Senior Quality Engineer - Compute

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.

About the role

We are seeking a Senior Quality Engineer to build quality for our compute box build, from incoming material through the unit that ships. In this role, you will set the inspection standards, control plans, and disposition process for the line, hold the release gate on every unit, and drive defects to root cause with engineering and suppliers.

What you’ll do

• Write the control plan and PFMEA for compute box assembly, and revise them as the process and the design change

• Set incoming inspection for compute box material: PCBAs, machined and sheet-metal parts, harnesses and cables, with sampling plans and acceptance criteria matched to risk

• Set in-process and outgoing inspection: what is checked, where, by whom, to what standard, and what evidence is recorded

• Hold the release gate: no compute box ships without passing it, and it holds under schedule pressure
