Responsibilities
- The Nuclear Company is hiring a Staff Software Engineer to lead the build of NOS modules and applications. You will report to the Director of Product Engineering and work in the Product Engineering squad.

You work with platform engineers on the layers underneath and with product engineers building alongside you.
- You will write production code, lead design and code reviews, mentor other engineers, and partner with business line stakeholders to turn operational needs into working software. When something is hard or stuck, you are the engineer who drives it to a decision.
- Lead the technical build. Design and build NOS modules and applications across desktop, mobile, and in-field surfaces, and own the hard architecture decisions.
