Description
Infrastructure Engineer (SRE)
Department: Engineering – Infrastructure
About Atomic Industries
Atomic Industries is reinventing how the world makes things. From cars and aerospace systems to medical devices and packaging, most physical goods begin life in a mold or are shaped by a manufacturing tool. Producing these tools has always been slow, manual, and dependent on scarce expertise, taking weeks or months. We’re changing that.
At our Detroit headquarters, we combine the industrial DNA of America’s manufacturing heartland with the speed, intelligence, and precision of Silicon Valley. Our AI-driven platform tackles the hardest problems in geometry, process planning, and fabrication, collapsing production timelines from months to days and soon, minutes. We don’t just build software; we run a fully operational factory where our technology produces production-grade tooling every week, enabling tight feedback loops and rapid iteration.
Backed by top-tier investors, we’re restoring speed, flexibility, and capability to the American industrial base. Our mission is to make manufacturing as agile and scalable as the digital world, and in doing so, rebuild the infrastructure of the physical economy.
About the Role
As an Infrastructure Engineer at Atomic, you’ll own the systems that power high-performance simulation, geometry processing, and factory automation. You’ll be responsible for building and maintaining the hybrid infrastructure that spans cloud, on-prem, and GPU compute environments.
This role is ideal for engineers who thrive at the intersection of reliability, performance, and engineering velocity.
What You’ll Do
-
Manage and improve CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Terraform, HashiCorp stack)
-
Orchestrate compute workloads across cloud and bare-metal GPU clusters
-
Design systems for secure, fault-tolerant deployment and observability
-
Build internal tooling to accelerate developer workflows and operations
-
Partner with engineers on simulation, ML, and backend teams to scale infrastructure
-
Monitor and tune system performance under high computational loads
What We’re Looking For
Minimum Qualifications
-
5+ years in DevOps, infrastructure, or site reliability engineering
-
Proficiency with container orchestration (Nomad, Kubernetes), IaaC, and Linux
-
Strong scripting and programming skills (Python, Bash, Go)
-
Experience with hybrid (cloud + on-prem) infrastructure
-
Familiarity with distributed systems, caching layers, and observability tools
Bonus Points
-
Background supporting ML, simulation, or HPC workloads
-
Experience managing large GPU fleets or multi-node compute tasks
-
Security or compliance experience (ITAR, SOC2, CMMC)
-
Track record of building tooling for high-autonomy engineering teams
How We Work
-
Fast iteration: We deploy code daily and validate it in the factory every week
-
Factory-first mindset: Engineers spend time on the shop floor to understand the real-world impact of their work
-
Low ceremony, high ownership: We value well-written design docs, tested code, and real results — not meetings
-
Collaborative culture: Geometry, AI, and robotics teams are tightly integrated and co-develop the product together
Benefits
-
Competitive salary and generous equity package
-
Full medical, dental, and vision coverage for employees and dependents
-
401(k)
-
PTO with a 15-day minimum
-
Quarterly team travel to Detroit
-
Visa support for TN, E‑3, and O‑1 candidates
-
Hardware stipend and on-site prototype lab access
Benefits
- health insurance
- vision insurance
- 401(k)
- paid time off
- stock options
About this role
Atomic Industries is looking for an Infrastructure Engineer to build and operate the systems behind its AI-driven manufacturing platform. You'd own hybrid infrastructure spanning cloud, on-premises, and GPU compute environments—managing CI/CD pipelines, orchestrating workloads across bare-metal and cloud clusters, and designing systems for secure, fault-tolerant deployment. The role demands someone comfortable with container orchestration, infrastructure-as-code, Linux, and scripting, with at least five years in DevOps, infrastructure, or site reliability engineering.
What makes this different from typical infrastructure roles is the manufacturing context. You'd be supporting high-performance simulation, geometry processing, and factory automation that directly feeds back into Atomic's operational factory in Detroit. The company values engineers who understand real-world impact—you'll spend time on the shop floor and work closely with simulation, ML, and backend teams to scale systems under intense computational loads. Experience with GPU fleets, HPC workloads, or ML infrastructure is a significant advantage, as is any background in security compliance (ITAR, SOC2, CMMC).
The position is full-time and hybrid based in Detroit, with a culture built on daily deployments, low ceremony, and high ownership. You'd have access to on-site prototyping labs and hardware stipends, alongside standard benefits including competitive salary, equity, medical coverage, and a 15-day PTO minimum. The company also offers visa support and quarterly team travel.
Typical pay for this role
$140,000
Typical range: $100,000 to $140,000
