Job Summary
A senior level nuclear engineer with an operational background is needed to develop program policy, procedural, and internal controls documentation in support of implementing microreactor technology (reactors rated below 20 megawatts electric (MWe)). Noting the development and testing of the DoD “Project Pele” demonstration program, the Army is considering follow‑on deployment of microreactor technology. This microreactor technology leverages recent advances in designs to provide a transportable electric power system producing between 1–10 MW of electricity for expeditionary support and 24/7 installation power for mission‑critical loads.
