About OLIX
AI is growing faster than any technology in history and the explosion in demand has created a massive infrastructure gap; we can no longer build chips or power stations fast enough to keep up. The industry is still leaning on a ten-year-old hardware blueprint that has reached its limit. A new paradigm that is faster and more efficient will be the biggest economic opportunity of the next century and create the most important company of the next decade. The OLIX Decode Accelerator 1 (DX-1) is the first accelerator architected specifically for decode. Rack-scale co-design of logic, data movement, packaging, optics and interconnect enables a step change in system level performance.
The Role
We’re implementing a new business ERP and manufacturing MES platform, and there’s significant customisation required to make it fit how OLIX actually operates. We’re looking for an ERP Programmer to work hands-on with the platform: configuring, customising, and integrating it so it reflects our real business and manufacturing processes rather than a generic template. This is a foundational hire on our ERP build-out, based out of our London HQ, with real scope to grow as the implementation, and your ownership of it, expands.
Responsibilities
Support the definition of OLIX business processes across finance, operations, and manufacturing
Deliver ERP customisations that implement those business processes in the system
Establish system connectivity between the ERP and other OLIX business tools (e.g. PTC Windchill, REST APIs)
Work closely with functional stakeholders (finance, supply chain, manufacturing) to translate process requirements into working ERP configuration and custom development
Help establish good practice for how we build, test, and maintain customisations as the implementation scales
Skills & Experience
Hands-on experience developing or customising an enterprise ERP platform, gained as a consultant or implementer at an ERP partner/reseller, or in-house at a company running a major ERP
Solid understanding of ERP architecture: extensibility/customisation frameworks, workflows, business process configuration, and reporting
Experience integrating ERP/MES platforms with external systems via REST APIs and other integration methods
Comfortable working directly with SQL/PLSQL or similar to extend data models and reporting
Able to work directly with non-technical business stakeholders to turn process needs into system solutions
Self-starter who’s comfortable with real ownership early on, in a fast-moving, high-growth environment
Nice to have
Experience with PTC Windchill or similar PLM systems, and integrating PLM with ERP
Exposure to MES/manufacturing shop-floor processes: production orders, traceability, quality, inventory, planning
Experience in a hardware, industrial, or manufacturing business rather than a purely SaaS environment
Prior experience in a startup or scale-up going through its first major ERP implementation
Compensation & Equity
Competitive salary: commensurate with experience, skills, and location
Equity & Ownership: meaningful stock options, you’re not just joining the mission, you’re owning a piece of it
Due to U.S. export control regulations, candidates’ eligibility to work at OLIX depends on their most recent citizenship or permanent residency status. We are generally unable to consider applicants whose most recent citizenship or permanent residence is in certain restricted countries (currently including Iran, North Korea, Syria, Cuba, Russia, Belarus, China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Venezuela). Applicants who have subsequently obtained citizenship or permanent residency in another country not subject to these restrictions may still be eligible.

- Experience in a startup or scale-up implementing its first major ERP system
What We Do
The latest generation of AI models achieve breakthrough performance by using vastly more tokens to solve complex problems. As frontier models become more sophisticated, demand is compounding faster than today’s infrastructure can scale. Even the most dominant players, with full-stack control across silicon, software, and supply chains, are unable to solve this within the existing architecture. Inherent constraints in physical design and packaging mean a GPU-based approach is incapable of simultaneously delivering high throughput and high interactivity at low cost. Continuing AI’s advance and making it available to everyone requires a new compute paradigm. One that can overcome the fundamental limits of memory, energy, and speed that define today’s systems. If you like working on difficult and consequential problems, we want you at OLIX. We have offices in London, Austin, Toronto, San Francisco and Bristol.
