Requirements

  • 10+ years of industry experience with application software (navigation, vision, and multi-agent coordination) in the context of real-time requirements (think drones, legged robots, or autonomous vehicles)
  • 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 software engineers primarily use C++ and Python. Experience with similar languages is ok, and knowledge of Go is a bonus
  • Demonstrated proficiency designing, building, and shipping complex distributed software systems that control hardware, as part of a team
  • Demonstrated proficiency with the fundamentals of robotic systems, such as feedback control systems, motion planning, and computer vision

Responsibilities

  • 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

Atomic Machines

Develops machines for atomically precise manufacturing

About Atomic Machines

Atomic Machines develops machines for atomically precise manufacturing (APM), which allows for the creation of physical objects directly from digital designs. Their technology focuses on microfabrication, particularly in producing Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS), which are small devices that combine mechanical and electronic components. Unlike traditional methods that rely on silicon, Atomic Machines offers a more efficient approach to MEMS fabrication. They cater to various industries, including semiconductor, automotive, healthcare, and consumer electronics, providing advanced fabrication solutions that enhance precision, efficiency, and scalability. The company differentiates itself by focusing on APM, aiming to set new standards in manufacturing technology. Their goal is to transform the manufacturing landscape by merging digital and physical production processes.
