At D-Pace, we envision a world where accelerator technology and meaningful human connection combine to make life better. To stay at the leading edge of ion source innovation, we know it takes individuals who can tackle not only complex technical challenges, but also the human social dynamics that come with them.

Industries we serve.

D-Pace supplies products to the international commercial particle accelerator industry. To serve industries as diverse as semiconductor, medical diagnostics and therapies, fusion and fission energy, and discovery science, our team applies unique knowledge, skills, curiosity, and care to solve customer challenges and create groundbreaking solutions that have a meaningful impact on society.

Core mindset.

  • Scientific Mindset: We look for people that consider perspectives fairly, verify data, test assumptions, update knowledge with evidence, and correct errors quickly. We calibrate our confidence by naming uncertainty, matching certainty to evidence, inviting challenge, and adjusting conviction as new information emerges.
  • People Mindset: We look for those that understand people can grow and change. People change by considering, and testing the emotions, reasons and desired outcomes holding our current behaviour in place. We believe in the value of difficult conversations to challenge, re-think and move the status quo. We believe in entrusting people with the authority, ownership, and confidence to enact organizational change.
  • Leadership Mindset: We look for those with the tenacity for moving forward and growing together in service of a bold shared purpose. We understand that leadership means helping others so they no longer need us and become more capable than us. Leadership is not defined by title or direct reports; it is demonstrated through initiative, setting a positive example, influencing across and up the organization, and taking ownership for advancing our collective success.
  • Innovation Mindset: We are looking for people who understand how to hold tension until a relevant, well-considered solution emerges, and who persevere in pursuing better outcomes. We see innovation as the continuous pursuit of better ways to create value, challenge assumptions, and solve meaningful problems. This is what is meant by ‘more beam!’.
