P002 → Engineer Intern


Atomics is a seed-round biotech startup. I was employee #3 and the sole engineer for the duration of my internship. I led prototyping and hardware development for the company. My work was focused on dispensing and later detecting IR sensitive dyes with micron-level position accuracy and picoliter level volumetric accuracy.
