Job Description

About Atomic Semi

Atomic Semi is building a small, fast semiconductor fab.

It's already possible to build this with today's technology and a few simplifications. We'll build the tools ourselves so we can quickly iterate and improve.

We're building a small team of exceptional, hands-on engineers to make this happen. Mechanical, electrical, hardware, computer, and process. We'll own the stack from atoms to architecture. Our team is optimistic about the future and we want to continue pushing the limits of technology.

Smaller is better. Faster is better. Building it ourselves is better.

We believe our team and lab can build anything. We've set up 3D printers, a wide array of microscopes, e-beam writers, general fabrication equipment - and whatever is missing, we'll just invent along the way.

Atomic was founded by Sam Zeloof and Jim Keller. Sam is best known for making chips in his garage, and Jim has been a leader in the semiconductor industry for the past 40 years.

About the role

We're hiring software engineering interns for the fall term. The Internship begins in September, and we're open to either a 4-month term or, preferably, 1 year. You'll be working on an integrated engineering team building semiconductor fabrication equipment, so you'll be exposed to some very interesting engineering problems. Our size allows interns to take on a ton of ownership and mission-critical work.

We give our interns large amounts of autonomy on highly interdisciplinary projects. You'll be bringing up high-performance tools with tight requirements in areas such as structures, optics, liquids, heat transfer, physics, and chemistry. You'll be a good fit if you're familiar with end-to-end system bring-up.

A portfolio is generally required to apply: show us the things you've built! For us, a good portfolio includes evidence of software engineering excellence.

Responsibilities

  • Develop real-time linux applications and microcontroller firmware in Rust for controlling semiconductor fabrication equipment.
  • Develop backend systems for capturing and analyzing semiconductor process data.

Required Experience

  • Pursuing a Bachelor's Degree or higher in Electrical and Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or similar field
  • Proficiency in Python/C/C++
  • Low level systems programming experience and good understanding of embedded systems and OS concepts (Linux/RTOS)
  • Microcontroller programming experience, knowledge of microcontroller peripherals such as ADC, GPIO, PWM, SPI and I2C

Nice-to-haves

  • Familiarity with electronics and feedback control systems
  • Proficiency in Rust

We're an early-stage hardware startup with solid funding, world-class advisors, and a lab/office in San Francisco, CA.

We are an equal opportunity employer and do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, veteran status, disability or other legally protected statuses.

Export Control Analysis: This position involves access to technology that is subject to U.S. export controls. Any job offer made will be contingent upon the applicant's capacity to serve in compliance with U.S. export controls.
