Backed by Founders Fund.
About the role
As a Reliability Engineer at General Matter, you'll own the reliability of the hardware we build. You'll design and lead the test campaigns that tell us how our systems hold up over their life — how they fail, when, and why — and bring the analytical rigor to make those answers trustworthy.
What they're looking for
- Strong understanding of engineering fundamentals
- Ability to perform trade studies and make clear recommendations using first principles and engineering fundamentals even with partial information
- Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Aerospace, Reliability, Industrial Engineering, or a related field
- Experience designing and executing reliability test campaigns (e.g., accelerated life testing, HALT/HASS, durability, or component reliability testing)
- Strong applied statistics for reliability — life-data (Weibull) analysis, reliability demonstration and sample-size determination, design of experiments (DOE), confidence intervals, and acceleration modeling
- Proficiency with reliability and statistical tools (e.g., ReliaSoft Weibull++/ALTA, Minitab, JMP, Python, or R)
More about this role
General Matter enriches uranium.
We are designing, building, and operating the world’s lowest-cost enrichment services, here in the US.
In the process, we are restoring America’s ability to produce nuclear fuel to power AI, advanced manufacturing and critical industries our country relies on to remain competitive.
Fuel drives the cost of advanced reactor electricity production, and enrichment drives the cost of the fuel that advanced reactors consume. Reliable, low-cost enrichment is the catalyst for the nuclear Renaissance now under way.
Our mission is to make nuclear not only the cleanest and safest source of baseload power, but also the most affordable. We believe abundant nuclear energy will lead to a post-scarcity society.
We were incubated inside Founders Fund, like Anduril and Palantir before us, and are backed by over a dozen of the world's top venture capital firms.
Our lean, world-class team of engineers and operators is applying a first-principles approach to solving the problem of nuclear fuel production.
We are a mission-driven company with a culture of urgency, accountability, and transparency.
Help us build a high-energy society by making the cleanest, safest form...
