Jobs at Aalo Atomics

Create and maintain precise 2D and 3D mechanical CAD drawings using Siemens NX, applying ASME Y14.5 GD&T standards. Collaborate with engineers to convert concepts into manufacturable, testable designs, maintain drawing packages across iterations, support configuration management, and participate in design reviews and quality improvements for advanced nuclear reactor systems.

Leads reliability engineering for nuclear microreactor components, subsystems, and assemblies. Develops reliability requirements, predictions, statistical models, experiments, accelerated-life tests, and verification strategies. Analyzes failure data and uncertainty, supports FMEA/FMECA and fault-tree analysis, evaluates system risks, and creates technical documentation. Collaborates with design, test, manufacturing, quality, safety, and systems teams to improve product robustness and mentors engineers.

Create video content documenting Aalo Atomics’ factory, hardware, engineering milestones, people, and events. Own productions from concept through final edit, including social videos, documentaries, launch films, recruiting content, and event coverage. Collaborate with brand and marketing teams while managing production logistics, equipment, footage libraries, and post-production workflows. The role is onsite in Austin and includes travel for shoots when needed.

Designs, builds, tests, and commissions mechanical components, mechanisms, assemblies, tooling, and reactor-support hardware. Creates CAD models, drawings, bills of materials, calculations, test procedures, and inspection plans. Integrates actuators, sensors, and instrumentation with controls systems; builds test rigs; and collaborates with machinists, welders, technicians, vendors, and senior engineers to deliver manufacturable designs. Occasional travel to test sites, vendors, and reactor installations is required.

Designs, maintains, monitors, and troubleshoots wired and wireless network infrastructure, including switches, routers, firewalls, VPNs, and related systems. Provides help-desk and endpoint management support, administers user accounts and access, maintains documentation, and assists with upgrades and infrastructure projects. Supports secure network environments interfacing with operational technology systems, including segmentation and access controls, while coordinating with internal teams, vendors, and service providers.

Design, build, instrument, and execute physical tests for mechanical, thermal, fluid, pressure, and chemical systems. Own test development from concept through fixture design, procurement, assembly, shakedown, troubleshooting, data capture, and analysis. Create procedures and safety controls, interpret experimental results, and translate findings into design improvements. Collaborate with engineering, manufacturing, procurement, fabrication, EHS, and operations to develop disciplined prototype and validation capabilities for advanced nuclear reactor systems.

Design, build, instrument, and operate physical test rigs for mechanical, thermal, fluid, pressure, and chemical systems. Own testing from experiment definition through procurement, assembly, shakedown, execution, data capture, troubleshooting, and analysis. Develop procedures and safety controls, interpret results, and collaborate with engineering, manufacturing, EHS, and operations to improve reactor designs and build scalable internal testing capabilities.

Perform pipe stress analyses (CAESAR II/AutoPIPE) to support ASME B31 and Section III nuclear piping design. Evaluate supports, thermal expansion, seismic and operating loads; prepare calculation packages, analysis reports, and design documentation; collaborate with structural, thermal, and systems engineers; develop piping design standards and review processes.

Own build-induced reliability risks for nuclear reactor hardware across design release, fabrication, assembly, inspection, testing, and production ramp-up. Develop quality plans, PFMEAs, work instructions, inspection strategies, and process controls; review designs for manufacturability and testability; analyze production data; investigate failures and nonconformances; and implement corrective actions. Partner with engineering, manufacturing, quality, suppliers, and production teams in a hands-on factory environment while maintaining traceable records and supporting regulated nuclear-quality requirements.

The role involves designing automated manufacturing lines, architecting control systems, PLC programming, integrating robotics, and ensuring safety standards in nuclear reactor production.

The Senior Mechanical Design Engineer leads mechanical design for nuclear reactors. Responsibilities include design ownership, engineering analyses, mentoring, and ensuring safety standards.

The role focuses on building AI systems by understanding workflows, collaborating with internal stakeholders, and productizing solutions across different operations, ensuring reliability and adoption.

Manage construction execution for the Aalo-X experimental reactor at INL, including contractor procurement, onsite construction oversight, schedule/budget/risk management, stakeholder engagement with DOE/NRC, and ensuring regulatory and quality compliance through commissioning and turnover.

The AI Platform Engineer will develop and maintain the platform architecture for AI systems, focusing on integration, security, and scalability. Responsibilities include improving deployment patterns and observability, and collaborating with teams to enhance AI solutions.

Hands-on Supply Chain Manager to build and scale end-to-end supply chain for factory-fabricated microreactors. Own supplier relationships, purchasing execution, inventory and demand planning, MRP contributions, and cross-functional alignment with Engineering, Quality, Manufacturing, and Finance to ensure reliable material availability and scalable processes.

Lead and unify Aalo’s brand, digital products, and internal tools. Create marketing assets, manage and evolve the Webflow site, improve UX of internal software, set design standards and systems, operate semi-independently across teams, and grow a high-performing design function.

Build, instrument, and operate test rigs for mechanical, thermal, and fluid systems. Execute component test campaigns (valves, seals, hoists), wire sensors and DAQ, run cycle tests, characterize failures, perform fabrication and assembly, support sodium exposure and cleaning cask testing, maintain test records, refine procedures, and occasionally travel for on-site commissioning.
