Location: Abingdon, Oxfordshire Working Pattern: Hybrid (typically 3 days per week onsite) Are you a Software Engineer who enjoys building software that controls real-world hardware rather than websites, mobile apps or business systems? Do you have experience developing software for industrial automation, scientific instrumentation, semiconductor equipment, robotics, machine control, motion systems or other complex engineering products? At Infinitesima , software engineering sits at the heart of everything we do.

Our engineers develop the applications, control systems and operator interfaces that power sophisticated Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) inspection and metrology systems used by leading semiconductor manufacturers worldwide. As we prepare for significant growth over the next 6-12 months, we're building a network of talented Software Engineers across a range of experience levels, from early-career engineers through to Principal Engineers.

We'd love to hear from exceptional engineers who would like to be considered as future opportunities become available. Why Infinitesima? Based in Abingdon, Oxfordshire, Infinitesima develops advanced semiconductor metrology technology that is helping enable the next generation of electronics manufacturing. Our technology combines cutting-edge software, precision mechanics, motion control and nanoscale measurement science to solve some of the most challenging problems in semiconductor inspection.

We're a growing team of more than 150 scientists, engineers and business professionals, backed by world-class investors including Applied Ventures, the venture capital arm of Applied Materials, one of the global leaders in semiconductor equipment. This is an opportunity to register your interest with a company where software engineering directly influences the performance of highly advanced scientific and industrial systems.
