The U.S. grid is under growing strain, with power demand accelerating, driving higher utility costs, rising carbon emissions, and interconnection backlogs. Radiant has a solution, transportable, on-site power. Our first reactor, Kaleidos, is 1 megawatt: small enough to be factory-built, transported by land, sea, or air, and deployed wherever power is needed. 1 MW can power 1000 homes for five years. Ship it back and we refuel for a 20 year operating life. We made energy a product that can be used for critical infrastructure like military bases, data centers, hospitals, and remote sites, as well as the commercial main street businesses that keep America running. Founded in 2020, Radiant is under contract to deliver power to the U.S. Army, Navy and Air Force and has signed pre-order agreements with Equinix, with deployments beginning in 2028.\nAbout the Role\nRadiant is seeking a highly motivated Senior Civil Engineer to design and develop critical concrete and precast structural systems supporting Radiant's manufacturing and deployment sites. You will solve unique challenges creating efficient, reliable concrete structures capable of surviving extreme thermal and seismic environments while meeting site and program constraints. You will be responsible for trade studies, material selection, detailed structural analysis, assembly, integration, and testing. You will play a critical role enabling the manufacturing, fueling, and safe storage infrastructure that supports Radiant's microreactors.\nResponsibilities & Duties:\nOwnership of critical concrete structures such as spent fuel dry cask storage systems, factory and facility foundations, and precast concrete elements supporting manufacturing and site operations.\n\nConduct trade studies and develop designs to meet program requirements for static, thermal, and seismic loading conditions.\n\nPerform detailed structural analysis (reinforced and precast concrete design, static strength, durability) and dynamic analysis (seismic qualification) to determine structural integrity (margins of safety) using both hand calculations and finite element tools.\n\nDevelop and execute construction, fabrication, and test plans for precast and cast-in-place concrete elements.\n\nCreate and manage a Bill-of-Materials (BOM).\n\nFind and develop suppliers and fabricators for precast concrete components.\n\nOwn subassembly/structure design, fabrication, and test schedules.\n\nOwn risk analysis (FMEA) for concrete structural subsystems.\n\nCollect requirements, provide expertise and feedback to engineers in other functional areas via clear, constructive communication.\n\nRequired Qualifications & Skills:\nBachelor's degree from an accredited institution in Civil, Structural, or Mechanical Engineering.\n\n5+ years of experience designing concrete or reinforced concrete structures.\n\n4+ years of experience performing structural analysis using both hand calculations and finite element tools (Abaqus, Ansys, SAP2000, or similar).\n\nDesired Qualifications & Skills:\nActive PE license (not required)\n\nExperience with reinforced concrete design codes (ACI 318 or similar).\n\nExperience designing precast concrete systems, including handling, transport, and erection considerations.\n\nExperience with dry cask storage design or spent nuclear fuel storage systems.\n\nExperience with seismic design/qualification of concrete structures.\n\nExperience with nuclear or other critical-facility structural design.\n\nExperience designing hardware/structures that were fabricated, deployed, and iteratively improved.\n\nExperience resolving thermal expansion and thermal gradient issues in concrete designs.\n\nExperience working with interdisciplinary teams (mechanical, civil, geotechnical).\n\nSolid understanding and application of GD&T and construction tolerancing.\n\nProficiency with both \"hand calc\" analytical methods and higher-fidelity finite element-based analysis methods.\n\nAbility to derive free-body diagrams for systems with which one was not previously familiar.\n\nSelf-motivated with strong organizational, written, and oral communication skills.\n\nExperience with using text-based software development tools.\n\nAdditional Requirements:\nMust be willing to work extended hours and weekends as necessary to accomplish our mission.\n\nMust work 100% onsite at El Segundo HQ.\n\nBenefits and Perks\nStock: Substantial incentive stock plan for all full-time employees.\n\nMedical: 100% up to base silver level plan for employee + 50% dependents, offers up to Platinum plans.\n\nOne Medical: Sponsored memberships for employees and their dependents.\n\nVision: 100% top tier plan coverage + 50% for dependents.\n\nDental: 100% top tier plan coverage, orthodontia extra, 50% for dependents.\n\nVoluntary life, accident, hospital, critical illness, commuter and FSA/HSA are offered as employee contributed benefits.\n\n8-weeks of paid parental leave for all parents. Additional paid pregnancy leave for CA employees.\n\nDaily catered lunch. Free snacks and drinks.\n\nFlexible PTO policy. Remote workday allocation.\n\nCompany and team-bonding events, happy hours and in-person camaraderie.\n\nBeautiful El Segundo headquarters close to the Pacific Ocean.\n\nTotal Compensation and Benefits\nRadiant compensates people for impact and invests in those who continue to raise the bar.
