Job Title: Quality Manager - Injection Molding Location: Shelby Township, MI Company: Atomic Industries Reports To: Director of Manufacturing About Atomic Industries Atomic Industries is reinventing how the world makes things. From cars and aerospace systems to medical devices and packaging, most physical goods begin life in a mold or are shaped by a manufacturing tool. Producing these tools has always been slow, manual, and dependent on scarce expertise, taking weeks or months. We're changing that. At our Detroit headquarters, we combine the industrial DNA of America's manufacturing heartland with the speed, intelligence, and precision of Silicon Valley. Our AI-driven platform tackles the hardest problems in geometry, process planning, and fabrication, collapsing production timelines from months to days and soon, minutes. We don't just build software; we run a fully operational factory where our technology produces production-grade tooling every week, enabling tight feedback loops and rapid iteration. Backed by top-tier investors, we're restoring speed, flexibility, and capability to the American industrial base. Our mission is to make manufacturing as agile and scalable as the digital world, and in doing so, rebuild the infrastructure of the physical economy. Position Overview We're looking for a hands-on, detail-obsessed Quality Manager to lead all aspects of product and process quality across our injection molding operations. This role is critical in ensuring we meet or exceed customer expectations in precision, consistency, and compliance-especially as we scale to ISO 9001 and eventually IATF 16949 certification.
