Radiant Industries is an El Segundo, CA-based startup developing Kaleidos, a portable, containerized nuclear microreactor. Portable nuclear power with rapid deploy capability can replace diesel generators used today to provide critical asset support for hospitals, datacenters, and military bases or to power microgrids at remote sites. Radiant's unique, practical approach to nuclear development utilizes modern software engineering to rapidly achieve safe, factory-constructable microreactors leveraging existing, well-qualified materials. Radiant is on a fast track to demonstrate the first fueled operation of a new commercial nuclear reactor design, just two years from now.
Senior Nuclear Engineer
Radiant is seeking a highly motivated senior nuclear engineer responsible for developing nuclear engineering solutions for our Kaleidos microreactor. This may include areas such as transportation, fuel handling, criticality safety, reactor physics modeling, and others. You will lead engineering initiatives, provide mentorship and guidance to junior engineers, and drive trade studies, strategic direction, and solutions as priorities shift in a fast-paced startup environment.
Responsibilities & Duties
