Principal OT Engineer
Valar Atomics, Torrance, California +1
The role
Valar Atomics is a young startup that turns ambitious engineering into working hardware. Before our third anniversary, we designed, built, commissioned, and operated a DOE-authorized research reactor outside the national laboratory system. That pace defines how we work: learn quickly, make sound decisions, and build systems that perform. Analysis must lead to decisions and delivery, and we expect people to take ownership and see their work through. If you want hard problems, real responsibility, and the freedom to build with urgency, bring your judgment and drive to Valar.
Take on the department's most difficult technical problems and step into hands-on engineering work across its disciplines when needed. Combine broad working capability with deep expertise in several areas to resolve failures and integration problems that cross system boundaries. Your day-to-day work would include escalations, developing designs, writing standards, and developing verification procedures all with the goal of improving the systems and supporting the team that builds and operates them.
