This constellation delivers an unprecedented dataset of empirical information via a revolutionary cloud-based platform to authoritative figures in commercial, environmental, and humanitarian sectors. We are both a space company and data company all rolled into one. Customers and users across the globe use Planet's data to develop new technologies, drive revenue, power research, and solve our world's toughest obstacles. As we control every component of hardware design, manufacturing, data processing, and software engineering, our office is a truly inspiring mix of experts from a variety of domains. We have a people-centric approach toward culture and community and we strive to iterate in a way that puts our team members first and prepares our company for growth. Join Planet and be a part of our mission to change the way people see the world. Planet is a global company with employees working remotely world wide and joining us from offices in San Francisco, Washington DC, Germany, Austria, Slovenia, and The Netherlands. About the Role: As a Manufacturing Technician at Planet, you'll work directly on the flight hardware that goes to space, assembling imaging satellites with complex bills of materials. You will partner with technicians and engineers who care about quality, precision, and mission success. This role is well-suited for someone who is detail-oriented, methodical, and consistent in their approach to work, with a track record of reading and following instructions carefully, taking pride in clean and organized workmanship, and communicating early when more context or clarification is needed. You'll work in a lab and cleanroom environment where production can move quickly, timelines constantly shift based on launch schedules and program priorities, and the quality you bring to each build directly supports Planet's mission to deliver reliable data from space. This is a full-time, in-office position based in our San Francisco office 5 days per week. Impact You'll Own: Perform electro-mechanical assembly and integration of production and prototype satellite systems, following work instructions and drawings. Assemble a wide range of hardware (e.g., fasteners, harnesses, brackets, subassemblies), using calibrated tools and fixtures to achieve consistent, repeatable results. Handle and install sensitive components with care, including cleaning parts, epoxy application, torquing fasteners, and routing cables to defined standards. Support test technicians and engineers by setting up satellites and subassemblies on test fixtures, making required mechanical and electrical connections, and assisting with debug activities. Communicate via Slack, Jira, and other team tools to keep engineers and stakeholders informed of build status, issues, and risks. Help debug failed units by performing careful rework and providing clear feedback about what you observe on the hardware and in the data. Maintain an organized, safe, and FOD-free workspace, including proper housekeeping, tool control, and ESD-safe handling where required, and consistently follow lab and cleanroom gowning protocols (lab coat, hair net, gloves, booties, ESD straps). Contribute to the development and refinement of work instructions and build documentation by flagging unclear steps, mis-matched parts, or frequent sources of error. Cross-train across multiple assembly areas and product lines to support shifting priorities and keep production moving. Work with our in-house software to track each stage of the build, stay organized and up to date, upload photos, and follow step-by-step guides. What You Bring: 4+ years of hands-on technician experience in production, manufacturing, aerospace, or other precision hardware environments, with experience building multiple units rather than only one-off prototypes. Bachelor's degree in a related field. Experience in high-paced production is strongly preferred over purely R&D or prototype-only work. Ability to follow detailed build procedures and work instructions from start to finish, with a strong track record of completing work accurately. Solid hands-on skills with small components and delicate hardware, such as torquing fasteners, cable and harness routing, connector assembly and crimping, adhesive/epoxy work, and lifting and moving sensitive parts. Proficient communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively with technicians, engineers, and leads on the production floor. Solid organizational and problem-solving skills, with a steady, methodical approach to prioritizing work and meeting deadlines in a production environment that can be high-paced and occasionally stop-and-go. A proactive mindset: you surface issues early, ask questions when requirements are unclear, and raise concerns when something in the build does not match the documentation. Familiarity with proper lab and/or cleanroom safety and housekeeping practices, including ESD controls and maintaining clean, organized work areas. Experience working on assemblies with a BOM and understanding part numbers and revisions in a production setting. What Makes You Stand Out: Experience assembling flight hardware, high-reliability electronics, or other mission-critical systems at scale. Background in high-volume or high-throughput production where dozens of units are built and delivered on tight schedules. Experience using issue-tracking tools (e.g., Jira) and writing clear, informative tickets to capture build issues or nonconformances. Ability to read and interpret both mechanical and electrical drawings and translate them into practical assembly steps. Experience with light machine shop equipment (e.g., mill, lathe, band saw, chop saw) to support fixtures or simple mechanical components. Experience acting as a go-to assembler for a particular product or process area, helping train or mentor others on best-known methods.

Job DescriptionAtomic 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 This senior leadership role is one of the most pivotal and technically broad at Atomic Machines. Reporting directly to the VP, Device & Process Engineering, you will be the executive responsible for the development of Atomic Machines' digital manufacturing "Nodes," each of which implements a class of physical manufacturing process, as a fully automated digital machine built upon our robust hardware and software platform that enables sophisticated interaction with all other Nodes, ultimately manifesting in the Matter Compiler (MC). You will lead a team of exceptional principal-level mechanical engineers (both ICs and ICMs) to design and build the Nodes -- from initial prototypes and DoEs through to commercial readiness -- required for the launch of our first product and beyond, and your team will work in the context of our fully operational Hybrid Fab, which provides a unique agile development/deployment environment for all aspects of the MC. Importantly, we are growing rapidly, and you will play a key role in further building out the team with additional bar-raising talent. What You'll Do Cultivate a high-performing leadership team by managing managers and directors while ensuring their teams consistently deliver against strategic objectives and engineering excellence standards.
