Benefits: Competitive medical, dental, vision and life insurance, 401(k) plan with a company match, unlimited PTO policy, PTO, paid parental leave
We are seeking a Test Engineer for a leading developer of next-generation microreactor systems. The Test Engineer will lead the planning, execution and continuous improvement of complex testing programs for safety-critical systems. This role is responsible for designing and overseeing test strategies, ensuring testing is executed safely, consistently and in compliance with quality standards, while partnering closely with cross-functional engineering teams to deliver reliable, high-quality results.
The ideal candidate combines strong technical expertise with proven leadership experience, bringing the ability to design experiments based on principles of engineering and physics, interpret data, solve complex technical challenges, and drive projects from concept through execution. This individual thrives in highly regulated environments, understands quality assurance principles, and is comfortable working directly with hardware, instrumentation and integrated test equipment.
Candidates with experience in nuclear, aerospace, defense, space, chemical processing, industrial systems, or other heavy industrial environments are strongly encouraged to apply. Experience in pharmaceutical environments will be considered when it includes large-scale, safety critical equipment testing rather than laboratory or formulation work.
The test facility is currently being built out and being equipped over the coming months. The individual will partner with engineering to ensure the facility is properly equipped.
Collect data that supports engineering decisions through rigorous testing and clear communication of results.
Maintain test equipment, fixtures, parts, and materials.
Execute testing safely, repeatably, and in compliance with quality standards.
Must be a hands‑on engineer, comfortable using complex equipment and working directly with hardware and test setups.
Must have acted as a lead investigator or technical lead on test programs or projects
Instrumentation, measurements, and basic data acquisition concepts (integration, validation, asking the right questions)
Quality Assurance is a major focus, candidate must understand QA principles and operate comfortably in regulated environments
BS in Engineering or in a related field
Bachelor’s degree in Nuclear Engineering or related field.
· Test experience in the nuclear industry.
· Use of automated data collection and analysis techniques.
