About CircuitHub

CircuitHub is reshaping electronics manufacturing with The Grid, a factory-scale robotics platform designed to make small-batch, high-mix electronics assembly radically more efficient. Think semiconductor-fab levels of precision applied to the chaotic world of prototyping and low-volume production. The result? A 10x throughput improvement in one of the world's most foundational industries.

We've raised $20M from top-tier investors, including Y Combinator and Google Ventures, and we're already profitable. Our customers include industry leaders like Tesla, Meta, and Zipline.

The Grid isn't a prototype. It's live, scaling fast, and delivering real revenue. We're now building the engineering core that will scale it further.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for an engineer to found our Operations Research Team. You'll tackle our trickiest scheduling and pricing optimization problems to help make the world's most efficient electronics factory. This is an incredibly high-impact role that will directly contribute to 3x revenue growth over the next year.

Who This Role Is For

This role is only suitable for someone with direct experience with operations research problems.

Example Tasks

  1. Decide what our factory should build and when
  2. Develop novel quoting algorithms
  3. Predict forward-looking revenue based on capacity

Location

Remote or work from one of our labs in the UK (London, Cambridge) or USA (Boston)

Why This Role Matters

The work of the operations research team will be critical to making electronics manufacturing economically viable in the USA and Europe. This is a career-defining opportunity for a high-agency engineer. If you thrive on ownership and solving real problems using advanced research techniques, there's no better place to be.

Key Tools & Technologies

  1. Python
  2. Google OR-Tools
  3. Gurobi
  4. MiniZinc
