Atomic Semi is building a small, fast semiconductor fab using today's technology and simplifications. We are seeking a Senior Lithography Research Engineer to lead our efforts in achieving precise geometry at lower node sizes. This highly autonomous, exploratory R&D role involves driving the development of novel patterning approaches. Success in the first 6 months means simulating, designing, and fabricating advanced patterning hardware that integrates into existing processes. Responsibilities include owning the end-to-end development, simulation, and fabrication of novel patterning hardware, driving exploratory R&D autonomously across optical design and nanofabrication, simulating optical and nanophotonic behavior, and interfacing closely with the process team.
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 and Jim Keller. 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
The Positioning Team operates on the nanometer scale. We build lithography, metrology, and motion systems that pattern, inspect, and characterize our chips to push our process to lower nodes.
About the Role
We are bringing on a Senior Lithography Research Engineer to lead our efforts in achieving precise geometry at lower node sizes. This is a highly autonomous, exploratory R&D role where you will drive the development of novel patterning approaches. You'll know you've succeeded in your first 6 months when you have successfully simulated, designed, and fabricated advanced patterning hardware that integrates into our existing processes.
