Who we are
Atoms is building the machines that power the next era of progress.
Over the last decade, software has transformed the digital world. But the physical world, where food is made, minerals are mined, goods are moved, and industries are run, remains far less intelligent, far less efficient, and far more constrained. We’re changing that.
Atoms builds Physical AI— real-world robots for the industries that move civilization forward, starting with food, mining, and transport. Our systems are designed to understand, predict, and control the real world with precision, turning complex physical operations into something more reliable, more scalable, and more productive.
This work requires more than robotics. It requires deep integration across hardware, software, AI, operations, manufacturing, and real estate. We don’t just build machines in a lab. We deploy them into real environments, operate them, learn from them, and improve them until they work at scale.
We are roboticists, engineers, operators, and builders. We believe the next great technology companies will not only transform information, but the physical systems that shape everyday life.
If you want to work on hard problems with real-world impact, join us.
About the role
We are seeking a Senior Systems Integration and Test Engineer to own how new vehicle platforms enter our fleet. In this role, you will take a new platform variant, sensor, or compute generation from first article to fleet release, owning the integration sequence, the validation criteria, and the documented correlation between bench results and vehicle behavior. You will turn what you learn on the first builds into the procedures, checks, and test coverage that make the next set of vehicles routine. The role spans multiple vehicle platforms with different hardware, compute, and software, and requires regular time in the garage and around vehicles.
What you’ll do
- Platform introduction. Own first integration and bring-up for new platform variants, sensor generation, compute generation, and power or network architecture change.
- First article to repeatable. Turn a one-off build into a commissioning procedure covering firmware, calibration, sign-offs, and autonomy software integration, written so a technician can execute.
- Validation criteria. Define and run the vehicle-level checks a new platform passes before it runs a release.
- Bench to vehicle correlation. Own the documented relationship between bench results and vehicle behavior for each platform.
- Calibration, timing, and data integrity. Own multimodal calibration, time synchronization, and the integrity of the sensor to compute path on new platforms.
