Help us solve one of the world’s most challenging manufacturing problems

Who are we

We’re a company that is driving the 4th industrial revolution by bringing AI to the world’s most advanced factories.

We are world-class optimization engineers; product designers and data scientists; mathematicians and marketers. From people who have started their own businesses (like a craft beer pub in Seoul), to Oxbridge & Imperial alumni, swing dancers and pro rugby players.

We are people from all walks of life - but with one unified belief: that our product can change manufacturing forever. Whether you’re a curious student, an ambitious graduate or an experienced developer (just to name a few), our opportunities will see you gain meaningful experience working alongside some of the best minds in the industry, all whilst finding out what yours can really do.

Be part of a revolution.

Our technology has the potential to change the way the semiconductor industry manufactures its products forever. We are enabling some of the most advanced facilities in the world efficiently create microchips for anything from cars to rockets.

But what do we do, exactly?

We’re solving the most complex manufacturing problems for some of the world’s most advanced facilities. But if you’re new to the semiconductor industry, you might be wondering what that means. Let us break it down and explain:

What's in it for you?

Here are the measures we take to make sure everyone in our company is happy with their role, their work-life balance and where their career is heading:

  • Stock Options: so when we make it big, so do you!
  • 25 days annual holiday leave plus an extra day each year after 2 years of service (capped at 30).
  • We offer a cycle to work scheme, season ticket loan and discounts on shopping, travel and cinema through CharlieHR.
  • WFA: Flexciton offers a 2 weeks ‘work from anywhere’ allowance – so you can work anywhere in the world!
  • Learning and development opportunities.
  • A constantly evolving office library – full of great books to expand your knowledge on a range of topics.
  • A £500 annual personal allowance for every employee which can go towards specialised training courses, qualifications and much more.
  • A fully stacked fruit and snack bowl to keep you well fueled!
  • Tasty Tuesdays! Once a month, your lunch is on us.
  • Quarterly team activities or dinners
  • A range of regular social activities, such as football or boxing.
  • Annual Team Trip! Every year, we take our whole team on a retreat to bond, strategise and relax. Barcelona, Albufiera... where next?

Our commitment to diversity

Flexciton has grown significantly over the past few years, yet promoting a diverse group of individuals has always remained very important to us. We are extremely proud to say that our talented team come from 20+ countries around the world and speak multiple different languages – from Polish to Greek to Chinese. Wherever you are from, you'll feel at home here.

How to thrive here

Our core values are woven into everything we do here at Flexciton. They are they key to our success and our thriving culture. Click on a value to learn more.

Optimization is at our core

A meeting, project or a new feature of our software – regardless of what we do or work on, we always aim to achieve the best possible outcome, with a reasonable amount of effort.

We encourage continuous improvement

We cultivate self evaluation and feedback as ways to learn, grow and progress. When giving feedback, we make sure it’s constructive and actionable. We learn from failures by embracing mistakes and altering the way we work.

Grit is our vehicle to success

We are here because we care about what we do. We thrive in challenges and we take accountability for results. We add value by taking ownership and navigating through them individually and as a team.

We embrace change and adapt

To thrive in an ever-evolving environment, we must be agile and adaptable. Before introducing any change, we gather information and evaluate facts. Once the change is decided, we support it collectively.

Our work is determined by our clients' needs

Developing something purely based on individual assumptions can be a waste of time and effort. Before even starting, we validate if the work we’re about to do, is what our external or internal clients really need.
