Our culture

Our shared values

The way we work together matters just as much as what we build. Our values shape how we solve problems, collaborate and support one another every day.

We think big, tackle difficult challenges and keep moving forward. We take ownership of our work, make thoughtful decisions and maintain momentum, even when the problems we're solving are complex. Whether you're a graduate or an experienced engineer, you'll be trusted to contribute, encouraged to share your ideas and supported to keep learning.

Working at Graphcore: Our Culture
Our People Team describe the best things about working at Graphcore, how the company supports team members to achieve their best and progress in their careers, as well as providing candidates some top tips for their application.

Our values give us a shared way of working – but they don't define who you are. We want you to bring your own experiences, perspectives and personality to Graphcore. It's those different ways of thinking that help us build better technology together.

Wellbeing matters

We've built a culture where people connect through shared interests, whether that's joining an ML reading group, playing board games, taking part in a book club, heading to morning yoga, lunchtime runs or after-work watersports. 

Throughout the year, you'll also find plenty of opportunities to get involved in social events and fundraising activities, including favourites like the Graphcore Bake Off.

We believe great work happens when people enjoy working together. Whether you're collaborating on a technical challenge or catching up over coffee, you'll be joining a community that's supportive, welcoming and genuinely enjoys spending time together.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

Creating an inclusive workplace isn't a separate initiative – it's part of how we work every day. We know our industry hasn't always reflected the diversity of the world around us, and we're committed to helping change that. 

We know that innovation is stronger when it reflects a wide range of experiences, perspectives and ideas. That's why we're committed to creating a workplace where everyone feels respected, included and able to do their best work.

We also know that everyone's needs are different. If you require reasonable adjustments during the recruitment process or throughout your career with us, we'll work with you to make sure you have the support you need to succeed.

From our employee communities to our partnerships with organisations such as SheCanCode, we're continuing to build a workplace where everyone can belong, grow and make an impact.
