About us

At Gaussion we want to reduce charging times for electric vehicles (EVs) so that they are comparable with refuelling a traditional combustion vehicle. We believe that our patent-protected technology can achieve this, meaning lower resistance, faster EV charging and longer warranties. With a rapid expansion of our London headquarters, we have several opportunities to join our team.

Role

As a Systems Engineer, you will be the person who makes everything work together. You will sit at the meeting point of hardware, firmware and software, taking on the wide variety of integration problems that come with building new technology, from bringing up a test rig to helping a customer integrate our systems with theirs. It is a hands-on, varied role for someone who enjoys solving many different problems and is comfortable working across disciplines.

Main responsibilities will include:

  • Integrate systems – bring hardware, firmware and software together into working end-to-end setups, and diagnose issues.
  • Write scripts and tooling – automate testing, data capture and setup tasks in Python (or similar), and build small tools that speed up the wider team.
  • Support customer integration – work directly with customers to integrate Gaussion’s technology into their systems, troubleshooting issues and resolving them quickly.
  • Solve the critical 5% – own the steady stream of varied, non-trivial problems that come with new technology, root-causing across disciplines and seeing each fix through to completion.
  • Build and maintain test setups – assemble, wire and configure rigs, benches and fixtures, and keep them running reliably.
  • Glue software – produce glue code and applications to connect systems, log data and expose interfaces where needed.
  • Debug in the lab – use bench instruments and logs to isolate faults.
  • Document and share – write up setups, procedures and fixes so others can repeat them, and so integration knowledge does not sit with just one person.

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.
