams and COM., • Experience with IBIS and IBIS-AMI models for SerDes and memory interface simulation., • Solid knowledge of PDN design, including impedance targeting, decoupling optimisation and DC IR drop analysis., • Hands-on measurement with VNAs, TDRs and high-speed oscilloscopes, and the ability to correlate measurements with simulation., • 56G/112G PAM4 channels, or PCIe Gen5/6 compliance., • Package and interposer co-simulation, including chip-package-board analysis., • Low-loss PCB materials and fabrication tolerances and their effect on high-speed performance., • Scripting (Python, MATLAB) to automate simulation and post-processing. Lumai is the optical compute company building the next generation of AI infrastructure. Spun out of optics research at the University of Oxford in 2021, we compute with light instead of electrons. Our 3D optical technology carries out the matrix multiplications at the heart of AI inside beams of light travelling through free space, which lets it go beyond the limits of both silicon GPUs and integrated photonics. In April 2026 we launched Iris Nova, the world's first optical computing system to run billion-parameter large language models in real time, using up to 90% less energy than conventional GPU-based systems. Iris Nova, the first server in the family, is now available for evaluation by hyperscalers, neoclouds, enterprises and research institutions. Aura and Tetra will follow. Our work won the Falling Walls Award for Science Breakthrough of the Year 2025 and 'Best Overall Technology' at the OCP Future Technologies Symposium. We are headquartered in Oxford. You'll work on a new kind of computer. Optical computing for AI has been promised for decades. We have a working system running real models, and the hard part left is taking it to volume. Your work ships. We are moving from first product to volume production, so what you build this year goes into the servers our customers run. You'll work across disciplines. Optical engineers, machine learning researchers, and hardware and software engineers solve problems together. You will learn things that don't appear on your job description. The work matters beyond Lumai. AI's appetite for energy is one of the defining constraints of the next decade. Our mission is sustainable intelligence at global scale: AI that is faster, cheaper to run and far less power-hungry. You'll join early. You'll have a real say in how we build the product, the team and the way we work. Lumai is an equal opportunity employer. We make hiring decisions based on skills, experience and potential, and we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds. If you need an adjustment at any stage of the hiring process, let us know and we will do our best to support you. #J-18808-Ljbffr

Cluttons in Oxford is seeking a senior Building Surveyor to join our Energy Consultancy team. You will lead complex commissions, manage client relationships and mentor junior surveyors while delivering hands-on professional surveying services across energy-focused projects. You will work with engine

We’re looking for a curious, rigorous, problem-hungry platform engineer (who codes!) to carry the ball as we bring Ashby to the big leagues. Ashby builds software that lets talent teams build an efficient, delightful, respectful hiring process. Similarly, you’re an engineer who wants to build a “paved road” that excellent engineering teams can safely take to the moon and back. We have notable customers like Notion, Linear, Shopify, and Snowflake. Our growth and retention metrics are best-in-class among our peers: we have tens of millions in ARR, growing >100% year over year, over 2500 customers, very low churn, and many years of runway. We’ll share more details once we meet, but you now probably have a good idea as to why we're hiring for this role. We’ve listed this role twice: as a Platform Engineer and Site Reliability Engineer – our team does both, and we are open to candidates who lean towards one or the other. Hi I’m Colin, Head of EMEA Engineering. I’ve spent a number of years leading engineering teams in startups, and that has always included being close to infrastructure teams - no matter what name they’ve worn (SRE, infrastructure, platform, etc). I’ve got my hands dirty building the initial infrastructure for startups and know the value a talented infrastructure engineer brings. The rigour, the discipline, the peace and quiet when everything just hums along. Our infrastructure is in a good place for now. Nothing is static. Ashby continues to grow rapidly, putting strain on our existing infrastructure. We’re always looking to give our customers more powerful hiring software, and building new product features often requires new pieces of infrastructure. Having herded plenty of snowflake servers in the past, I’ve learned there’s a better way. I (and Ashby) place a lot of value on infrastructure-as-code. As a Platform Engineer at Ashby, you’ll get to dive into scaling problems, add new capabilities to our platform, and think about how our entire team interacts with infrastructure. All our own engineers own their projects end-to-end and ship with minimal oversight. We don’t put roadblocks to ensure security when common sense will do and we don’t build processes like change management boards around the lowest common denominator. But with great power comes great responsibility: we handle personal and confidential data about some of the biggest decisions we ever make at work. As we grow, more and bigger customers rely on us to be reliable and secure and how we operate internally will need to evolve. We’re at an inflection point where our ability to scale and deliver a seamless experience has a make-or-break impact – we have some of the fastest growing companies using our platform every day to hire hundreds of people per month. We need someone like you to make good decisions, debug thorny issues, and build us a future-proof platform that can withstand this scale. Our small but mighty infrastructure team has set up a secure and simple environment (we don’t believe in spinning up a new service unless necessary!) for our growing product team to build in. That’s where you come in: you, too, will own projects end-to-end and have an impact on core parts of the Ashby developer and user experience. For instance, you could work on: • Optimize our homegrown ultra-dynamic recruiting DSL-to-SQL compiler, and create tools to help developers do so, • Create automated guardrails for the security and privacy of our customer data, • Help our developers ship features fast through canary deploys, gradual rollouts and feature flags, while keeping complexity manageable and reducing downtime, • Work with the business and the engineering team to define SLOs and implement the corresponding SLIs., • Ensure all communication with external services supports retries and circuit-breakers., • Implement the infrastructure to support an event-driven architecture and data warehouse We’re looking for someone who can build systems that an engineer would like to work with: mature and boring but open-minded and approachable. We have to balance reliability with flexibility. Software and its availability are now mission critical to almost every working professional. To be in an SRE in today’s world, you have to be extremely comfortable evaluating risk, those you take and those others take. • You never stop. You get weirdly obsessed about a problem that doesn’t yet make sense, turn it every which way in your head until the explanation dawns. You’ll search every rock, inventory every clue, hunt every mismatch. We do that, too - together we’ll be armed with state-of-the-art monitoring tools and an impressive amount of data, and join you in the adventure., • You don’t take shortcuts. You’re speaking up for the future user, the edge case, the doomsday design. You know product engineers want to build it with you, and see them as allies, where you give them the power and knowledge to access greater things., • You’re someone who cares about what you do and the team you do it with, and want to work with others who do as well. You’ll be on interview panels choosing your next colleagues, and you’ll take that seriously. You only want to work with people who make you better, and want to make you better., • You’ve built infrastructure at a slightly later stage than Ashby is at - you know how to deal with millions of data points, have seen great (or not great) infrastructure make or break customer experience, and have automated everything from provisioning to monitoring and release process., • You’re a Swiss army knife (all nationalities welcome). You’ll get every hard problem the company faces. You’ll get to do infrastructure updates, security enforcements, database optimization, Kubernetes debugging, and digging through Typescript traces figuring out what doesn’t work. You probably don’t feel like an expert at at least some of that... and that appeals to you. All that makes for a pretty specific kind of role, and the job isn’t to everyone’s tastes! You should not apply if: • You don’t want to make your own decisions on what is the best paved road to build for Ashby, and expect a lead or manager to make the final call on what that is. Our leads (and managers) give ample commentary and feedback on technical decisions and how they’re made, but you ship what you want to build and are accountable for it., • You hate SQL. We have a lot of features built around making the best out of data, and our platform engineers also sometimes dive into a gnarly report or advise engineers on a more performant data model to use., • You don’t want to code. Our SREs are some of our best software engineers and they are just as responsible for the application as the other engineering teams - albeit at a platform level. Reviewing code and submitting code changes will be part of your day to day., • Your primary mode of communicating best practices to engineers is live meetings. We’re a very async culture and written communication (and code) is how changes get made. As an Ashby SRE, you will need to share new tooling and best practices with engineers faster than your next meeting opportunity will take you., • You’ve never delivered a project, on your own, without someone prodding you for updates. We have no project or delivery managers to fill your calendar with busy work, but the flip side is you have to do your project management, seek the help you need to get unstuck and cut scope when it’s worthwhile. I’m sharing our tech stack with the caveat that we don’t require previous experience in it: TypeScript (frontend & backend), Node.js, React, Apollo GraphQL, Postgres, Redis. We use Datadog and Sentry on 100% cloud-based (AWS) infra. We take developer experience and reliability seriously: all engineers are on call in a follow-the-sun model, and everyone contributes to developer tooling. As engineers, we are used to tooling that makes us better at what we do. When we started Ashby, we saw the opposite with Talent Acquisition software. Recruiting teams were leveling up how they did their work, but instead of software meeting this new standard, it held them back. Scheduling a final round is an excellent example. Recruiting teams wanted to schedule candidates faster, track interviewer preparation and quality, and do it with half the headcount. A recruiter needed to manually collect availability from the candidate, identify qualified interviewers, perform Calendar Tetris to find who is available to interview the candidate, schedule on the earliest date possible, and make any last-minute adjustments as availability changed. They must do this while considering the interview load on each individual and whether interviewers need to be trained and shadowing others. As hiring managers, we know TA is a critical function, and as engineers, we know software can do better. So, we built and continue to build Ashby to give TA teams the highest standard of tooling. Software that’s intelligent and powerful. Software that provides insights into where they’re failing and automates or simplifies many of the tasks they’re underwater with. We want other functions and departments to be jealous of what TA teams can do with Ashby, and today they often are! Our Engineering Culture Is Motivated By Abhik And Benji’s (our Co-founders) Belief That a Small Talented Team, Given The Right Environment, Can Build High-quality Software Fast (and Work Regular Hours!). We Do It Through • Minimal process with ownership over decisions normally made by product and design, • Natural collaboration and deliberate communication, • Investing in tools and abstractions that give us leverage, • Putting effort into building a diverse team The best engineers we’ve worked with delivered reliably magical outcomes. They took customer problems and relentlessly drove them to solutions that were not only successful but often brilliant and creative. While they did this with minimal oversight, stakeholders were never in the dark as to what was going on, and no setback was a surprise. Traditional product-development processes aren’t meant for the best engineers. Their purpose is to create consistent outcomes regardless of the engineer’s skill. But, consistency comes at the expense of an engineer’s time and freedom—both ingredients necessary to generate those magical outcomes. As a result, process stifles the best engineers and doesn’t give others the opportunity to practice the behaviors that made the best engineers the “best.” At Ashby, we want to build an environment that encourages every engineer to be their best. So, at Ashby, every Engineer runs their project. Product Managers (and Designers) build strategy, do customer research, and hand off problem briefs to Engineers. Engineers take on the rest: they research the problem, write product specs, build wireframes, and implement their solution end-to-end. We rely on engineers, not process, to push information outward to the relevant folks (e.g., Product Managers) and pull folks in to help (e.g., Designers, Infra). It’s a new level of ownership for many engineers, but we’d rather an engineer fail a bit and coach up their skills than use process as a crutch. Not everyone succeeds in our culture, but those who do thrive. Our engineering team consists of lifelong learners who are talented but also humble and kind. These attributes create an environment where collaboration happens naturally. We combine this with research, prototyping, and written proposals to see around corners and get feedback from the team across time zones. Focus time is something that we hold sacred, and, with thoughtful and deliberate communication, engineers are in 2h meetings per week. To Drive It Home, Here’s a Recent Calendar Of An Engineer Who Has Been With Us For Over 4 Years. ~34 Hours Of Focus Time, 2.5h Of Interviews, And 3.5 Hours Of Meetings We also meet in person at least twice a year, once as a department and once as a company. You also have a small budget to meet up with folks in your city/region. We Built Ashby With The Quality, Breadth, And Depth That Many Customers Would Expect From Much Larger Teams Over Larger Time Scales. We’ve Done This Through Investment In • Great developer tooling. Our CI/CD takes ~10m, and we deploy at least 15x a day. A debugger that works out of the box. Everyone on the team has contributed to our developer experience., • Building blocks to create powerful and customizable products fast. At the core of Ashby is a set of common components (analytics modeling and query language, policy engine, workflow engine, design system) that we constantly improve. Each improvement to a common component cascades throughout our app., • AI-powered tooling. We think of AI as a way to automate the mundane parts of building and maintaining high-quality software. We use a combination of third‑party and internally built tools that, for instance, auto-triage customer issues, suggest fixes, prototype ideas, generate production-ready code, and conduct code reviews. Engineers have an unlimited token budget (but are not measured on it). We write in detail about our philosophy, current use of AI, and future plans for AI in Engineering here. Diverse teams drive innovation and better outcomes. Having seen my mother and partner build their careers as minority women in non-diverse fields, I want to make sure Ashby creates opportunities for the next generation of engineers from underrepresented groups. Today, 25% of engineers and 50% of our engineering leaders at Ashby are from underrepresented groups. We are taking conscious steps to improve, like sourcing diverse candidates, providing generous paid family leave, no leetcode interviews, and more. At Ashby, our team and interview process want to help you show your best self. We’ll dive into past projects and simulate working together via pair programming, writing product and tech specs collaboratively, and talking through decisions. There are no leetcode or whiteboard exercises. • Introduction call with Hiring Manager (15 to 30m, live), • A technical screen where we pair in our actual codebase (1h, live), • Three non-coding interviews that focus on technical design, debugging incidents, and infrastructure (3h 15m, live can be split across multiple days) Depending on our leadership team’s bandwidth, we may start with an additional 30m screen with a recruiter. Your hiring manager will be your main point of contact and prep you for interviews. Each round will have written guidance so you know what to expect (you’ll need minimal preparation). You’ll meet 4 to 6 people in engineering (with 5-15 minutes in each interview to ask them questions). If we don’t give an offer, we’ll provide feedback! We want an exceptional onboarding experience for every new hire. At Ashby, your dev environment is set up with a single script, you push your first product change on day one, and you spend the rest of your time shipping product changes that give you a tour of our codebase and best practices. The product changes increase in scope and ambiguity from simple copy changes to the delivery of a prominent, impactful feature. Your manager will do a 30, 60, and 90-day review to give feedback and calibrate on how we work together. It’s a team effort to get you successfully onboarded; you’ll have a peer paired with you to answer questions, pair program, and check in often to see if you need help. The rest of the team will run training sessions on our culture, product, engineering process, and technical architecture. • Competitive salary and equity., • 10-year exercise window for stock options. You shouldn’t feel pressure to purchase stock options if you leave Ashby —do it when you feel financially comfortable., • Unlimited PTO, and we will encourage you to take it., • A minimum of 12 weeks of fully paid parental leave, covered by Ashby. For folks outside the US, it may be longer to be in line with regional requirements., • Generous equipment, software, and office furniture budget. Get what you need to be happy and productive!, • $100/month education budget with more expensive items (like conferences) covered with manager approval., • If you’re in the US, we offer top-tier health insurance for you and your dependents, with 100% of premiums covered by Ashby. In other countries, we provide high-quality supplemental health insurance for you and your dependents, also fully covered by us. Ashby’s success hinges on hiring great people and creating an environment where we can be happy, feel challenged, and do our best work. We’re being deliberate about building that environment from the ground up. I hope that excites you enough to apply. Ashby provides equal employment opportunities (EEO) to all employees and applicants for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, genetics, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression. We are committed to a diverse and inclusive workforce and welcome people from all backgrounds, experiences, perspectives, and abilities. Ashby is committed to a fair and transparent hiring process.

We are looking for a highly technical Senior Software Engineer to join our System Orchestration team in System Software at Oxford Ionics. In this role, you will be responsible for building and operating the software that keeps our systems calibrated, decides what they do next and keeps the record of what they did, contributing to the team's mission of keeping our quantum computers running useful work around the clock. The trapped-ion quantum computers we are building will control 10,000 ions within two years, and all of that has to be kept in tune - settings that drift over minutes, hours and days. Without it a computer does not stop; it quietly starts producing invalid output. Calibration routines, scientists' experiments and customer workloads all compete for physical hardware, and our team builds the control plane that arbitrates that: it schedules and prioritises programs, hands exclusive access to one at a time and takes it back cooperatively, streams results while a program is still running, and keeps the record of everything that ran. It runs on every quantum computer in our fleet. Its job is to keep that machine busy and productive: running quantum programs rather than waiting in between, and running them in spec - on a machine still hitting the fidelity it is meant to hit. The ambition is for that to run without a person in the loop: machines that assess their own readiness, call for the calibrations they need, and keep a full history of how they were tuned. You'd work closely with the runtime team who own real-time control, the systems teams who build and maintain our quantum computers, and the operators and scientists who run them. This is a hands‑on engineering role and stays that way as you grow in it. You'll play an important part in shaping the services that support our work in building the world's most advanced quantum systems. Previous exposure to quantum systems is not required., This is a hands‑on engineering role, balancing delivery of your own areas with support for the teams and scientists who depend on them., • Own a group of device controllers end to end, covering API design, implementation, rollout and ongoing operational health., • Make services robust against the ways real instruments fail., • Bring devices onto our current framework, and roll the result out across the fleet without disrupting running experiments., • Improve the shared framework where a problem turns out to be common to many controllers rather than specific to one., • Work closely with the systems teams and scientists who depend on these services, and strengthen observability, health checking and alerting., • Raise the standard of the code around you through review, and bring less experienced engineers on by working alongside them. To be successful, you will need experience building stateful services that stay correct under failure, and a track record of changing a load‑bearing system while people depend on it. We're looking for someone who can own a problem area with little supervision and contribute effectively within a fast moving, highly technical team., Strong systems engineering skills. Our System Orchestration layer is written in Rust, so either solid Rust experience or deep proficiency in another systems language and the appetite to work in a Rust codebase, including async programming. • Experience designing and operating networked services (such as gRPC or REST), with a real grasp of error handling, observability and failure modes., • Real experience with a relational database as a source of truth - schema design, migrations against live data, and transactions. We use PostgreSQL., • A track record of getting lifecycle and concurrency right: state machines, timeouts, leases, retries, and the failure modes that only show up under load., • Experience with a scheduler, workflow engine or job queue - Temporal, Airflow, Celery, Slurm, or one you built - or with event‑driven systems that react to changes in state., • A habit of settling design questions in writing, with options weighed as peers., • Comfort owning the production behaviour of what you build, not just its correctness in test., • Excellent communication skills both within software and across disciplines., • An interest in helping other engineers get better at the craft, without wanting to stop building yourself. Additional useful experience would include running containerised services in production, Kubernetes, distributed tracing, closed‑loop systems that act on measured state, and scientific computing or research facilities.
