About Atomic Machines:
Atomic Machines is ushering in a new era in micromanufacturing with its Matter Compiler (MC) technology. The MC 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. The MC promises to unlock MEMS manufacturing both for the many device classes that never could be made by semiconductor methods but also to open up entirely new classes. Furthermore, the MC is fully digital in the way 3D printing is digital, but where 3D printing produces parts of a single material using a single process, the MC is a multi-process, multi-material technology: 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 – that we will be unveiling to the world soon.
Our offices are in Berkeley and Santa Clara, California. This position is full-time and is located in our Berkeley location, reporting to the Director of Process Engineering.
About this Role:
We are seeking an innovative engineer to design novel strategies for developing and integrating materials in market-defining commercial devices. In this role you will leverage your hands-on experience of processing and characterizing materials for high-performance microsystems, while applying your first-principles understanding of materials science and structure-property relationships. You will champion materials and processing design for manufacturing (DFM), incorporating a blend of conventional and novel processing techniques to engineer functional multi-material systems, e.g., thin films, alloys, and composites. The ideal candidate is capable of carrying a materials processing technology through its entire life cycle from concept, to experimentation and prototyping, and then finally translating to our digital, autonomous manufacturing platform at scale.
