About Atomic Tessellator
We are building a sovereign future by empowering companies and nations to achieve materials breakthroughs, enhance product performance, and secure supply-chain independence through the development of the most powerful first-principles simulation platform for engineering materials research.
We’re a seed-stage company with a headcount of five, and have been around for a little over a year. In this time, we have:
- Built a distributed worker architecture to modularise computational materials science operations.
- Scaled machine-learned interatomic potential (MLIP) models to enable multi-GPU inference, letting us model up to 700,000 atoms
- Completed pilot projects across aerospace, defence, nuclear fusion, and advanced polymers.
- Discovered (and are in the process of patenting) two materials, one of which is a high-temperature rare earth magnet substitute.
How we operate
- Speed is our bread and butter, bias-to-action is our competitive edge.
- We’re constantly error-correcting, and balance explore/exploits.
- We say what we think and do what we say.
About the role
The Atomic Tessellator platform is a virtual lab that lets us simulate almost anything there is to know about an engineering material's properties; i.e. we can predict its performance prior to any physical testing done in a lab. This is typically a field dominated by academia, who often aren't strong software engineers. We're challenging the field of computational materials science, which is usually synonymous with fortran, text on a terminal, and 500-page pdf documentation.
We're seeking a senior front-end developer to take full ownership and responsibility of our platform application's front-end. You'll have autonomy, the opportunity to grow and build something great with us.

^ Here's an example of what our platform does. You're seeing a PKA (
primary knock-on atom
effect) simulation on 50Å of tungsten inside a nuclear fusion reactor.
The application is built with Vue.js, Vite, Typescript, Pinia, Cytoscape.js, Chart.js, D3.js, Three.js, and WebGL.
- We're seeking someone with exceptional taste, and the ability to champion this taste internally to hold everyone to a high standard. We'll engage with a design agency in the future to build a cohesive brand and design language.
- Advanced in Vue.js an laterally relevant technologies - you should be fluent with reactivity, components, directives, lifecycle hooks etc. Advanced state management in Pinia, etc.
Given you'll be taking ownership, we want to trust your judgment and do what you think is best. It'll be your codebase, and to your tastes and liking. We're not scared to tear things down and build them again. We compete on velocity.
To apply, please send your application to careers@atomictessellator.com. Include "Lead Engineer, Front-end" in the subject line of your email.
