Teams at Valar Atomics

Leads mechanical design for advanced nuclear power subsystems, developing CAD models, drawings, analyses, prototypes, and production-ready hardware. Oversees structural, thermal, and fluid analyses; partners with manufacturing, electrical, systems engineers, and vendors; supports DFM, testing, quality, and configuration management. Mentors engineers, reviews designs, leads technical decisions, and contributes to mechanical engineering standards and root-cause investigations.

Develop, configure, test, and commission PLC, DCS, SCADA, HMI, batch-control, safety-logic, historian, and enterprise-integration software for nuclear fuel manufacturing facilities. Responsibilities include industrial communications, alarm management, OT cybersecurity, software configuration control, FAT/SAT and commissioning, troubleshooting, documentation, contractor direction, and coordination with hardware and process engineering teams.

Lead mechanical design and development for advanced nuclear power hardware, from concept through production. Create CAD models and drawings, perform FEA and CFD, oversee prototyping and testing, collaborate with manufacturing and vendors, and mentor junior engineers. Ensure designs meet performance, manufacturability, cost, quality, and reliability requirements while contributing to engineering standards and configuration management.
