Engineers are the reason we exist—they’re the core of who we are. We don’t just build technology; we engineer the future. From next-gen aerospace to cutting-edge defense systems, our teams power the solutions that drive innovation, tackle mission-critical challenges, and keep people safe. This is where problem-solvers and big thinkers thrive. Due to the nature of this role all candidates must be US Citizen or Person. Preference is onsite with the ability to be hybrid. Will consider remote candidates meeting all requirements. FPGA/HW Engineer to join a team developing a new control system platform for nuclear power plants. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of energy innovation and sustainability. You'll design and improve FPGAs and PCBs/CCAs for Instrumentation and Control (I&C) Electronic Systems used in in both existing nuclear facilities as well as new Small Modular Reactor (SMR) offerings. Additionally, you'll design and implement test fixtures, test tools, and simulations utilized in the development of these systems. This role lets you use advanced technology to solve real-world problems, aiding the shift to cleaner energy. You'll collaborate with experts, gain valuable experience, and help shape the future of energy. This career offers growth, fulfillment, and the chance to make a real difference as you get in on the ground floor of a new product offering.
