Our mission is to make clean, high-temperature nuclear power scalable-unlocking abundant energy for industry, hydrogen, and next-generation manufacturing. We are a team of builders, engineers, and operators who believe nuclear energy should be fast to deploy, factory-made, and built for the real world. Our first pilot plant in Orangeville, Utah will demonstrate how advanced nuclear systems and fuel fabrication can power the future. Joining Valar Atomics means becoming part of a company where autonomy, ownership, and impact exist at every level.\nThe Team \n\nYou will be joining Valar Atomics’ Electrical Engineering team, embedded within the broader Fuel Manufacturing engineering group. The team delivers the electrical infrastructure that powers Valar’s fuel manufacturing facilities, including process area LV distribution, motor control, and emergency power. You will work alongside I&C, mechanical, and nuclear safety engineers in a collaborative environment that demands technical precision and a strong safety culture. You’ll have the opportunity to contribute to some of the most technically interesting power distribution challenges in the advanced nuclear sector.\nThe Role\nValar Atomics is seeking an Electrical Engineer to support the design and delivery of low voltage electrical systems for nuclear fuel manufacturing facilities. The role will contribute to LV system design, power system studies, equipment selection, drawings, specifications and field support while working closely with senior electrical engineers and multidisciplinary teams. This is an opportunity to work on first-of-a-kind industrial facilities and develop hands-on experience with complex electrical systems in the nuclear industry.\nKey Responsibilities \n\nDevelop and maintain electrical load lists and support power system studies, including load flow, short circuit, voltage drop, motor starting and harmonic analysis, using SKM Power Tools, ETAP, EasyPower or equivalent.\nSupport arc flash hazard analysis and labeling in accordance with IEEE 1584 and NFPA 70E.\nSupport grounding and bonding design for LV systems in accordance with NEC Article 250 and IEEE 142.\nAssist with sizing and selection of LV switchboards, MCCs, panelboards, dry-type transformers, cables, bus duct, VFDs, UPS systems, batteries and standby generators.\nDevelop and update single line diagrams for LV distribution systems, from the secondary of the unit substation through MCCs and final distribution equipment.\nPrepare and maintain electrical equipment layouts, cable schedules, tray routing and duct bank designs.\nSupport specifications and data sheets for LV electrical equipment and industrial control panels to UL 508A / IEC 61439.\nSupport electrical area classification drawings and selection of equipment for hazardous locations in accordance with NEC Articles 500/505 or IEC 60079.\nAssist with LV protective device coordination studies, time-current curves and breaker trip unit settings.\nDevelop and review electrical drawings, including MCC control wiring diagrams, DC control schematics, panel arrangements and distribution details.\nSupport technical evaluations of electrical equipment and vendor bids, and review vendor drawings, calculations and technical documentation.\nSupport electrical installation specifications and participate in pre-commissioning and commissioning activities, including insulation resistance testing, continuity checks, trip unit testing and equipment energization.\nCoordinate with I&C engineers on motor, VFD and control interfaces, and with civil and structural engineers on equipment foundations, cable routing and penetrations.\nParticipate in design reviews, HAZOPs, constructability reviews and other multidisciplinary engineering activities, and support resolution of technical questions from vendors, contractors and field teams.\nPrepare engineering calculations, reports, drawings and specifications under the direction of senior electrical engineers, applying applicable codes and standards.\nBasic Qualifications \n\nBachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a closely related discipline.\n1+ years of electrical engineering experience, preferably in industrial, process, power generation or other complex facilities.\nUnderstanding of LV electrical distribution systems and fundamental electrical engineering principles.\nFamiliarity with power system analysis software such as SKM Power Tools, ETAP, EasyPower or equivalent.\nFamiliarity with electrical design deliverables, including single line diagrams, load lists, equipment specifications, cable schedules and electrical layouts.\nWorking knowledge of the NEC, NFPA 70E, IEEE, ANSI and NEMA standards.\nPreferred Skills and Experience\nEIT designation or active pursuit thereof.\nExperience with LV switchboards, MCCs, VFDs, UPS systems or standby power systems.\nExperience performing or supporting short circuit, arc flash or protective device coordination studies.\nFamiliarity with hazardous location classification and static electricity control (NFPA 77).\nExperience with industrial control panel design or review to UL 508A or IEC 61439.\nExperience with DC systems and battery sizing.\nFamiliarity with nuclear quality requirements (e.g., ASME NQA-1) or nuclear fuel facility design.\nWhat We Offer \nCompetitive base salary \nEquity ownership in a rapidly growing advanced energy company \nComprehensive medical benefits \nUnlimited PTO\nFree daily lunch \nGenerous PPE stipend\nHigh-impact startup environment with significant ownership and autonomy \nOpportunities for rapid career growth and internal advancement \nDirect collaboration with experienced operators, engineers, and industry leaders \nThe opportunity to help build and scale transformative energy technology from the ground up\nEqual Employment Opportunity Statement\nValar Atomics is an equal opportunity employer.
