Lead Turbomachinery and Fluid Systems Engineer

Radiant is an El-Segundo, CA-based clean energy startup building a nuclear microreactor. A climate-friendly alternative to diesel generators, Radiant's Kaleidos 1MW microreactor will be the world's first portable, zero-emissions power source that works anywhere. We plan to test our development reactor by 2026 and if successful, it will be the first new commercial reactor design to achieve a fueled test in over 50 years. Radiant's goal is to bring one of the world's first factory-constructed microreactors to market. Our microreactor can bring power to remote parts of the world and provide backup power for life-saving applications in hospitals or disaster-relief scenarios.

Radiant is seeking a highly motivated Lead Fluid Systems Engineer to own the development of the Kaleidos power generation cooling loop. You will develop critical hardware at the heart of the supercritical CO2 heat engine while considering for long-term production requirements related to hardware performance, reliability, mass, cost, and manufacturability. The ideal candidate is experienced in building early concept hardware through production, and is excited about our vision to build Earth’s mass-produced nuclear reactors and provide portable clean power to remote areas globally.
