Vice President of Finance Technology

Atoms is building the machines that power the next era of progress.

Over the last decade, software has transformed the digital world. But the physical world, where food is made, minerals are mined, goods are moved, and industries are run, remains far less intelligent, far less efficient, and far more constrained. We’re changing that.

Atoms builds Physical AI— real-world robots for the industries that move civilization forward, starting with food, mining, and transport. Our systems are designed to understand, predict, and control the real world with precision, turning complex physical operations into something more reliable, more scalable, and more productive.

This work requires more than robotics. It requires deep integration across hardware, software, AI, operations, manufacturing, and real estate. We don’t just build machines in a lab. We deploy them into real environments, operate them, learn from them, and improve them until they work at scale.

We are roboticists, engineers, operators, and builders. We believe the next great technology companies will not only transform information, but the physical systems that shape everyday life.

If you want to work on hard problems with real-world impact, join us.

What you’ll do

• Own the finance technology ecosystem across Atoms, with Workday as the core ERP and connected systems supporting billing, payments, treasury, payroll, and operational data.
• Design scalable finance architecture that moves financial data cleanly from source systems into accounting entries, reporting, controls, and business decision‑making.
• Automate manual finance and accounting workflows across transaction processing, reconciliations, journal entries, reporting support, and close‑related activities.
• Partner with Accounting, Strategic Finance, Operations, Engineering, and the CFO to identify system gaps, improve integrations, and build a roadmap for long‑term scale.
• Build the Finance Technology function over time, including team structure, vendor strategy, operating cadence, documentation, controls, and system roadmap.

What we’re looking for

• Deep understanding of how operational transactions become accounting entries, financial statements, and management reporting.
• Experience leading finance systems architecture across ERP, billing, payments, treasury, payroll, procurement, FP&A, and data platforms.
• Strong ERP experience, ideally with Workday Financials or similar platforms such as Oracle, Net Suite, or SAP.
• Proven track record driving automation, integration, controls, reconciliations, subledger design, and transaction‑to‑GL process improvements.
• Comfortable operating in ambiguous, fast‑moving environments with a builder mentality, high ownership, strong stakeholder influence, and the ability to drive change without heavy PMO infrastructure.

At Atoms, you’ll work on one of the defining challenges of our time - bringing automation into the physical world to drive real, lasting impact. We exist to uncover valuable unknown truths and turn them into progress, which means constantly pushing beyond what’s known and building what doesn’t yet exist. The work is ambitious and often challenging, but it’s grounded in a shared sense of purpose and a team committed to seeing it through together.

Our work only matters if it serves others, and we know that meaningful progress depends on the trust of the people we serve and the strength of our team—so we invest in both, creating an environment where you can do your best work and grow.

What else you need to know

This role is based in our San Francisco, Los Angeles or New York location. As a company driven by innovation and continuous change, close collaboration is essential. We’re constantly reimagining our industry, creating new products, and refining our processes, and we do our best work together. That’s why all of our office‑based teams work onsite, five days a week.

The base salary range for this role is $300,000 - $350,000
per year.

Actual compensation will be determined on an individual basis and may vary depending on experience, skills, and qualifications.
