We are hiring a Principal Software Engineer in Glasgow to help build the software behind Ultra Edge®

For decades, power and control systems have been built for the worst millisecond, not the average second — over-sized, over-built, and running at half-throttle. weeteq is changing that. Our Ultra Edge® platform predicts and controls the transient, handing back the headroom that every system has been forced to leave on the table. This is a chance to own the software that makes it happen.

The role

This is a senior, hands-on leadership role. As Principal Software Engineer you set the technical direction for our software, lead the engineers who build it, and own the development process end to end: from architecture through delivery on silicon-close, real-time systems.

You will architect the firmware and SDK for multiple third-party and weeteq MCUs, designing the timing and telemetry pipelines that manage hardware-level state transitions and system-level optimisation under dynamic AI workloads. You will lead the development of highly optimised RTOS environments, build the APIs required for system-level integration, and drive pre-silicon validation on FPGA.

Leading the software, owning the process

• Set technical direction — own the software architecture and engineering standards across embedded, real-time and ML-on-device workstreams, and make the hard trade-off calls.
• Lead the engineers — mentor and technically line-manage a growing software team, setting the bar for quality and growing people into their next level.
• Be the senior voice — represent software in leadership decisions, roadmap planning and technical due diligence with customers, partners and investors.
• Own how we build — establish and continuously improve the full development lifecycle, from coding standards and code review to CI/CD, testing and release.
• Deliver hands-on — this is a principal role, not a detached one: you stay close to the code, unblock the team, and personally own the hardest problems.

What you will work on

• Ultra-lightweight microkernel RTOS environments (Zephyr / FreeRTOS) tuned for sub-millisecond loops, with hard real-time, zero-jitter scheduling.
• Low-latency telemetry pipelines capturing voltage, current and temperature at microsecond intervals, and interrupt-driven firmware that responds to sudden events under dynamic AI loads.
• Predictive power management that keeps systems inside their thermal and power envelopes to prevent throttling.
• Hardware-in-the-loop firmware and pre-silicon validation on FPGA emulation platforms, working alongside our digital design team before tape-out.

What you bring

• Technical leadership — you set direction, lead engineers and own delivery end to end.
• Depth — expert-level C / C++ for resource-constrained, real-time targets, with a strong grasp of DSP, control systems or on-device ML.
• RTOS mastery — experienced in writing custom drivers, memory management and thread schedulers in Zephyr, FreeRTOS or proprietary real-time microkernels.
• Systems thinking — comfortable working silicon-close, across the hardware and software boundary, from concept to chip.
• AI infrastructure knowledge — familiar with the power profiles, sideband management needs and OCP standards governing AI accelerator clusters and GPUs.

Sovereign AI comes to Glasgow

weeteq was invited to pitch to the Sovereign AI team as they continued their country-wide road trip to launch the newly created £500m fund.

The weeteq hardware demo at STAC

Scotland has been leading the world in innovation for centuries, so it was great to see the Sovereign AI team at thebeyond Glasgow. Thanks to the team at STAC for hosting.

“It is genuinely encouraging to see a fund of this scale making the trip north rather than expecting everyone to come to it. There is serious depth in Scotland – semiconductor, power electronics, control systems – and a lot of it is under-capitalised rather than under-qualified. The potential here is significant if the money reaches it” – Martin MacDonald, COO

Closing our seed round

weeteq is in the final stages of a £3m seed round and is now selecting the investors who will join us for it. We are being deliberate about who comes on board – at this stage the right partners matter as much as the capital.

For anyone considering it, this is where we are:

• Ported onto tier 1 MCUs Ultra Edge® has successfully ported onto target MCUs from tier 1 providers, highlighting our light touch approach
• Independent technical validation. Best Paper in the AI/HPC category at OCP EMEA Summit 2026, and selection in the RAISE Summit Top 100.
• Ecosystem in place. Arm Flexible Access member, collaboration with NXP Semiconductors, and support from Silicon Catalyst and Scottish Enterprise.
• Four addressable markets. Data Centers, industrial automation, utilities and automotive: All facing the same underlying constraint in power and control system response.
• A defensible position. Circuit-level AI that acts before the error signal, with no external sensors, no cloud dependency and no historical training data required.

The round funds the next stage: taking Ultra Edge® from validation on silicon into customer deployment, and building out the commercial team to meet the demand we are already seeing.

Circuit-level AI on the Paris stage

We’re proud to share that weeteq has been selected as one of the Top 100 startups in RAISE the STAKES 2026, the startup competition at RAISE Summit in Paris. Chosen from over 1,500 applicants worldwide, this places weeteq among the most promising early-stage AI companies in the world — and puts circuit-level AI in front of the investors, hyperscalers and operators shaping where the technology goes next.

“Being selected from more than 1,500 companies tells us the market is starting to look past the cloud for where AI actually earns its keep. Real-time, at circuit level, inside the machine – that is where the efficiency is hiding” – Dr Taner Dosluoglu

Why a hardware company is in an AI competition

Most of the field builds in the cloud. weeteq builds inside the control loop. Ultra Edge® places machine learning at the extreme point of the network, inside the power and control systems that look after critical industries.

That distinction matters because the hardest problems in energy, mobility and compute can’t afford to wait for error signals. A grid fault, a motor drive transient, a load step in a GPU rack: by the time an error signal is seen the event is over. Ultra Edge® acts before the error signal takes place, before the error propagates.

It also runs against the grain of the AI conversation. The headline story is scale: bigger models, bigger clusters, more power drawn from a grid already under strain. weeteq’s contribution runs the other way: making the systems AI depends on measurably more efficient, more reliable and more stable.

Recognition that compounds

Thanks to our investors, pilot customers, partners and the Scottish innovation ecosystem for the continued backing — and above all to the weeteq team in Glasgow, whose work is what actually earned this.

There is more to do. Watch this space.

A rewarding day in Barcelona

We’re proud to share that weeteq has been awarded Best Paper in the AI/HPC category at the OCP EMEA Summit 2026. This is a significant recognition from one of the most distinguished communities in data centre infrastructure, and it validates the depth and direction of the work we have been doing with Ultra Edge® DIVA.

“This award represents the hardwork the weeteq team have been doing behind the scenes, this highlights the monumental opportunity for weeteq in the Data Center community” – Dr Taner Dosluoglu

What DIVA delivers

Ultra Edge® DIVA is weeteq’s dual-path power delivery architecture designed for high-performance AI and GPU/xPU workloads. The architecture pairs two parallel paths – a High Efficiency Vertical Path for bulk current delivery at greater than 91% efficiency, and an Ultra Fast Parallel Regulation Path providing sub-10ns droop correction at the point of load. The Ultra Edge Controller coordinates both paths in real time, monitoring deviation from ideal transient response and compensating dynamically.

The result is that DIVA breaks the efficiency-versus-response trade-off that has constrained AI infrastructure power delivery. The efficiency path handles sustained load where it performs best. The FAST DCM path handles the transients that bulk converters cannot respond to quickly enough, with up to 100MHz droop compensation. Neither path compromises the other.

Why the parallel path matters

The 30% gain comes directly from eliminating the voltage guardbands that conventional power architectures are forced to maintain. Where a best-efficiency two-stage solution requires 130mV droop margin at 0.8V, DIVA achieves 30mV droop at 0.7V. That 100mV regulation margin translates directly into available compute performance – more power available to the processor, not burned off compensating for the limits of the power supply.

Critically, DIVA works with existing IVR and digital LDO solutions. On-chip and in-package integrated voltage regulators can be combined with the parallel path delivery system from the outset. DIVA acts as a credible upgrade path to 800V DC environments without redesigning the GPU tray or the software stack above it.

Validation that means something

This award is external confirmation that the Hyperscaler community widely recognise the problems that DIVA looks to address.

The work behind DIVA spans power electronics, silicon architecture, control system design, and systems integration. Every person on the weeteq team has contributed to getting here, and this recognition belongs to all of them. It is a direct acknowledgement that the depth of commitment and the conviction that there is a better way to deliver power to AI compute – all of it has produced something that stands up in the room where it matters.

There is more to do. But today we take a moment to recognise what the team has achieved. Watch this space.
