## About the role

As a Build Reliability Engineer at Aalo Atomics, you will own build-induced risk across the design, fabrication, assembly, inspection, and testing of reactor hardware. You will work hands-on with design engineers, manufacturing engineers, technicians, inspectors, test engineers, and suppliers to ensure that hardware is built correctly, performs as intended, and becomes more reliable with every build.

## What they're looking for

- Own build-reliability risks for assigned hardware from design release through fabrication, assembly, inspection, test, and production ramp-up
- Partner with Design, Manufacturing, Quality, Test, Production, and Supply Chain to develop quality plans that identify key characteristics, process controls, inspection points, and acceptance evidence
- Lead process failure mode and effects analyses (PFMEAs), build-readiness reviews, first-article planning, and production prove-outs for new or changed hardware
- Develop and improve manufacturing, integration, assembly, welding, cleanliness, pressure-testing, and checkout processes, ensure critical processes are executed consistently across work centers and suppliers
- Review designs for manufacturability, inspectability, and testability, identify unnecessary complexity and drive design or requirement changes that improve reliability and production readiness
- Define clear work instructions, inspection strategies, tooling requirements, training needs, inspection processes, and data-collection plans for critical build processes
