The Matter Compiler™ is aimed at micro-machines: motors and gears the size of a grain of sand, robots small enough to work inside the body, cooling built directly into the chips that run AI, and the many devices like them that have been waiting on a way to build them. Its first product is PrimeSwitch™, an electromechanical power relay the size of a button battery that carries 150 amps continuous current and opens in 50 microseconds, about a thousand times faster than a conventional contactor. Founded by Jeff Holden - serial entrepreneur, ex-Amazon SVP and Uber’s first Chief Product Officer - the company has raised $250 million to date.\nAtomic Machines is based in the San Francisco Bay Area, with offices in Emeryville and Santa Clara.\nAbout The Role:\nWe are seeking an MLOps Engineer to join our AI and Modeling & Simulation org within the Data Engineering and Analytics team.\nYou will build and operate the infrastructure that takes AI and machine learning models from experimentation to reliable production - covering training, deployment, serving, monitoring, and continuous improvement. This is a DevOps-leaning MLOps role centered on the model feedback loop: connecting production signals and expert feedback back to training so models improve as the system operates.\nWe are looking for senior-level candidates who can take meaningful ownership of production ML infrastructure. The scope and seniority of the role will be shaped by the candidate's experience, technical depth, and demonstrated impact.\nYou will work closely with Data, AI, Process, Design, and Software engineers in a highly cross-functional environment.\nWhat You’ll Do:\nBuild and evolve the MLOps platform and CI/CD: Own the path from experiment to production, including experiment tracking, model registry, packaging, automated training and retraining, deployment, and safe rollout and rollback.\nOperate model serving infrastructure: Build reliable, scalable batch, streaming, and real-time inference for models and digital twins supporting design, process control, scheduling, and inspection.\nBuild ML data and feature pipelines: Turn machine telemetry, process and knowledge graphs, images, time-series, agentic conversations, and other production data into contextualized, model-ready datasets and features.\nMaintain ML data infrastructure: Support feature-store capabilities and a lakehouse foundation using Apache Iceberg on S3, with strong data quality, lineage, versioning, and reproducibility.\nClose the model feedback loop: Build model observability and human-in-the-loop systems that capture production signals and expert corrections, version them as ground truth, and feed them into evaluation and retraining workflows.\nCreate paved roads for ML development: Develop standardized tooling and workflows that enable Data and AI engineers to move quickly while maintaining production reliability and reproducibility.\nDrive technical ownership: Identify infrastructure, reliability, and scalability challenges and drive solutions from design through production. More senior candidates will have opportunities to shape architecture, technical direction, and engineering practices across the ML platform.\n Collaborate across disciplines: Work with Process, Chemical, Materials, Simulation, Software, Data, and AI engineers to define deployment, serving, and data-collection requirements.\nWhat You’ll Need:\n5+ years of relevant industry experience building production software, infrastructure, data, or machine learning systems. We value demonstrated technical depth, ownership, and impact over a specific number of years.\nProven experience building and operating machine learning systems in production, with a strong MLOps/DevOps orientation.\nStrong DevOps fundamentals, including CI/CD, containers, Kubernetes, cloud infrastructure, and infrastructure-as-code.\nProficiency in Python and SQL.\nHands-on experience with MLflow or similar tooling for experiment tracking, model registry, and model lifecycle management.\nExperience with S3, lakehouse technologies such as Apache Iceberg, and workflow orchestration tools such as Airflow or Dagster.\nExperience building pipelines for multimodal ML data, including images, time-series, structured, and semi-structured data.\nFamiliarity with manufacturing systems, sensors, process automation, or other physical-world data systems.\nStrong problem-solving skills, attention to data quality and reliability, and clear technical communication.\nBachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Data Engineering, Data Science, or a related STEM field, or equivalent practical experience.\nThis role is open across multiple levels, from early in career though Staff (L4 through L6). We'll determine the appropriate level and compensation based on your experience, skills, and the scope of the role through the interview process.\nBonus Points For:\nExperience with feature stores, human-in-the-loop systems, active learning, or data-labeling infrastructure.\nRobotics or robotic automation experience, including sensors, vision systems, or robotics data.\nExperience operating ML systems in manufacturing or other physical-world environments.\nExperience building internal tools for expert feedback, labeling, model evaluation, or model interaction.\nExperience designing shared ML infrastructure or platforms used across multiple teams or applications.\nThe compensation for this position also includes equity and benefits.\nSalary Range\n$200,000—$250,000 USD\n Atomic Machines is an equal opportunity employer that values diversity and does not discriminate based on characteristics protected by applicable law. We are committed to an inclusive interview experience, including for individuals with disabilities. To request an accommodation, contact .
