Atomic Semi Tech Stack

In-house semiconductor fab equipment design and control software

Semiconductor Manufacturing San Francisco 51–200 employees Founded 2023 Privately Held

Atomic Semi is building a semiconductor fabrication facility from the ground up, including the equipment toolchain itself. The tech stack reveals a hands-on, systems-level engineering operation: CAD tools (Altium, KiCad, Solidworks, Onshape), firmware and control languages (Rust, C++, RTOS, Go), real-time infrastructure (PostgreSQL, Consul, Vault, Grafana), and WebAssembly for browser-based interfaces. Hiring is heavily skewed toward mid-level engineers (25 of 46 engineering roles), with a cluster of interns (18 total), suggesting a scaled, project-driven onboarding model typical of hardware startups tackling process complexity at speed.

About Atomic Semi

Atomic Semi designs and manufactures semiconductor fabrication equipment and process control systems. Founded in 2023 and based in San Francisco, the company operates a small, hands-on engineering team focused on building both the fab hardware and its supporting software stack in-house rather than outsourcing. The product surface spans lithography systems, plasma etching, motion control, metrology, and real-time operator interfaces—all running on custom Linux and Rust applications. Current challenges center on rapid prototyping of precision systems, scaling equipment into production, meeting sub-micron performance targets, and establishing IT security and infrastructure foundations to support multi-location expansion.
