SGInnovate Hiring! Full Time Mechanical Design Engineer in - Ricebowl

This role is with Atomionics, a startup supported by SGInnovate.

Background

Introduction Atomionics is developing quantum sensors using cold atom interferometry, where atoms are cooled to nearly absolute zero using lasers. At such extreme temperatures, these atoms behave like wavelengths, enabling precise measurement of forces acting on them. This technology has vast potential applications, including advancing the zero-carbon energy transition, enhancing the performance of inertial navigation systems, and revolutionizing the global positioning system.

At Atomionics, you will have the opportunity to design, prototype, test, refine and manufacture Quantum Gravity Sensors. You will develop solutions to improve the performance of our sensor, while also making it compact and robust for field deployment on projects around the world.

Atomionics is backed by some outstanding investors across private and public sectors, such as Wavemaker, SGInnovate, Cap Vista, 500 Startups, and other notable angels.
