Nuclear Engineer I/II

As a member of the nuclear engineering team, you will become the responsible engineer for a key component of the Antares reactor design such as reactivity controls and instrumentation, radiation shielding, fuels, materials, thermal hydraulics, safety, or licensing. The ideal candidate has a mix of industry and academic experience, and has worked in a team-oriented environment to mature nuclear concepts. While you may have a specialty, you’re not afraid to operate as a generalist in a growing organization.

Roles and Responsibilities:

• Assist with neutronics modeling and simulations using MCNP, Serpent, or SCALE
• Support Multiphysics analyses (thermal-hydraulics, heat transfer, structural mechanics)
• Participate in experimental validation of simulation results
• Collaborate with senior engineers on iterative design tasks
• Contribute to documentation and regulatory reporting
• Participate in hardware demonstrations and prototype testing

Basic Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Nuclear Engineering or related technical field
• Familiarity with neutron transport software (MCNP, Serpent, SCALE)

Preferred Skills & Experience:

• Familiarity with Python or similar programming language
• Coursework or internships involving Multiphysics modeling
• Interest or experience in microreactors, heat pipe cooled reactors, or other advanced reactors
• Exposure to fast-paced project environments
• Proven ability to quickly learn new technical concepts
• Strong communication skills
