Atomic Machines is ushering in a new era of micromanufacturing with its Matter Compiler™ technology platform. This platform enables new classes of micromachines to be designed and built by providing manufacturing processes and a materials library that are inaccessible to semiconductor manufacturing methods. It unlocks MEMS manufacturing not only for device classes that could never be produced by semiconductor methods, but also for entirely new categories.

Furthermore, this digital platform is fully programmable in the way 3D printing is digital—but whereas 3D printing produces parts of a single material using a single process, the Matter Compiler™ technology platform is a multi-process, multi-material system: bits and raw materials go in, and complete, functional micromachines come out. The Atomic Machines team has also created an exciting first device—made possible only through the Matter Compiler™ technology platform—that we will be unveiling to the world soon. Our offices are in Emeryville and Santa Clara, California.

About The Role

: We are looking for a Supplier Quality Manager to lead the development and execution of world-class supplier quality processes for a new class of manufacturing. The Matter Compiler™ platform is the first of its kind and introduces unique quality challenges that require strong fundamentals, systems thinking, and the ability to build scalable processes from the ground up. This is a highly visible role that is critical to the success of Atomic Machine's vision.

The successful candidate will bring a deep understanding of supplier quality principles and will work cross-functionally to co-create the supplier quality strategy. They will be responsible for establishing and driving robust supplier quality processes that ensure consistent product performance, manufacturability, regulatory compliance, and customer satisfaction throughout the supplier lifecycle. In this role, you will partner closely with engineering, manufacturing, supply chain, and external suppliers to identify and mitigate risk, drive continuous improvement, and enable rapid development while maintaining high quality standards.

The ideal candidate is both hands-on and strategic, comfortable operating in a fast-paced, evolving environment, and motivated by the opportunity to define quality for a new manufacturing paradigm.
