Atomic Object is an American, employee-owned custom software development consultancy.[3] Headquartered in Grand Rapids[4] with additional offices in Ann Arbor, Chicago, and Raleigh-Durham, Atomic Object focuses on the early phases of software product design and development.[5][3]

History

Atomic Object was cofounded in 2001[6] by Carl Erickson and Bill Bereza in Grand Rapids, Michigan.[7][8] Bereza left the company in 2009.[9]

In 2014, the company began hosting Atomic Games, a computer programming challenge that requires software developers to create an artificial intelligence (AI) over one weekend[10]

In May 2019, co-founder Carl Erickson transitioned from chief executive officer and appointed Shawn Crowley and Mike Marsiglia as co-chief executive officers.[9]
