Form of work Our mission at Atomic Machines is to bring autonomous bits-to-atoms manufacturing of anything at any scale to the world, and we are well on our way. We are developing an entirely new class of manufacturing foundry for micro- and nano-scale machines, and we are using that foundry to create products the world has heretofore been unable to build. Our first device has exceptionally strong and large-scale product-market fit: it is both iconic of what our platform can do and a driver of very significant enterprise scale.
Joining forces with us means becoming part of an incredibly talented, inventive and passionate multi-disciplinary team running hard to make our platform, devices and vision a reality. You will have the opportunity to help define the company from its earliest days. You'll be challenged to learn and grow as a builder and a leader as the company itself grows rapidly. And you will receive significant equity compensation - you'll truly be a company owner and benefit financially from our overall success.
Our offices are located in Berkeley and Santa Clara, California.
About the role:
We are seeking a seasoned Mechanical Engineer to join our growing team. This individual will be an expert in designing and building complex dynamic mechanical precision systems. They will contribute to the overall design of our novel robotic manufacturing platform, as well as own significant subsystems from the beginning of the product life cycle such as thin film deposition, fluid dispense, pick and place, and more.
What you'll do:
- Own and lead development and delivery of a complex robotic manufacturing subsystem.
- Work cross-functionally on complex sub-systems of our automated fabrication platform incorporating technologies such as physical vapor deposition, chemical vapor deposition, micro-fluidics, material handling, laser micromachining, lamination, conveyance systems, and more.
- Drive your work to completion with fabrication and assembly efforts leveraging our in-house lab and machine shop.
- Work in a cross-functional team of highly experienced mechanical, software, electrical, process and materials engineering peers to achieve your objectives.
- Develop compelling product architectures that are robust and extensible.
What you'll need:
- 7+ years of experience designing dynamic mechanical precision systems including actuators and motors.
- At least one successful product life cycle that you've stewarded from conception to successful market launch.
- Demonstrated experience developing products from a clean sheet.
- Solid command of engineering fundamentals, design principles, and detailed drawing.
- Strong creativity, the ability to take and manage technical risks, and lead by influencing.
- Proven track record of design leadership for product development.
- Hands-on experience designing, building, and validating automated mechanical systems.
- Demonstrated knowledge of rapid prototyping and scale production manufacturing processes (including machining, sheet metal, injection molding, etc.).
- Comfortable with all phases of product development lifecycle including design, implementation, debug, verification & validation, qualification, and transfer to manufacturing.
- Excellent written & verbal communication and presentation skills.
- Proven experience and proficiency using CAD to design and document both large and small parts and assemblies.
- Minimum B.S. (Mechanical Engineering or other related Engineering field equivalent).
Bonus Points For:
- Experience with design of physical vapor deposition systems (sputtering, thermal evaporation, electron beam evaporation).
- Experience with high vacuum system design.
- Experience with laser and optical systems.
$160,000 - $220,000 a year
The compensation for this position includes equity and benefits.
