Jeffrey Mosher talks with Carl Erickson, Co-Founder and CEO of one of MCSB-Alumni-Most Engaged Workplace Awardee in 2018, Atomic Object of Grand Rapids and Ann Arbor MI
Atomic Object LLC – Grand Rapids and Ann Arbor
Atomic Object helps companies innovate and grow by creating custom software that’s beautiful, reliable, and easy to use. We develop products that cross web, mobile, desktop, and custom devices. With offices in Grand Rapids and Ann Arbor, we serve a national base of clients across many industries. Atomic has always been 100% employee-owned and became a certified B Corps in late 2017.
Atomic Object was founded in 2001 on the belief that not all software is created equal. Many people can write code, but it takes a close-knit team of passionate people to create exceptional, innovative software products that change the way people do business.
Since that time, we’ve enjoyed stable, organic growth and a healthy backlog of projects. Carl Erickson, our co-founder and CEO, wants Atomic to be a 100-year-old software consultancy. If the first 17 years are any indication, we’re off to a pretty good start.
The company works with a wide range of clients — from startups to Fortune 500 companies, across many different industries. Custom software development is a big investment, and Atomic helps its clients mitigate risk, make smart trade-offs, and get the maximum value for their budget.
Atomic was named a 2017 Top Workplace by The Detroit Free Press. We take pride in being a great place to work, where people care about each other and want to learn, grow, and have fun together.
