Atomic Machines is building the Matter Compiler™, the first in a new class of AI-native, all-digital manufacturing systems that build working machines directly from code. The Matter Compiler (MC) is aimed at micro-machines: motors and gears the size of a grain of sand, robots small enough to work inside the body, cooling built directly into the chips that run AI, and the many devices like them that have been waiting on a way to build them. Its first product is PrimeSwitch™, an electromechanical power relay the size of a button battery that carries 150 amps continuous current and opens in 50 microseconds, about a thousand times faster than a conventional contactor. Founded by Jeff Holden — serial entrepreneur, ex-Amazon SVP and Uber’s first Chief Product Officer — the company has raised $250 million to date.
Atomic Machines is based in the San Francisco Bay Area, with offices in Emeryville and Santa Clara.
FABOS is the Matter Compiler’s control plane. It maintains a trustworthy view of materials and equipment, plans production, and coordinates execution across the fab. It connects planned work to physical results so people and autonomous systems can understand what happened, what remains uncertain, and what can happen next.
You’ll build the dependable execution software that makes this general-purpose platform work as its capabilities and combinations grow. Our team already has deep expertise in data engineering and algorithms. We need a hands-on software engineer with deep architectural experience and systems thinking to turn that expertise into simple, dependable software.
Your primary responsibility is managing complexity: defining clear responsibilities and interfaces, limiting coupling, and making the system easier to understand, test, operate, and change. Fluency in data and optimization, paired with a willingness to work with hardware, supports that responsibility. The architecture is still taking shape, and you’ll help establish the foundations for scaling to more machines, processes, and devices.
The compensation for this position also includes equity and benefits.
