What You’ll Do:
- Determine critical system attributes and set up computational models for existing and future devices, with a strong emphasis on electromagnetic and thermal models.
- Define figures of merit and boundary/operating conditions based on your understanding of the system and its requirements, as well as input from other engineers.
- Set up and deploy dynamic multiphysics simulations (electromagnetic, thermal, mechanics) via Finite Elements and/or Finite Volumes models for transient and static analyses to aid design and process decisions.
- Deliver executable computational models to support the company’s efforts in process sensitivity analysis, optimal design, and other engineering analyses as needed to improve robustness of designs and processes.
- Systematically document methods and their validation. Document and visualize results and present findings and recommendations to the team.
- Recommend model validation experiments and use results of such experiments to validate and improve models.
- Work collaboratively in cross-functional engineering teams with prototype engineers, device designers and AI engineers.
- Train other engineers in modeling and simulation tools.
What You’ll Need:
- 6+ years (after Masters) of hands-on experience building multiphysics models and simulations.
- Strong foundation in modeling and simulation of multiphysics, with required knowledge of dynamic electromagnetic, electrostatic, and thermal effects.
- Knowledge of structural mechanics, piezoelectric, piezoresistive, and fluid dynamics is welcome.
- Programming experience, particularly in Python scripting, and experience in automation of simulations to support automated and autonomous optimization and design.
- Industrial experience in modeling and simulating electromagnetic and thermal effects.
- FEA experience using COMSOL and/or Ansys in multiple coupled physics (experience with Abaqus, Siemens products, etc. is appreciated as well). Being resourceful, flexible and adaptable; no task is too big or too small.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills and the ability to work independently and/or cross-functionally.
- Masters or Ph.D. in Engineering, Physics, or a related field.
Bonus points for:
- Experience in computer aided design (CAD) using Fusion 360, SolidWorks, NX or other CAD tools.
- Experience with data visualization and analysis tools such as JMP, Matlab, Pandas, matplotlib, etc.
- Industry experience in product development processes such as Agile, ICSM, etc.
- Experience with MEMS.
What We Do
Atomic Machines is redefining humanity’s relationship with matter. We see a future where our tools will allow us to reorganize matter at the atomic level at will, where we will go from bits to atoms for any object or machine that can be designed in alignment with physical laws. We have begun our journey with the development of a robotic manufacturing platform capable of making an entirely new class of micro-electromechanical (MEMS) devices. We are well funded and have exceptionally strong product/market fit and a clear go-to-market path for the device we will make first with our platform. Our platform breaks traditional manufacturing paradigms and constraints, enabling inexpensive rapid prototyping as well as large scale manufacturing with highly compelling economics.
Joining forces with us means becoming part of an incredibly talented, inventive and passionate multi-disciplinary team working on a massive world-changing mission. You will have the opportunity to help define the company from its early 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.
