What You'll Do:
- Write, operate, and debug software and firmware for complex robotics with hard real-time constraints. The code you write is what drives all manufacturing operations at Atomic Machines – and must be reliable, fault tolerant, and well instrumented.
- Work at multiple levels of the software stack. You’ll design and implement a networked API and debug it down to the hardware.
What You'll Need:
- 3 + years of industry experience with embedded systems programming, particularly for ARM architectures and real-time operating systems (RTOS)
- Bachelor of Science in Computer Science or a related field.
- Multi programming language fluency. Ability to code fluently in multiple languages, at multiple levels of the stack. Our embedded engineers primarily use C++ and Python. Experience with similar languages is ok, and knowledge of Go is a bonus.
- A deep understanding of how computers work. Our work involves a variety of processors and computing environments – Linux, FreeRTOS, and bare metal.
- Undergraduate-level knowledge of Operating systems, Networks, Concurrency &execution models, and Computer architecture.
- Experience designing, building, and shipping complex distributed software systems that control hardware, as part of a team.
Bonus Points For:
- Experience writing APIs and infrastructure that support operation of manufacturing nodes, material transport systems, and the system-level controller. Our monolithic central controller (Go, Postgres, gRPC) communicates with a distributed network of physical machines.
- Experience with instrumenting software for observability and debugging.
- Experience with version control, Infrastructure-as-Code, and DevOps workflows.
- Familiarity with the fundamentals of robotic systems, such as feedback control systems, motion planning, and computer vision.
- Familiarity with CAD and CAM software, focusing on geometry engines, toolpath generation, and machining strategies.

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.
