About the role

Radiant is seeking a flexible, innovative Quality Systems Engineer to balance the implementation of quality assurance requirements within a high throughput manufacturing environment.

  • 2+ years of full-time experience with engineering problem solving in hardware design, testing, systems engineering, build reliability or quality assurance
  • The ability to challenge assumptions, always asking why and getting to the root of the matter, conversely, able to accept challenges and engage with different viewpoints

  • Experience in a Mission Assurance, Quality Assurance, Build Reliability, or Systems Engineering role
More about this role

Radiant is an El Segundo, CA-based startup building the world’s first mass-produced, portable nuclear microreactors. The company’s first reactor, Kaleidos, is a 1-megawatt, fail-safe microreactor that can be transported anywhere power is needed and run for up to 5 years without refueling. Portable nuclear power with rapid-deploy capability can replace similar-sized diesel generators and provide critical asset support for hospitals, data centers, remote sites, and military bases. Radiant’s unique, practical approach to nuclear development leverages modern software engineering to rapidly deliver safe, factory-built microreactors that use existing, well-qualified materials. Founded in 2020, Radiant is on track to test its first reactor at the Idaho National Laboratory this summer, with initial customer deliveries beginning in 2028.
