From General Matter's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
General Matter is enriching uranium in America.
Our goal is to design, build, and operate the world’s lowest-cost enrichment services in the United States.
Our mission is to restore America’s ability to produce nuclear fuel—fuel that will power AI, advanced manufacturing, critical industries, and the next generation of nuclear reactors.
Ultimately, our work will help power national ambitions and enable a high-energy society.
We were incubated by Founders Fund, like Anduril and Palantir before us, and are backed by top-tier investors. Our lean, world-class team of engineers and operators is applying a first-principles approach to solving the problem of nuclear fuel production.
We are a mission-driven company with a culture of urgency, accountability, and transparency.
Help us build a high-energy society by making the cleanest, safest form of baseload energy the most affordable.
As Lead Nuclear Criticality Safety Engineer at General Matter, you'll build and lead the criticality safety program for a Part 70 fuel cycle facility from the ground up. Your criticality safety evaluations (CSEs) are a foundational input into our Integrated Safety Analysis (ISA), meaning the double-contingency approach, methodology, and technical judgment you establish now will shape how this facility operates for decades.
This is a rare opportunity to set the criticality safety strategy for a next-generation enrichment facility rather than inherit one — and to do it at a company where your technical decisions have a direct line to whether we get licensed and operating on schedule.
We're especially looking for engineers who've done this before at an NRC-licensed Part 70 facility, or who bring deep DOE criticality safety experience and are ready to translate that rigor into the NRC licensing framework. If you've spent your career fitting criticality safety work into someone else's program and are ready to build the program instead, we encourage you to apply and lead this work at General Matter.
