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:
At Atomic Machines, we're completely rethinking how things are built-and we need a TechnicalWriter with a strong engineering background who can make our revolutionary technology easy to understand. In this role, you'll use your technical expertise to transform detailed engineering concepts, cutting-edge manufacturing processes, and innovative product characteristics into clear, concise documentation. Your audience will include everyone from new hires to engineers and future customers. You'll be part of a small, passionate team shaping the company's vision and products, and your work will be key in bringing a whole new category of devices to life. If you love the challenge of diving deep into technical details and explaining them in a way that sparks curiosity, we'd love to hear from you!
What You'll Do:
Create Work Instructions and SOPs so people can easily follow step-by-step processes. (replace people with operators)

Work with engineering teams to document SOPs.

Keep an eye on user feedback and champion documentation improvements whenever needed. (Replace Keep and Eye on with” Own”)
This role is full-time in-office at our Emeryville site.
What You'll Need:
2-5 years of experience in a technicalwriter, product manager, engineering, or field support engineering role.
Technical or engineering background, or BS/BA with equivalent work experience.
Strong understanding of Technical Writing principles that you can demonstrate through past writing samples.
You bring a “startup mentality” to the table, proactively tackling challenges and seeking solutions collaboratively.

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.

What You'll Need:
* 2-5 years of experience in a technicalwriter, product manager, engineering, or field support engineering role.
* Technical or engineering background, or BS/BA with equivalent work experience.
* Strong understanding of Technical Writing principles that you can demonstrate through past writing samples.
