🌍 Why this internship matters
Atomionics is building a planetary-scale model of Earth using quantum sensors and AI - technology that will redefine how humanity explores resources, navigates the world, and tackles challenges like energy transition and carbon capture. As a Business Development Intern, you will gain front-row exposure to how deep-tech moves from lab to market. This internship is designed to immerse you in the commercialization process: researching opportunities, supporting client conversations, and learning how breakthrough science is translated into real-world impact.
🚀 What you will do
Your internship is about learning by contributing. You will:
- Research industries: Explore critical resources, alternative energy (like geothermal and hydrogen), and navigation to identify where our technology can create value.
- Support client work: Assist in preparing presentations, pitches, and proposals that connect innovation to stakeholder needs.
- Learn pilot design: Work with technical teams to understand how demonstration projects are shaped, and contribute to their development.
- Assist in proposals: Help refine grant applications and development tracks under guidance from senior team members.
- Shadow strategy: Observe and contribute to discussions with leadership on market validation and go-to-market approaches.
- Grow rapidly: Operate in an environment where every project accelerates your learning curve.
đź§ About you
This internship is for people who are exceptionally curious and motivated to learn. You do not need polished experience, what matters is your mindset.
- You ask why before you ask how, and enjoy breaking problems down to fundamentals.
- You are eager to learn by doing, even when the subject matter is unfamiliar.
- You thrive in new environments and see ambiguity as a chance to grow.
- You bring strong people skills - listening, empathy, and the ability to connect across cultures and disciplines.
- You value ideas and clarity over credentials; you are here to build substance, not just a résumé.
- You have a basic grasp of science (high-school level is enough) and the curiosity to pick up what you do not know along the way.
🌟 What we offer
- Exposure: Direct insight into conversations with governments, corporations, and global industry leaders.
- Mentorship: Learn from physicists, engineers, and strategists working at the cutting edge of quantum sensing and AI.
- Growth: Accelerated learning in early-stage commercialization, with opportunities to contribute meaningfully.
- Impact: Be part of projects that will influence what humanity looks like in the decades ahead.
- Culture: A collaborative environment with board games, curry nights, and a book allowance to fuel curiosity.
✨ Why join Atomionics?
- Because here, you will not just be “doing an internship”. You will be immersed in the process of pioneering how quantum sensors and AI reach the world. You will learn faster than you imagined, gain exposure to conversations that stretch your thinking, and contribute to shaping the commercialization of technology that will define the next century.
About the Company
Atomionics Pte. Ltd.
Atomionics is a Singapore-based startup building quantum sensors for subsurface exploration and universal navigation. Our sensors generate 3D models of the Earth’s subsurface to pinpoint critical resources, enable GPS-free positioning, and detect earthquakes and volcanic activity.
We specialize in cold atom interferometry—cooling atoms to near absolute zero with lasers to measure tiny gravitational changes. We’re a hands-on, high-energy team operating at the intersection of quantum physics, hardware, and AI. Engineers here work across mechanical, electronic, and software systems—treating every challenge as a workout for the mind.
Backed by Wavemaker, SGInnovate, Cap Vista, 500 Startups, Paspalis, and prominent angel investors, we’re turning deep tech into real-world impact.
