MONUMENTAL | https://www.monumental.co/ | Amsterdam, The Netherlands | Full Time | Onsite

We make robots that autonomously construct buildings, starting with bricklaying.

There's a lot of vapourware in robotics, but we're deploying robots across multiple concurrent sites today - and generating revenue. In the last couple of months, our robots have built affordable social housing, health care living units, canal walls in the historic city centre of Amsterdam, and a youth sports centre. Help us to build things that matter in the long run.

We're looking for experienced software engineers for many roles. You can help us solve problems like:

- Data sync and analytics queries across a fleet of robots (that can be offline for hours at a time)

- Modelling buildings in code and finding the right UI for operators to edit them

- Designing systems for robots to drive safely and fully autonomously around a building site

Check out the progress we've already made on Atrium, our operating system for robotics: https://www.monumental.co/atrium

We're rapidly scaling up operations (recently announced our Series B!) and we need experienced engineers who can build the systems that manage all of that complexity. If you think that 'full-stack' could reasonably mean debugging firmware, mixing buckets of mortar _and_ writing React components, we are looking for you. Robotics experience not required!

Elucid | Senior Security Engineer | Boston, MA | ONSITE (hybrid) | $130k–$170k | https://elucid.applytojob.com/apply/GaiNUaxbuO/Senior-Securi...

Elucid builds FDA-cleared AI software that analyzes cardiac CT scans to characterize plaque and predict heart attack and stroke risk. The world's best cardiologists use our output to make treatment decisions for real patients. As such, our platform is regulated as a Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) product by the FDA and we operate under HIPAA, ISO 13485, and ISO 27001.

We are looking for: 5+ years of experience in security engineering, application security, or a closely related software engineering role with a strong secure coding background, including fluency in cloud infrastructure security, common vulnerability classes (OWASP Top 10 and beyond), authentication, and cryptography fundamentals. Healthcare or regulated-industry experience is a plus, but not a requirement.

Unitary Foundation | Member of Technical Staff, Fault Tolerant Quantum Compilation + Simulations | REMOTE (US) | Full-time

Unitary Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit research group building a quantum technology ecosystem that benefits the most people. We build open-source infrastructure for quantum computing — current projects include Mitiq, UCC, and Clifft — and run community programs like microgrants and unitaryHACK.

We're hiring an MTS to help define and build our open-source compilation and simulation stack: compilation, simulation, error mitigation, resource estimation, benchmarking, and early fault-tolerant workflows. You'll join a small technical team doing research through sponsored collaborations with national labs, universities, and industry partners. The role is about technical ownership — forming a technical point of view, proposing roadmaps, and building tools that become useful shared infrastructure. There's also room to experiment thoughtfully with AI-assisted research workflows.

We're looking for a track record of building software other people use (ideally open source), a strong background in quantum computing (fault tolerance, error correction, compilation, simulation), and strong Python; C++/Rust is a plus. A PhD is one possible background for this role, but not required.

Lokker.com | Senior Backend Engineer, Scanning Infrastructure | REMOTE: North America / Europe, UTC-8 to UTC+2 | Full-time

Lokker is a privacy platform that helps organizations understand and control what is happening across public-facing infrastructure: websites, browser-side applications, scripts, pixels, cookies, tags, forms, SDK/API calls, and browser-side data flows.

We are hiring a senior backend engineer to own and continue to scale Lokker’s scanning infrastructure. This role focuses on backend systems for high-volume website scanning, browser automation, distributed scanning, networking, reliability, performance, and cost optimization.

IMPORTANT: A key requirement for this role is substantial, hands-on production experience with browser automation, headless browsers, crawlers, scanners, synthetic monitoring, scraping infrastructure, or closely related technologies. This is not a general backend role, and we can only consider candidates who have already built, operated, or scaled systems in this domain.

Other relevant experience includes distributed systems, queues/orchestration, high-scale backend services, HTTP/TLS/DNS, proxies, CDNs, WAFs, bot detection, and fingerprinting.

Production experience in Go, Rust, TypeScript/Node.js, C++, or similar.

Aqora Quantum | Sr Full-Stack Engineer (Rust + React) | Paris ONSITE or REMOTE (EU) | €70-90k + equity | https://aqora.io

Aqora Quantum is building the algorithm layer of quantum computing: the place where people develop, share, and orchestrate quantum workflows. Hardware gets most of the attention, but the algorithms and the tooling around them are where the field actually becomes useful, and today that work is scattered across notebooks and one-off scripts. We host versioned datasets and reproducible benchmarks so results are comparable, and give teams a way to publish a workflow that someone else can pick up and run. Think Kaggle/Hugging Face, but for quantum. We're a small but growing team, having just raised our seed round, and we're now extending into the US.

We're looking for one senior full-stack engineer. You'd own features end to end: GraphQL API and services in Rust, React/TypeScript frontend, plus the runner that executes user-submitted workflows against simulators and real backends.

You don't need a quantum background, but you do need to enjoy going deep on an unfamiliar technology and getting productive in it fast. That happens here constantly, and we'll give you the time and the people to learn it properly. Beyond that: production Rust you've shipped and maintained, and real comfort across the stack.

Onsite in Paris or remote anywhere in the EU. If you're not in Paris, expect to join us there regularly for team weeks.

Email jannes@aqora.io with a CV or GitHub, mention HN. Happy to answer questions in the thread too.

Viteus | Contract Engineer Opportunities — AI Production Support (Full-Stack, AI/ML, QA, DevOps) | REMOTE | Contract

Viteus is Alteus's production support service for AI-built applications, delivered in partnership with vitX. We work with enterprises and scale-ups across APAC to audit, refactor, and support AI-built apps in production.

When we win client engagements, we match contractors from the network onto projects based on skills fit, availability, and role requirements.

The Opportunity:

We are inviting independent contractors with experience across the following disciplines to register interest for matching against upcoming client engagements:

  Full-Stack Engineering
  AI/ML Engineering
  QA / Test Engineering
  Test Managers / Test Leads
  DevOps Engineering

What You Will Do

  Work on production-grade AI applications for enterprise clients across APAC.
  Contribute to audit deliverables: risk shortlists, architecture assessments, vulnerability lists, smoke tests, AI risk flags.
  Support refactor and stabilisation work on AI-built apps handed over from client teams.
  Operate day-to-day inside a modern AI toolchain — Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, agent frameworks, and MCP-based workflows are standard.
  Report into a senior lead who owns delivery quality and client communication

Proxima Fusion | Senior Software Engineer (Dev Platform) | Munich, Germany | ONSITE | Full-time

We're building the world's first commercial stellarator fusion power plant. First spin-out from the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics, based on Wendelstein 7-X (the largest stellarator ever built), €650M+ raised, teams in Munich, Zurich and Oxford.

Finding a good stellarator design means searching an enormous high-dimensional space, and every candidate design needs heavy plasma physics simulation. That's the compute problem this role owns: cloud + HPC clusters, K8s, Ray, Dask, and the platform work around it (CI/CD, IaC, observability). You'd sit directly next to the physicists and AI researchers burning through that compute, so you see exactly what your infrastructure unlocks. Python and Linux.

If you've wanted to point your platform engineering skills at something that actually matters, clean, abundant energy, this is about as direct a shot as it gets, and it's happening in Europe.

Interview process: recruiter call, technical screen, technical panel, CEO call.
