This full-stack technology enables new classes of micromachines to be designed and built by offering manufacturing processes and a materials library that is inaccessible to semiconductor manufacturing methods. It promises to unlock MEMS manufacturing for the many device classes frustrated by semiconductor methods and to open up entirely new product classes. The Matter Compiler™ technology fully realizes the digital manufacturing dream: bits and raw materials go in, and complete, functional micromachines come out.

The Atomic Machines team has also created an exciting first device—one that was only made possible by the existence of the Matter Compiler™ technology—that we will be unveiling to the world soon. Our offices are in Emeryville and Santa Clara, California. About the Rol e We are looking for a well-rounded, experienced electrical engineer who enjoys working in an agile environment.

We expect our engineers to be self-motivated, willing and capable of making decisions based on incomplete information, and to have a get-it-done attitude. The main line of work will be to build and integrate machine control systems for our custom manufacturing nodes. Our system is built around a multiprocessor architecture with distinct processors handling networking, general machine control, and specialty controls like vision and motion.

Interconnect selection, prototype cabling, and bring-up firmware are also important aspects of the job. We emphasize modularity for reuse to speed up subsequent builds of nodes with similar needs.

What You'Ll Do

: Participate in system architecture definition and drive electrical architecture Design and build custom electronics for our automated manufacturing systems Integrate third-party electronics Support the building of engineering fixtures Create and maintain component and module libraries for reuse Generate manufacturing data and interact with vendors Work closely with embedded systems, software, and mechanical engineering teams What You'll Need: 5+ years of experience as an Electrical Engineer Maker mentality, being hands-on to quickly build, integrate, and test proof of concepts Schematic entry, layout, and library management (Altium Designer preferred) Excellent bring-up and debugging skills Ability to write bring-up code for processors in C/C++ and test scripts in Python Strong background in mixed-signal circuit design Power electronics design and bring-up experience Familiarity with a range of sensors and actuators SPICE simulation knowledge SMD soldering skills, familiarity with test and measurement equipment Good working knowledge of signal integrity, EMI, and ESD handling Cable harness design Good documentation habits A first-principles mindset—questioning assumptions, reframing problems from the ground up, and approaching challenges with foundational understanding rather than relying solely on precedent.
