Electrical I&C Engineer (New Grad)

About the role

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. About This Role As an Electrical Instrumentation and Controls (I&C) Engineer at General Matter, you will design, develop, analyze, test, and evaluate electrical systems, instrumentation and controls, and associated equipment of a modern enrichment plant. You will play a vital role in ensuring the reliability, safety, and efficient of our facility electrical systems. You will have the opportunity to take ownership of systems, see work through systems designed through testing and production, and communicate with a highly collaborative, cross-functional team. If you seek high-impact and are excited by fast-paced, intense, Skunkworks-style projects, we encourage you to reach out to join our team.
