Company seeking 2025 graduating engineers from U.S. universities in multiple disciplines
WASHINGTON D.C. — March 17, 2025 — The Nuclear Company, which is deploying fleet-scale nuclear power across America and leading the modernization of nuclear construction, today announced it is seeking to hire its first cohort of engineering students from the 2025 graduating classes across America’s universities.
“This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity for engineers to help build a more resilient energy infrastructure for the United States,” said The Nuclear Company Chief Nuclear Officer Joe Klecha, a Navy veteran who helped lead construction of America’s only two nuclear reactors built in the last 30 years. “We know the time is now for more nuclear power. The most important contributor to a strong American economy is abundant, reliable energy.”
The Nuclear Company emerged from stealth mode in 2024 with the mission to address America’s surging energy demand. Despite the need for nuclear’s firm baseload power, the biggest challenge facing the industry, which creates high-paying head-of-household jobs, is that nuclear projects are almost always over budget and behind schedule. The Nuclear Company’s model seeks to avoid these pitfalls by redefining nuclear construction and adopting fleet-scale deployment, which employs a design-once, build-many methodology to lower costs and minimize delays.
The company’s unique approach focuses on streamlining processes, utilizing advanced construction and manufacturing methods, and leveraging cutting-edge digital technologies. These technologies integrate advanced analytics, AI, and IoT to streamline the deployment of nuclear reactors. By utilizing this approach with proven, licensed technology, The Nuclear Company aims to achieve significant cost reductions and shortened project timelines, meeting its commitment to on-time, on-budget deployment of its first fleet of nuclear reactors in the United States.
For the Engineer 1 cohort, The Nuclear Company is seeking graduating seniors or recent graduates with degrees in mechanical, electrical, civil, computer or nuclear engineering. To apply, visit TheNuclearCompany.com/engineer1.
