Job Description

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.

What You'll Need :

  • You know how to talk to research engineers, manufacturing technicians, and applications engineers to get the info you need and translate it into clear, concise documentation.
  • You are comfortable talking to and questioning people in all parts of the organization at all levels.
  • Basic understanding of content development cycles and documentation best practices.
  • Ability to break down technical concepts so anyone can grasp them.
  • Comfort with shifting priorities, quick changes, and rapid response.
  • Ability to manage competing demands and convey changes in priorities and expected delivery schedule to managers and partner teams.
  • An interest in technical and scientific fields including electronics, electrical engineering, chemistry, additive manufacturing, and materials science.
  • A growth mindset, where you are interested in learning about the technology and in expanding your skillset.
