Electronics Engineer

This role is posted on behalf of Atomionics, a startup supported by SGInnovate.

Introduction

Do you want to be part of the team that revolutionizes the resource exploration and navigation industry? Atomionics is working on quantum sensors based on cold atom interferometry where atoms are cooled down to almost absolute zero using lasers. At such cold temperatures, these atoms start behaving like waves, which allows us to precisely measure the forces acting on them. This opens up a wide range of applications including, but not limited to, paving a path in the energy transition to zero-carbon, exponentially improving the performance of inertial navigation systems, and transforming the global positioning system.

At Atomionics, you will get the chance to prototype, test, refine, finalize, and produce your designs toward making our devices compact and robust for field deployment. We are looking for an electronics engineer who:

1. Wants the freedom to innovate by being involved in deep tech research
2. Is excited by the prospect of working within an interdisciplinary team comprised of mechanical engineers, physicists, and software engineers
3. Would like to own their work via compelling equity offerings

We are a small, focused group in a high-energy environment. Our team consists of people at the top of their domains with a diverse set of experience, such as in advanced rocket engines, the first digital cameras, and high-resolution microscopes, apart from cold atom physics. In addition, we are backed by some fantastic investors from the private and public sectors, such as Wavemaker, SGInnovate, Cap Vista, 500 Startups, and other prominent angels.
