About Atomic Industries

Atomic Industries is reinventing how the world makes things. From cars and aerospace systems to medical devices and packaging, most physical goods begin life in a mold or are shaped by a manufacturing tool. Producing these tools has always been slow, manual, and dependent on scarce expertise, taking weeks or months. We’re changing that.

At our Detroit headquarters, we combine the industrial DNA of America’s manufacturing heartland with the speed, intelligence, and precision of Silicon Valley. Our AI-driven platform tackles the hardest problems in geometry, process planning, and fabrication, collapsing production timelines from months to days and soon, minutes. We don’t just build software; we run a fully operational factory where our technology produces production-grade tooling every week, enabling tight feedback loops and rapid iteration.

Backed by top-tier investors, we’re restoring speed, flexibility, and capability to the American industrial base. Our mission is to make manufacturing as agile and scalable as the digital world, and in doing so, rebuild the infrastructure of the physical economy.


About the Role

As a Senior Software Engineer on the Platform Engineering team, you'll help transform cutting-edge research into scalable, production-grade software used by engineers, machinists, and customers alike.

You’ll work across services and systems — from CAD and mesh pipelines to simulation infrastructure and web APIs — to build the core backend and data services that power Atomic’s platform. This role is ideal for generalists who are excited to work across disciplines and take ownership of complex, high-impact systems.


What You’ll Do

  • Design and implement scalable backend systems and APIs in Python and other languages

  • Build and maintain services for geometry processing, simulation orchestration, and real-time data handling

  • Design schemas and pipelines for structured and unstructured data using PostgreSQL, S3, Redis, and RabbitMQ

  • Own and improve CI/CD pipelines and deployment infrastructure (GitHub Actions, Hashicorp stack)

  • Collaborate with product and design to define intuitive interfaces for tooling engineers and internal users

  • Profile and optimize performance-critical workloads, including GPU-accelerated simulation tasks


What We’re Looking For

Minimum Qualifications

  • 7+ years of experience building and deploying production software at scale

  • Proficiency in at least one systems language (Go, Rust, or C++) and one scripting language (Python preferred)

  • Experience designing and scaling distributed systems, data pipelines, or high-performance compute services

  • Hands-on experience with distributed computing, cloud infrastructure, and CI/CD pipelines

  • Comfortable working in hybrid environments (cloud and on-prem), including bare-metal GPU systems

  • Excellent communication skills and the ability to explain complex ideas clearly in writing and in conversation

Bonus Points For

  • Experience with 3D geometry kernels (Parasolid, OpenCascade) or CAD/CAM workflows

  • Familiarity with simulation, manufacturing, robotics, or hardware-in-the-loop systems

  • Understanding of ITAR, CMMC, or similar regulatory constraints

  • Experience building developer-facing tools, SDKs, or internal platforms


How We Work

  • Fast iteration: We deploy code daily and validate it in the factory every week

  • Factory-first mindset: Engineers spend time on the shop floor to understand the real-world impact of their work

  • Low ceremony, high ownership: We value well-written design docs, tested code, and real results — not meetings

  • Collaborative culture: Geometry, AI, and robotics teams are tightly integrated and co-develop the product together


Benefits

  • Competitive salary and generous equity package

  • Full medical, dental, and vision coverage for employees and dependents

  • 401(k)

  • PTO with a 15-day minimum

  • Quarterly team travel to Detroit

  • Visa support for TN, E‑3, and O‑1 candidates

  • Hardware stipend and on-site prototype lab access

Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.
