About Delta.g
Delta.g is a UK quantum technology company developing gravity sensing tools that unlock real-time spatial intelligence. Our sensors allow users to see what lies beneath the surface of the Earth using gravity alone, revealing hidden sinkholes, old mine workings, and buried infrastructure without digging. Spun out of the University of Birmingham, our technology is new, powerful, and close to commercial deployment. We have just raised £4.6 million in investment led by Serendipity Capital, NSSIF, and SCVC, and are scaling rapidly. We are building our team in partnership with Reedmace Talent, experts in helping tech companies scale through in-house hiring. We do not use recruitment agencies, we hire directly.
