Emeryville, California, United States Atomic Machines Full time

Atomic Machines is ushering in a new era of micromanufacturing with its Matter Compiler technology. This full-stack technology enables new classes of micromachines to be designed and built by offering manufacturing processes and a materials library that is inaccessible to semiconductor manufacturing methods. It promises to unlock MEMS manufacturing for the many device classes frustrated by semiconductor methods and to open up entirely new product classes. The Matter Compiler technology fully realizes the digital manufacturing dream: bits and raw materials go in, and complete, functional micromachines come out. The Atomic Machines team has also created an exciting first device – one that was only made possible by the existence of the Matter CompilerTM technology – that we will be unveiling to the world soon.

About This Role:

As a Machine Shop Tech, you will be partnering with our prototype machinists to create unique and innovative parts that will go directly into the Matter Compiler This role is critical to ensuring our machine shop is running smoothly. You will be ensuring efficient workflow and high-quality production by preparing and cutting stock materials to specified dimensions, operating machinery to produce precision components, deburring parts to meet specifications, and inspecting parts to verify accuracy and compliance with design tolerances. You should have attention to detail, commitment to quality, and the ability to collaborate effectively within a team.

What You'll Do:

  • You will be loading stock material, tooling, and operating a CNC mill or CNC lathe.
  • In charge of cutting parts using laser and waterjet cutters.
  • Preparing and cutting stock materials.
  • Parts of your day will see you deburr, wash, and package machined parts.
  • Use inspection tools to verify correct dimensions and tolerances.
  • Maintain a schedule to check and top off coolant and fluids in machines.
  • Organize work areas, put tools away, and clean equipment and surfaces.
  • Perform basic equipment maintenance.

What You'll Need:

  • A first-principles mindset — You question assumptions, break problems down to fundamentals, and prefer root-cause solutions over pattern-matching.
  • 1–5 years of experience in a machine shop environment.
  • Comfort using basic shop equipment (bandsaws, belt sanders, drill presses, etc.).
  • Experience with manual milling and lathes.
  • Good communication, math skills, logical thinking, and vision.
  • Ability to lift heavy items (up to 50 lbs) as needed.
  • High school diploma or GED required.

Bonus Points For:

  • Experience operating CNC mills and CNC lathes (any model).
  • Hit the ground running by machining parts on a CNC mill or lathe (Extra bonus).
  • Familiarity with Fusion and Fusion CAM (or any other CAM package).
  • Basic metrology skills and working knowledge of GD&T.

Hourly Rate Range: $35 USD - $45 USD
