  • Proficiency with nuclear systems codes such as RELAP, SASSYS, GOTHIC, SAM, PRONGHORN, or MELCORE.
  • Strong knowledge of nuclear systems fundamentals, including thermal hydraulics, neutronics, and reactor transient behavior.
  • Demonstrated ability to work within a multidisciplinary engineering team.
  • Preference will be given to candidates with experience working on fast-spectrum or molten salt reactor designs, familiarity with nuclear design and regulatory frameworks, and knowledge of risk-informed, performance-based guidance for Non-Light Water Reactors.
