Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom Signaloid Full time

Signaloid’s innovative computing platform provides a unique solution for tracking data uncertainties dynamically and throughout computations in execution workloads. By utilizing deterministic computations on in-processor representations of probability distributions, our platform achieves significant speedups and reduces implementation costs for tasks traditionally solved using Monte Carlo methods. The platform is available as a cloud-based computing engine, allowing users to run tasks via a cloud-based task execution API. On-premises and edge-hardware implementations are also available for customers who prefer to utilize their existing on-site infrastructure or require operation without cloud connectivity.

Our platform is the most cost-effective way to engineer uncertainty quantification applications and is also the fastest way to run uncertainty quantification tasks, particularly for key use cases. Workloads ranging from options pricing and portfolio modeling in finance to uncertainty quantification for materials modeling and photonics simulation in engineering often run an order of magnitude or more faster compared to Monte-Carlo-based implementations running on high-end AWS EC2 instances.

Our team comprises contrarian engineers with combined research, engineering, and leadership experience from renowned institutions, including Apple, ARM, Bell Labs, CMU, University of Cambridge, IBM Research, MIT, NEC Labs, and University of Oxford. To learn more and explore the Signaloid uncertainty-tracking computing platform, sign up for our developer platform at https://get.signaloid.io.

Key Responsibilities

Within the first year in this role, you will focus on:

  • Improving the design and implementation of the documentation system used throughout the company, with flexibility to re-architect the system if necessary.
  • Extending the existing documentation system to incorporate video-based archival and live content for both internal- and external-facing documentation.
  • Creating internal and customer-facing documentation for existing or new functionality.
  • Setting up and maintaining CI/CD automation for checking functionality and correctness of all internal and external documentation.
  • Collaborating with the rest of the team to ensure all internal- and external-facing systems are documented and consistent.
  • Ensuring customers and other team members find the documentation complete and valuable.

After the first year in this role, you will have opportunities to:

  • Lead the company-wide documentation strategy.
  • Drive new efforts to continually adapt documentation to customer feedback.
  • Play a leading role in documentation-related training and development activities.

Requirements

To succeed in this role, you will need:

  • Good foundation with Unix, curl, Javascript, Python, and C/C++, to implement and modify basic code examples appearing in documentation.
  • Experience with HTML and Markdown.
  • Experience with documentation tools and frameworks (e.g., Docusaurus, MkDocs, ReadTheDocs, or others).
  • Ability to automate documentation processes.
  • Strong background and experience with GitHub's CI/CD functionality.
  • A willingness to listen to people until they feel understood.
  • Honesty, empathy, and a willingness to see the world from the viewpoint of others.

Desirable Skills and Experience

  • Experience with UX and design tools such as Figma.
  • Experience with Web deployment systems such as Webflow and Framer.
  • Experience with ReactJS (or similar frameworks such as VueJS or AngularJS).
  • Experience with Python and Go.
  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines.
Our Hiring Process
  • All positions require a brief cover letter not exceeding one page in length. You can substitute the cover letter with a snippet of code running on the signaloid.io platform; be creative. We use the cover letter/code snippet to screen for communication skills, as clear communication is essential in a remote working environment.
  • Applicants who pass the cover letter screening receive an initial 15-minute Zoom screening call with the CEO/CTO.
  • Applicants who pass the screening interview will be given a coding project to solve using the Free Tier of Signaloid's Signaloid Cloud Developer Platform. We will also provide you with additional free credits on the Signaloid Cloud Developer Platform. The coding exercise will be simple enough to complete in a few hours. You will have a time window of one week or two weeks (your choice) to complete the coding exercise. You are encouraged to make your implementation open source on GitHub.
  • Applicants who successfully complete the coding exercise are invited for a set of interviews with people from our core teams (there will be up to six interviewers). The interviewers will use the project you completed as a discussion point.
  • In the final stage, applicants are invited for an on-site (or 'virtual on-site') day with members of the team you are interviewing to join. During this day, we will work with you on a hands-on simulation of a real working day solving a task relevant to the position you are applying for, working with your potential future colleagues.

Benefits

  • A flexible remote-first work environment.
  • Be part of an international team with the flexibility to choose where you live, as long as you are available during the working hours of 09:00 to 17:00 UK time.
  • Join the rest of the team several times each year for an in-person session somewhere in Europe.

Competitive compensation

  • Yearly bonus based on company's Objectives and Key Results (OKR) performance and bi-yearly bonus based on your project team's OKR performance.
  • Simple transparent compensation across the company, with four pay levels, in all roles, based on skill level: Contributor, Senior Contributor, Lead Contributor, and Principal Contributor.
  • All full-time employees receive attractive stock options package.

A driven but respectful environment

  • We never speak ill of others even if we differ in our viewpoints; we show up every day with a sense of urgency; we treat each other with respect as though each day were our last.
  • No isolated 'projects': No person in the team works in isolation and a successful outcome for the thread of work you lead will inherently depend on getting help from (and helping) other members of the team.
