Staff Electrical Engineer 

About Valar Atomics At Valar Atomics, we're redefining what's possible in energy. 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. The Team   You will be joining Valar Atomics' Electrical Engineering team within the Instrumentation, Control & Electrical (IC&E) organization. The team delivers the electrical infrastructure that powers Valar's facilities from utility interconnection through MV distribution, process area LV systems, and emergency power across the reactor program and fuel manufacturing operations. You will work alongside I&C, mechanical, process, and nuclear safety engineers in a hands-on environment where power system integrity directly supports production reliability and nuclear safety, with the opportunity to work on some of the most technically interesting power distribution challenges in the advanced nuclear sector. As a staff engineer, you will be one of the technical anchors of this team: the engineer others come to when the problem is novel, ambiguous, or high-consequence. The team values technical depth, disciplined documentation, and a safety-first culture The Role Valar Atomics is seeking Staff Electrical Engineers to serve as discipline technical authorities for medium voltage (MV) and low voltage (LV) electrical systems across our reactor and nuclear fuel manufacturing facilities. The role spans the full electrical discipline scope: power system studies, equipment specification, protection design, installation, and commissioning, from capital project execution through ongoing plant operations. This is a staff position: in addition to owning the most complex electrical scope end-to-end, you will set the calculation methods, design standards, and study practices the discipline runs on, lead resolution of first-of-a-kind plant electrical problems where no catalog answer exists, review and approve the work of other engineers, and provide technical direction and mentorship across the electrical team. You are accountable not only for your own designs, but for the technical quality and consistency of electrical engineering across projects and sites.  Key Responsibilities   Technical Leadership and Discipline Ownership   Serve as the responsible engineer and discipline technical authority for electrical systems on assigned scope; review and approve power system studies, protection settings, sizing calculations, specifications, and design deliverables produced by other engineers, contractors, and vendors.  …
