About the role
As a Mechanical Design Engineer on the Power Conversion System (PCS), you will design the hardware that turns a set of individually developed machines (turbomachinery, motor-generator, recuperator, and primary heat exchanger) into one installed, testable, and operable power plant. Your design scope covers the working-fluid pressure boundary, the structural and layout architecture that carries and aligns the rotating machinery, and the high-temperature hardware that must survive it. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Aerospace, or a related engineering discipline
- 5+ years for Senior Engineer, including hands-on CAD, analysis, fabrication support, and test
- Experience designing pressure-retaining or leak-tight fluid hardware and supporting pressure and leak verification
- Experience releasing production-intent mechanical drawings and models for fabrication, including GD&T and tolerance stack-up
- Experience designing hardware for elevated-temperature or high-stress service, including material selection
- Experience working the mechanical interfaces between multiple components integrated into a single assembly
More about this role
At Antares, our long-term mission is to make clean energy abundant from Earth to the Asteroid Belt. We’re fueled by the belief that advanced nuclear energy can strengthen our military, solve the climate crisis, elevate global living standards, and expand humanity's presence in outer space. To achieve our mission, we’re building mass-producible, inherently safe, deployable microreactors that can be used terrestrially, underwater, and in space.
The Antares team hails from SpaceX, the White House, the Pentagon, the Department of Energy, MIT, Rigetti Computing, General Atomics, Relativity Space, Ursa Major, and National Laboratories like Idaho, Oak Ridge, Los Alamos, and Savannah River. Antares has raised over $600M in venture capital from top-tier investors and has hundreds of million-dollars on contract with the military services, NASA, and the Department of Energy.
