From Valar Atomics's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
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.
As part of the Business organization, IT & Enterprise Software delivers the technology infrastructure, enterprise applications, and digital tools that power Valar's operations. The team ensures secure, reliable, and scalable technology solutions that support every function across the company.
We're looking for a Software Security Engineer to embed security into our software development lifecycle — from initial design through shipped code. This role is split across two key moments: early-stage design and planning reviews, where you'll help engineering teams make secure architectural decisions before code is written, and post-development code review, where you'll dig into implemented code to find and fix vulnerabilities before release.
You'll work closely with engineering teams across our C#, Python, and React stack, along with our Postgres data layer, acting as a security partner rather than a late-stage gatekeeper. We strongly value candidates with backgrounds in large-scale technology organizations or the defense sector, where security rigor and compliance discipline are non-negotiable.
Unlimited PTO
We are committed to providing a workplace free of discrimination and harassment and will provide reasonable accommodation as required by law.
Applicants must be legally authorized to work in the United States as a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident (green card holder).
Compensation
$175,000 — $200,000 USD
Valar Atomics is an equal opportunity employer. We consider all qualified applicants without regard to race, color, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other protected status under applicable law.
