About Us Axiomatic AI is building a new class of AI systems designed to reason with the rigor of the scientific method. By combining deep learning with formal logic and physicsbased modeling, we create verifiable, interpretable AI systems that collaborate with and support human researchers in highstakes scientific and engineering workflows. Our mission, 3030 To deliver a 30 improvement in the speed, accessibility, and cost of semiconductor and photonic hardware development by 2030. We aim to revolutionize hardware design and simulation in these industries and are building a team of highly motivated professionals to bring these innovations from research into commercial products. Position Overview We are seeking a Measurement Software Engineer to design and implement the software backbone of AXMeasure, the control layer powering our autonomous lab platform. In this role, you will build robust, productiongrade systems that translate highlevel AI decisions into precise, safe, and verifiable hardware commands. Your software will control millions of dollars of laboratory equipment, orchestrate parallel experimental workflows, and ensure that our selfdriving lab operates reliably under realworld conditions. You will work closely with the AI Measurement Architect and the Optoelectronic Lead Systems Engineer to operationalize measurement strategies into scalable, faulttolerant software infrastructure. Responsibilities Design and implement unified APIs and SDKs enabling AI agents to control diverse laboratory instruments (oscilloscopes, network analyzers, SMUs, signal generators, lasers, etc.) Build highconcurrency execution engines to orchestrate parallel measurements across multiple wafer chucks, cryostats, or test stations Architect scalable data ingestion pipelines and storage systems capable of handling highfrequency data streams and making them immediately queryable for AI models Implement guardrail logic and runtime validation layers to prevent unsafe hardware operations and verify AIgenerated commands Develop faulttolerant and observable systems with structured logging, monitoring, failure handling, and safe degradation mechanisms Integrate measurement outputs with modeling and analysis frameworks to enable closedloop semiconductor and photonic development Requirements B.S. or M.S. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field 4+ years of experience building productiongrade software systems Strong Python engineering experience (packaging with Poetry/UV, type hinting, decorators, context managers, modular architecture) Experience automating laboratory or industrial hardware via VISA, SCPI, TCP/IP, gRPC, or similar protocols Experience designing and maintaining SDKs, APIs, or control frameworks Experience with structured scientific data formats (e.g., HDF5) and/or timeseries databases Experience building concurrent and asynchronous systems Demonstrated experience building reliable systems where hardware safety, financial cost, or operational integrity are at stake Nice to Have Experience with Rust or C++ for performancecritical loops Familiarity with containerization (Docker) for deploying measurement runtimes Handson experience in electrooptical measurements of bare dies, wafers, packaged chips, and boards Experience with concurrent and asynchronous software systems, software testing and reliability, and productiongrade robustness (observability, failure handling, safe degradation) High agency: selfstarter, no task too large or too small attitude. What We Offer Competitive compensation Stock Options Plan: Empowering you to share in our success and growth. CuttingEdge Tools: Access to stateoftheart tools and collaborative opportunities with leading experts in artificial intelligence, physics, hardware and electronic design automation. WorkLife Balance: Flexible work arrangements in one of our offices, and sponsored visits to other Axiomatic Offices around the world. Professional Growth: Opportunities to attend industry conferences, present research findings, and engage with the global AI research community. ImpactDriven Culture: Join a passionate team focused on solving some of the most challenging problems at the intersection of AI and hardware. #J-18808-Ljbffr
