Software orchestrated mass production of plastics. Backed by Y Combinator.
About the role
We are seeking a manufacturing engineer to help build and launch a high-volume, highly automated injection molding plant. You will work closely with the Plant Manager to design and bring up molding cells, specify and commission equipment, and engineer production lines to run at high yield and uptime from day one.
What they're looking for
- 5+ years in manufacturing engineering for injection molding operations, with experience launching automated production cells
- Demonstrated ownership of equipment specification, vendor interaction, process integration, and startup in a production setting
- Strong working knowledge of mold tooling, press systems, cycle time optimization, and automation integration
- Experience with high-volume or high-mix operations in plastics manufacturing
- Familiarity with robotic systems, vision inspection, thermal management, and downstream automation
- Proficient in root cause analysis, process validation, and lean manufacturing principles
More about this role
Atomic Industries is reinventing how the world makes things. From cars and aerospace systems to medical devices and packaging, most physical goods begin life in a mold or are shaped by a manufacturing tool. Producing these tools has always been slow, manual, and dependent on scarce expertise, taking weeks or months. We’re changing that.
At our Detroit headquarters, we combine the industrial DNA of America’s manufacturing heartland with the speed, intelligence, and precision of Silicon Valley. Our AI-driven platform tackles the hardest problems in geometry, process planning, and fabrication, collapsing production timelines from months to days and soon, minutes. We don’t just build software; we run a fully operational factory where our technology produces production-grade tooling every week, enabling tight feedback loops and rapid iteration.
Backed by top-tier investors, we’re restoring speed, flexibility, and capability to the American industrial base. Our mission is to make manufacturing as agile and scalable as the digital world, and in doing so, rebuild the infrastructure of the physical economy.
