Electronics Engineer
Confirmed on the employer's own hiring board on Oct 14, 2026. First seen by Alion on Oct 14, 2026.
The physics is precise. The electronics have to be, too. You’ll design, build and debug the circuits that help our quantum sensors work beyond the lab.
The Role
As an Electronics Engineer, you will take hardware from schematic and PCB layout through prototyping, assembly, testing and integration into our next-generation gravimeter. You will develop both analog and digital electronics, troubleshoot what happens when boards meet the wider system and improve designs for field use.
You will work alongside physicists, mechanical engineers and software engineers, with room to propose better ways to solve real hardware problems.
Technical Context
We cool atoms with lasers to near absolute zero to measure tiny changes in gravity. Yes, really. That experiment depends on electronics that can be designed, tested and integrated into a compact sensor system.
What You Will Do
- Own PCB development projects from hardware specifications through schematic design, layout, prototyping, bring-up and performance testing.
- Design analog and digital circuits in KiCad, select components and prepare boards for manufacturing, assembly and system integration.
- Assemble, validate and troubleshoot PCBs and electronics subsystems for our next-generation gravimeter.
- Work with physics and firmware teams to integrate electronics with the rest of the sensor, debug cross-system issues and refine designs through testing.
- Evaluate and implement new components, designs or technologies when they solve a specific performance or reliability problem.
- Turn prototypes into more compact, robust electronics designed for repeatable builds and eventual field deployment.
What We Are Looking For
- Hands-on experience with schematic capture and PCB layout using KiCad, including analog and digital circuit design.
- Experience prototyping, assembling, testing and debugging PCB designs, including board-level bring-up and performance checks.
- Sound component knowledge and judgment in component selection.
- Experience designing systems using microcontrollers or microprocessors.
- Knowledge of hardware interfaces including SPI, I2C, RS-232, parallel, USB, CAN and SATA.
- Careful troubleshooting and practical problem-solving skills, with a genuine interest in emerging hardware technologies.
Even Better If
- Personal or professional electronics projects you can show us and talk through.
- Circuit design for power electronics or signal-processing applications.
- Firmware, embedded-systems or programming experience.
- FPGA or DDS experience.
What Success Looks Like
You can take an electronics design from a clear requirement to a tested, working board; explain the decisions you made; and work with the wider team to resolve what happens during system integration. The result is electronics that are easier to build, debug and use as the sensor moves toward deployment.
Working at Atomionics
Subsurface intelligence takes more than one discipline. People bring different expertise to the same problem, and what happens in one part of the system shapes the next.
The roles are different, but the goal is shared: make subsurface intelligence useful where it matters.
What We Can Offer You
Exposure to deep-tech research and product development, with the chance to see how prototype decisions shape a working sensing system.
Location + Work Model
