The future is quantum. Oxford Ionics is at the forefront of pioneering quantum computing, delivering world-leading innovation to create the most powerful, accurate, and reliable quantum systems. Quantum computing offers a radically new way of building computers that harnesses the power of quantum physics to outperform conventional supercomputers exponentially. Using our unique trapped-ion technology, we are leading the race to unleash quantum computing's unparalleled potential. What To Expect: We are looking for a skilled, motivated Software Engineer to join the Software team. This is the team responsible for creating and maintaining the code base and the software infrastructure needed to operate our quantum computer and test systems and to facilitate their research and development. This entails writing and maintaining code that runs on the embedded platforms that power the laboratory hardware, as well as code for regular server and workstation systems. The team works together with our science teams to enable them to do fast development and experimentation. The team also produces the production-grade software stack that will allow our future users to run quantum algorithms on our systems. This is an exciting opportunity to work alongside scientists, engineers, and technicians. See vacuum chambers, cryostats, lasers, and more in action at our on-site laboratories and play your part in making quantum computing happen. What You'll Be Responsible For: With support from the rest of the team, you will be expected to productively contribute to the development of our code base. This includes a wide variety of exciting work, from developing our quantum compiler to writing embedded firmware, from designing high-level APIs as part of our quantum computing stack to advancing our internal development infrastructure and process. We don’t expect you to be an expert in these fields, but you should feel excited about becoming one. Our Technology Stack: Python and Rust Much of our software is used by our scientists when executing routines on our quantum hardware. The APIs used by the scientists are all Python-based. We are developing a custom-optimising compiler for quantum circuits written in Rust and Python. The firmware components of the instrumentation and control system we use, ARTIQ, are written in Rust. We will be customising and extending this firmware to improve performance and add new features. FPGAs and SoCs We’ll develop custom hardware and gateware to extend our hard real-time (Qubits The quantum core of our hardware is built from trapped-ion qubits, controlled by chips designed and assembled in-house by our microfabrication team.

Head of Reagent Development633932780263691217

Head of Reagent Development

We’re developing diagnostics at the speed of life. Want to lead the team building the reagents that make it possible? At LEX Diagnostics, we’re pioneering ultra-fast PCR at the point of care bringing lab standard performance to GPs, emergency departments, and field settings with the LEX VELO platform. Our Biology team is at the heart of that innovation, and we’re looking for a Head of Reagent Development to lead the charge on all things lyo. This is a role for someone who’s hands on, technically excellent, and thrives in a leadership position. Someone with deep experience developing and scaling qPCR/RT-qPCR reagents, and a real track record in lyophilisation. If you know your way around freeze drying cycles, enzyme stability, and you’re motivated to turn that into something with real global impact, we’d love to hear from you. What you’ll be doing As Head of Reagent Development, you’ll be responsible for the design, optimisation, validation, and transfer to manufacture of our LEX VELO reagent systems, both wet and lyophilised. You’ll lead and grow a team of experienced molecular biologists and biochemists and work closely with production, assay development and engineering teams to ensure reagents are not just effective, but fully integrated with our platform. You'll balance hands on lab work with project management, team mentorship, and strategic input into our wider product development. And you’ll do all this in a fast moving, ISO13485-aware environment, working with real purpose toward a high impact product launch. Requirements What we’re looking for A PhD (or equivalent experience) in molecular biology, biochemistry or related field Substantial experience developing reagents for qPCR/RT-qPCR assays Deep, hands-on experience in lyophilisation: from formulation to equipment maintenance and cycle development A background in nucleic acid extraction A confident leader with experience managing teams and projects, including under time pressure Strong documentation and communication skills, particularly in a regulated (ISO13485) environment Experience working in BSL-2 labs and a thorough understanding of biosafety and lab control measures Ability to critically evaluate data, troubleshoot experiments, and guide others to do the same Benefits What you’ll get from us This is a rare opportunity to lead a high-impact function in a growing, ambitious diagnostics company, and play a pivotal role in the commercialisation of a system designed to transform how infections are diagnosed globally. You’ll work with a talented, mission driven team, and you’ll be supported to grow both technically and as a leader. You’ll also get A collaborative and scientifically rich environment A clear product focus (we’re here to ship, not just research) Autonomy in how you and your team deliver The chance to shape a core part of our platform's success Who are we and what does the future hold for you? LEX Diagnostics was founded in 2020. Our innovative system integrates effortlessly into primary care settings, bringing PCR-level sensitivity to urgent care centres, physicians, labs, and pharmacies, all at a significantly lower cost per test than other molecular platforms. 2025 is a milestone year for us as we’ve just submitted dual 510(k) CLIA waiver applications to the U.S. FDA. This means you will be an important part of a high impact launch that will enhance your future career credentials. The Future In December 2023, QuidelOrtho invested in LEX Diagnostics, which included the exclusive option to acquire the company up to or shortly after 510(k) clearance by the FDA. In QuidelOrtho, we have an investment partner that recognises the capabilities of our team, and are excited for what we can continue to build together... We are optimistic to receive 510(k) clearance in late 2025 or early 2026. What this means for you More Resources - Manufacturing scale, regulatory & distribution infrastructure R&D Focus - Concentrated innovation around LEX platform and test menu Career Mobility - As well as creating a cross-disciplinary development environment in science and engineering, LEX employees can transition into broader roles (e.g., regulatory affairs, global supply chain, sales, clinical affairs) across the integrated organisation. Global Exposure - International workflows & markets (US & EU) Impact & Stability - Increased product reach and organisational strength Development - Structured programs and training opportunities 2026 should see the elevation of the LEX Diagnostics team from startup environment into a well-supported, international diagnostics powerhouse without sacrificing the very thing that made our team successful, innovation. You’ll help drive forward a unique, market-leading platform within a growing team that needs to invest in your development and career growth. Our working culture encourages entrepreneurship, shared ideas, and technical collaboration, while providing you the freedom to do your best work.
