The role

You will help design and integrate instrumentation, control and power distribution systems for advanced nuclear microreactors. You will work with systems, mechanical, software, licensing and test teams, and support DOE and NRC licensing documentation.

What you will do

  • Design electrical systems for reactor instrumentation, control and power distribution
  • Develop schematics, wiring diagrams and interface definitions for sensors, control hardware and electrical subsystems
  • Review schematics, wiring diagrams, harnesses and control panel designs
  • Take part in design reviews of electrical and I&C sections
  • Assist with hazard analysis of electrical or instrumentation failure modes
  • Support bench testing, HIL/HITL and integration campaigns
  • Collaborate with systems, mechanical, software and licensing teams

Required qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering or a related field
  • Experience designing, analyzing or integrating electrical systems
  • Strong grasp of DC and AC circuits, impedance and transient behavior
  • Ability to create, read and review electrical schematics and wiring diagrams
  • Familiarity with electrical design, simulation or PCB layout tools
  • Hands-on experience with oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies and signal generators
  • Ability to reason about failure modes and safe states in electrical or control systems
  • Comfort working in fast-paced, ambiguous hardware development environments
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills

Nice to have

  • Experience in regulated or safety-critical environments (nuclear, aerospace, defense, maritime or industrial)
  • Understanding of fail-safe design, redundancy, voting logic or diversity in control systems
  • Hands-on experience with hardware bring-up, troubleshooting and root-cause analysis
  • Exposure to HIL/HITL testing, automated test frameworks or data acquisition platforms
  • Familiarity with IEEE, IEC or DOE nuclear standards
  • Familiarity with GDE-987 processes or similar hardware qualification paths
  • Experience contributing to formal design reviews, hazard analyses or configuration-controlled documentation
  • Demonstrated ability to take ownership of hardware problems and drive issues to closure
