What are the responsibilities and job description for the Principal Mechanical Design Engineer, Matter Compiler position at Atomic?
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.
All potential candidates should read through the following details of this job with care before making an application.
Our offices are in Berkeley and Santa Clara, California.
About the role :
We are seeking a seasoned Principal Mechanical Design Engineer to join our growing team in either our Berkeley or Santa Clara office. This individual will lead and contribute to significant systems and strategic technologies from the beginning of the product life cycle for our novel Real-Time Micro-Manufacturing platform, the Matter Compiler. The Mechanical Engineering team is at the forefront of designing and developing state-of-the-art hardware solutions through the entire lifecycle of product development - from conceptualization, harnessing process physics - to deployment, ensuring our innovative designs meet practical, real-world needs. Our engineers, guided by seasoned leadership, are deeply involved in all aspects of product development across a multitude of technical domains, through cross-functional collaboration, continuous refinement of our engineering processes, and upholding high standards in mechanical design to usher forward the next major step change in manufacturing.
