Requirements
  • Technical ability: We work across a wide range of engineering disciplines, all of which are high complexity. Someone with a track record of solving hard problems is a must, a background in Mechanical Engineering or similar is a plus. This role deals with breadth across the full stack, having a solid foundation in software engineering, API design and deploying applications to production is desired.
  • Proactivity & high ownership: You’ll be responsible for driving impact for our customers, whatever that might look like. We're looking for someone who is a go-getter and is naturally inclined to find problems and solve them end to end. You own the responsibility to get things done, and will pick up the skills and experience needed to solve novel problems quickly.
  • Solution-focussed: We build tools that customers need, not just the ones they want. Someone who is customer obsessed, and can work alongside our customers to understand their problems and build applications which change the way they do engineering.
Responsibilities
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams: Collaborate with data scientists and machine learning engineers to ship physics models to our customers in a way that delivers maximum value. Work with designers and front-end engineers to shape the UX in line with customer needs.
  • E2E application design: Work with customers to shape tools which are impactful for their teams. Construct low-lift prototypes of your ideas and ship them directly to the customer. Rapidly iterate on this experience through constant user feedback.
  • Backend Development: Build and maintain RESTful APIs (FastAPI) and micro services in Python to serve Large Physics Models to the end users. Working with other software engineers in our platform team, deploy these applications to the cloud so they become key tools in our customer’s day-to-day workflow. We use a mixture of Helm, Kubernetes, Terraform and AWS/Azure for provisioning and running our infrastructure.
  • PhysicsX Development: Distill down complex solutions built across multiple use cases into fundamental components. Pitch and execute the development of features on top of our core platform offering. Drive the direction of PhysicsX to be better positioned to solve ever harder problems with our customers.
