What the job involves

Radiant is seeking a driven Senior Software Engineer to work on simulation and analysis. In this role, you will collaborate with the Digital Twin team to improve simulation performance, build data analysis tools, and automate test suites for software verification
You will have an opportunity to work in an interdisciplinary environment with a high degree of ownership and drive milestones forward to unlock commercialization of the first mass-produced nuclear reactor
Design and implement features in our simulation stack to provide an exceptional developer experience for internal users
Own simulation automation and runtime performance to enable efficient and compliant safety analysis
Collaborate across teams to streamline Digital Twin implementation workflow
Define, develop, and maintain various mission-critical internal tools

Our take

To support the clean energy revolution, Radiant Nuclear is developing a portable, containerized nuclear microreactor. Once launched, it will have the potential to provide power to remote parts of the world or act as a backup supply to vital infrastructure such as hospitals and data centers.

Typically, these backup systems are powered by diesel generators - making them extremely bad for the environment. Radiant's microreactors could allow the replacement of these generators whilst supplying the same critical asset support, enabling a substantial reduction in carbon footprint.

Having completed the design phase of the project, Radiant has taken a step closer towards realizing its microreactor (known as Kaleidos). The company intends to test a prototype as early as mid-2026 and has secured considerable funding to support its work towards that goal.
