We propose and analyze nonlinear optomechanical protocols that can beimplemented by adding a single atom to an optomechanical cavity. In particular,we show how to engineer the environment in order to dissipatively prepare themechanical oscillator in a superposition of Fock states with fidelity close toone. Furthermore, we discuss how a single atom in a cavity with severalmechanical oscillators can be exploited to realize nonlinear many-body physicsby stroboscopically driving the mechanical oscillators. We show how to preparenon-classical many-body states by either applying coherent protocols orengineering dissipation. The analysis of the protocols is carried out using aperturbation theory for degenerate Liouvillians and numerical tools. Ourresults apply to other systems where a qubit is coupled to a mechanicaloscillator via a bosonic mode, e.g., in cavity quantum electromechanics.
