Senior Director, Mining Autonomous Platform (AV Platform Engineering)

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 hiring a Senior Director, Mining Autonomy Platform Engineering to lead the team that owns the platform beneath our autonomous mining products.

What you’ll do

• Retrofit and integration architecture. Own the architecture of the autonomy installation across supported trucks, including electrical architecture, harness design, mounting, sensor and compute placement, and power. Define what is common across trucks and what is configured per model, and maintain a documented integration path for a new truck type.

• Bring-up and commissioning engineering. Own the build instructions, drawings, procedures, and commissioning gates that installations run against. Act as the engineering escalation point for field teams and convert escalations into documented design and process changes.
