Full 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 https://www.youtube.com/@SamZeloof and Jim Keller https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Keller_(engineer). 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 Team Our production team builds components, tools, and fabs in-house. From machined parts and sheet metal to printed circuit board assemblies and lasers, we make a lot of components ourselves. We assemble, test, and bring-up equipment using those components, supporting our hardware teams from their first prototype through volume production. About the Role The Production Technician assembles semiconductor equipment from work instructions, bills of materials, CAD models, and drawings. The work spans mechanical and electrical assembly, soldering, and testing. Our Technicians work alongside engineers to refine designs and support the bring-up of our tools and fabs. Responsibilities - Perform the mechanical and electrical assembly of semiconductor equipment, including components, sub-assemblies, tools, and fabs. - Build wire harnesses and solder through-hole and SMT components. - Conduct in-process testing of componen
