Engineer responsible for developing and refining operational procedures for nuclear microreactor operations integrating software and hardware testing.
О компании
- is an El Segundo, CA-based startup building the world’s first mass-produced, portable nuclear microreactors. The company’s first reactor, Kaleidos, is a 1-megawatt, fail-safe microreactor that can be transported anywhere power is needed and run for up to 5 years without refueling. Portable nuclear power with rapid-deploy capability can replace similar-sized diesel generators and provide critical asset support for hospitals, data centers, remote sites, and military bases. ’s unique, practical approach to nuclear development leverages modern software engineering to rapidly deliver safe, factory-built microreactors that use existing, well-qualified materials. Founded in 2020, is on track to test its first reactor at the Idaho National Laboratory this summer, with initial customer deliveries beginning in 2028.
- is seeking a highly motivated Reactor Operations Engineer to join the team.
Обязанности
