Supply Chain Buyer/Planner bei Atomic Semi

About Atomic Semi

Atomic Semi is building a small, fast semiconductor fab.

It’s already possible to build this with today’s technology and a few simplifications. We’ll build the tools ourselves so we can quickly iterate and improve.

We’re building a small team of exceptional, hands-on engineers to make this happen. Mechanical, electrical, hardware, computer, and process. We’ll own the stack from atoms to architecture. Our team is optimistic about the future and we want to continue pushing the limits of technology.

Smaller is better. Faster is better. Building it ourselves is better.

We believe our team and lab can build anything. We’ve set up 3D printers, a wide array of microscopes, e-beam writers, general fabrication equipment - and whatever is missing, we’ll just invent along the way.

Atomic was founded by Sam Zeloof and Jim Keller. Sam is best known for making chips in his garage, and Jim has been a leader in the semiconductor industry for the past 40 years.

About the role

We’re hiring a Supply Chain Buyer/Planner to expand the Manufacturing team’s purchasing capacity. This role will complement Manufacturing and report directly to the Production Manager, who oversees master production scheduling.

Required Experience

• Hands-on experience in purchasing, planning, or operations within electronics/semiconductor, contract manufacturing, or hardware.

• MRP/ERP proficiency and comfort with BOMs, item masters, vendor score cards, etc.

• Strong Microsoft Excel skills and data hygiene habits.

• AP fundamentals: three-way match, coding to budget categories, resolving discrepancies with vendors.

• Vendor management basics: request quotes, compare total landed cost, place POs, chase acknowledgments, and drive OTIF.

• Clear written communication; fast, reliable follow-through; bias for closing loops.

• On-site execution: comfortable working with Receiving to verify deliveries, label, and stage inventory when needed.

Nice-to-have

• ERP/MRP experience; building MRP rules, reorder points, supplier catalogs, and receiving workflows.

• Light scripting/power query for operations (e.g., CSV transforms, simple queries, API imports).

• Exceptional written communication with vendors; executive-ready communications internally.
