Atomic Machines•Emeryville, CA

About The Position

Atomic Machines is ushering in a new era of micromanufacturing with its Matter Compiler™ technology platform. This platform enables new classes of micromachines to be designed and built by providing manufacturing processes and a materials library that are inaccessible to semiconductor manufacturing methods. It unlocks MEMS manufacturing not only for device classes that could never be produced by semiconductor methods, but also for entirely new categories. Furthermore, this digital platform is fully programmable in the way 3D printing is digital—but whereas 3D printing produces parts of a single material using a single process, the Matter Compiler™ technology platform is a multi-process, multi-material system: bits and raw materials go in, and complete, functional micromachines come out. The Atomic Machines team has also created an exciting first device—made possible only through the Matter Compiler™ technology platform—that we will be unveiling to the world soon. Our offices are in Emeryville and Santa Clara, California. About the role: Atomic Machines is looking for a full-time Executive Assistant to support our leadership team from our Emeryville office, five days a week. You'll be the operational backbone behind our executives - managing calendars, travel, meetings, expenses, and projects, freeing them to focus on their highest-impact work. We're looking for someone proactive, trustworthy, and hyper-organized who thrives in a fast-moving startup environment. If that's you, we'd love to hear from you.
