About the job

About Atomic Semi

Atomic Semi is pioneering the development of a compact and agile semiconductor fabrication facility.

With today’s technology, alongside a few innovative simplifications, we are capable of realizing this vision. We will create our own tools, allowing for rapid iterations and enhancements.

Our goal is to assemble a small, exceptional team of hands-on engineers to drive this initiative forward. Our team is composed of experts in mechanical, electrical, hardware, computer, and process engineering. We will manage the entire stack, from atoms to architecture, with a forward-thinking approach that pushes the boundaries of technology.

Our philosophy emphasizes that smaller, faster, and self-built systems are superior.

We are confident that our team and lab can create anything we envision. Equipped with 3D printers, diverse microscopes, e-beam writers, and general fabrication tools, we are committed to inventing whatever tools we may need along the way.

Founded by Sam Zeloof and Jim Keller, Atomic Semi combines Sam's garage chip-making prowess with Jim's extensive 40-year leadership in the semiconductor industry.

About the Role

We are in search of an Infrastructure & Site Reliability Engineer to design, construct, deploy, and oversee the on-premises backend infrastructure that drives our rapid semiconductor fabrication process.

This multifaceted role encompasses all elements of backend infrastructure and services.

Our infrastructure philosophy prioritizes minimalism, clarity, on-site operations, and proximity to hardware. Expect a focus on bare-metal Linux, systemd, and single-file binaries rather than extensive use of Docker, cloud services, or Kubernetes. Proficiency in Rust, Go, and Python will be beneficial.

We welcome candidates from various experience levels—ranging from outstanding early-career engineers to seasoned professionals. We are not fixed on a specific background; what is paramount is your proven ability to build real systems, enthusiasm for hands-on engineering, and a strong display of engineering excellence. If you are passionate about performance engineering, developing complex features from the ground up, and swiftly mastering new domains, this is an exciting opportunity for you.

A portfolio or GitHub account is generally required to apply: demonstrate the projects you’ve undertaken!
