Atomic Semi is hiring a
Electromechanical Engineering Intern in United States

Summary

Atomic Semi is an early-stage semiconductor startup in San Francisco, CA, led by Sam Zeloof and Jim Keller. They are hiring electromechanical engineering interns for the fall term to design, prototype, and build semiconductor fabrication equipment. Interns will work on a small team and have ownership over their projects, which span various domains such as structures, optics, liquids, heat transfer, physics, and chemistry.

Requirements

• Pursuing a Bachelor’s Degree or higher in engineering
• Ability to learn quickly and troubleshoot technical problems
• Hands-on prototyping experience and the ability to move through design cycles quickly
• Hands-on experience with electromechanical assembly design and analysis from coursework, internships, or personal projects
• Strong foundation in electrical engineering (KiCad/Altium, microcontrollers, embedded systems, digital circuits, etc.)
• Strong foundation in mechanical engineering (Solidworks/Onshape, simulation, materials selection, etc.)

Responsibilities

• Designing, prototyping, and building semiconductor fabrication equipment across system design (simulations, analysis), electrical design (board design and electronics), and mechanical design (CAD, etc.)
• Working with other engineering teams to determine requirements
• Manufacturing and building your designs (sourcing parts, fabrication, producing drawings, etc.)
• Characterization of your system to close the loop (designing test setups for your designs and collecting data)

Preferred Qualifications

• Familiarity with semiconductor processing— thin film deposition & etching, photolithography, etc
• Experience with Python scripting and data visualization
