Would you like to help shape the future of Semiconductor Metrology?
At Infinitesima, we're redefining what's possible in nanoscale measurement.
Our pioneering Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) technology enables semiconductor manufacturers to see more, measure faster and unlock process insights that conventional metrology techniques simply cannot achieve.
Infinitesima is rapidly expanding across North America, Europe and Asia. From our headquarters in Abingdon, Oxfordshire, we're building the next generation of semiconductor metrology solutions alongside some of the industry's brightest minds.
As global demand for our technology continues to accelerate, we're building an ongoing pipeline of exceptional Applications Engineering talent across multiple locations worldwide.
Whether you're an ambitious graduate starting your career, an experienced applications specialist, or a recognised technical leader within semiconductor metrology, we'd love to hear from you.

Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
