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.

At Atomic Semi we are building a small, fast semiconductor fab. We build the tools ourselves and are building our own machine shop centers to assemble them ourselves. The manufacturing and production team is taking on the rare opportunity to drive production of parts and semiconductor equipment from the early stages within an innovative company that will have a direct impact on making chips faster than any company in the world. We are seeking an experienced production supervisor to join our team and help lead this effort.
