About the role
We are hiring a Staff Engineering Technician to own how our development vehicles get built. You will set the build and workmanship standard, design the fixtures and kitted assemblies that make engineering builds repeatable, and own configuration control across the fleet. You will serve as the final escalation on cross-disciplinary vehicle failures, and as the frontline technical voice into hardware design.
What they're looking for
- 8+ years of hands-on experience in vehicle integration, prototype build, or electromechanical systems
- Demonstrated ownership of a build process
- Deep wire harness and vehicle electrical expertise, including harness architecture, terminal and connector selection, and grounding schemes
- Experience owning configuration control across a fleet or a family of prototypes
- Ability to lead challenging debug work independently, and to know when a problem requires escalation
- Track record of raising the standard of other technicians through training, review, and written procedure
More about this role
Atoms is building the machines that power the next era of progress.
Over the last decade, software has transformed the digital world. But the physical world, where food is made, minerals are mined, goods are moved, and industries are run, remains far less intelligent, far less efficient, and far more constrained. We’re changing that.
Atoms builds Physical AI— real-world robots for the industries that move civilization forward, starting with food, mining, and transport. Our systems are designed to understand, predict, and control the real world with precision, turning complex physical operations into something more reliable, more scalable, and more productive.
This work requires more than robotics. It requires deep integration across hardware, software, AI, operations, manufacturing, and real estate. We don’t just build machines in a lab. We deploy them into real environments, operate them, learn from them, and improve them until they work at scale.
We are roboticists, engineers, operators, and builders. We believe the next great technology companies will not only transform information, but the physical systems that shape everyday life.
