Hiring: Junior Engineer

Despite the big talk from the like Messrs Alan and Zuckerberg and product hype from Devin and Cursor the reality is that AI still can’t do the job of a junior engineer. At least not at HMx Labs. So we’re hiring.

You’ll be working directly alongside me and be exposed not only to clients but also projects in HMx Skunkworks ;)  The role is entirely HPC focused with a particular focus on our financial services clients. The role is hybrid in nature (London based) but does not have set days in the office.

At this point we can all agree that hiring processes are pretty broken, so here’s the deal. We won’t use AI or CV parsing and keyword tools to sift through the applications if applicants only bother to apply if they meet the criteria below and ensure their CV and/or LinkedIn profiles actually showcase their skills in these areas

Anyone applying with a recommendation from someone that has worked with HMx Labs goes to the top of the pile.

What are we looking for?

• You must have the right to live and work in the UK indefinitely
• At least one year of experience working as a software engineer. Paid full time employment.
• Knowledge and commercial experience with at least one of the following languages: Java, C#, Python (with OO)
• Knowledge of one non managed memory language
• Ideally some exposure to HPC
• Ideally some experience working in financial services technology
• You must have at least one of the two (HPC or financial services)

Let’s see how this goes. Applications on the LinkedIn job posting or by email to [email protected]

If we get inundated with applicants that clearly don’t match any of the criteria above I reserve the right to break out the AI (or maybe just bash and grep) 😁

Up to £60k/year for the right candidate.
