Reliable, low-cost enrichment is the catalyst for the nuclear Renaissance now under way.\nOur mission is to make nuclear not only the cleanest and safest source of baseload power, but also the most affordable. We believe abundant nuclear energy will lead to a post-scarcity society. \nWe were incubated inside Founders Fund, like Anduril and Palantir before us, and are backed by over a dozen of the world's top venture capital firms. \nOur lean, world-class team of engineers and operators is applying a first-principles approach to solving the problem of nuclear fuel production. \nWe are a mission-driven company with a culture of urgency, accountability, and transparency. \nHelp us build a high-energy society by making the cleanest, safest form of baseload energy the most affordable. \nAbout This Role\nWe’re looking for a Systems Administrator to support our growing team in a fast-paced, engineering-driven environment.
