About this role
Who we are
Atoms is building the machines that power the next era of progress.
Over the last decade, software has transformed the digital world. But the physical world, where food is made, minerals are mined, goods are moved, and industries are run, remains far less intelligent, far less efficient, and far more constrained. We’re changing that.
Atoms builds Physical AI— real-world robots for the industries that move civilization forward, starting with food, mining, and transport. Our systems are designed to understand, predict, and control the real world with precision, turning complex physical operations into something more reliable, more scalable, and more productive.
This work requires more than robotics. It requires deep integration across hardware, software, AI, operations, manufacturing, and real estate. We don’t just build machines in a lab. We deploy them into real environments, operate them, learn from them, and improve them until they work at scale.
We are roboticists, engineers, operators, and builders. We believe the next great technology companies will not only transform information, but the physical systems that shape everyday life.
If you want to work on hard problems with real-world impact, join us.
What you’ll do
- Set the HR technology strategy.
Own the Workday roadmap. Decide which modules to add or retire, which systems to integrate, and when to build in-house versus bring in an implementation partner.
- Build new capability.
Design and deliver the forward-looking Workday modules and capabilities the company needs as it scales globally.
- Raise the bar on what we already run.
Optimize the current system: audit the tenant, close configuration gaps, and drive adoption so Workday is a system people trust and actually use.
- Own the integration layer.
Architect and maintain integrations between Workday and the surrounding stack, including recruiting, payroll providers, benefits, finance, and identity, using Workday Studio, EIB, Core Connectors, and APIs.
