About the role
As a Senior Motor-Generator Engineer, you will own the design and development of high-speed motor-generator units (MGUs) for Antares nuclear reactors. You will serve as the primary technical interface with our electric-machine suppliers while developing the internal capability to design, analyze, manufacture, and test stators and permanent-magnet rotors. You will work closely with electrical, turbomachinery, mechanical design, manufacturing, and test engineers to integrate the MGU into our power conversion systems.

- Experience with electromagnetic analysis tools such as ANSYS Maxwell, Motor-CAD, JMAG, or equivalent
- Working knowledge of electric-machine materials and manufacturing processes, including electrical steel laminations, windings, insulation systems, and permanent magnets
- Experience developing electric-machine hardware through manufacturing, assembly, and testing
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.
