Atomic · NYC, Boston, Austin, or Reno; remote positions also available

Most companies still plan their supply chains (quantities, mix, allocations, timing, etc.) in spreadsheets or legacy software.

Atomic is rebuilding the brain behind the American supply chain. By tackling operations optimization from first principles with an AI-native stack, we're able to deliver unprecedented results at a breakneck speed for our customers.

We're looking for first-principles thinkers who want to write code that drives the physical world, working directly with the customers who run it.

Forward Deployed Engineers own customer deployments end to end. You do the same technical work as our core engineers, but client-facing and embedded across the whole problem. FDEs go broad and deep across:

• Data : build automated, normalized pipelines on top of a customer's messy real-world supply chain data
• Modeling : shape the optimization logic and models to how their business actually runs (data science and machine learning experience is a plus)
• Front End & AI : build the interfaces and AI features for customers to interact with and analyze plans
• Integrations : wire Atomic into the customer's systems and partner platforms

• Relevant backgrounds: planning, supply chain, data engineering, management consulting, finance, industrial engineering
• Experience: 3+ years for FDE, 6+ years for Sr. FDE
• Significant experience coding with AI while applying strict guardrails
• Comfort working directly with customers to turn business problems into software
• Willingness to do applied, hands-on work at startup speed, spanning code, data, supply chain, finance, and operations (supply chain / physical goods experience is a plus)

Atomic is an equal opportunity employer.
