About the Company General Matter enriches uranium. We are designing, building, and operating the world’s lowest-cost enrichment services, here in the US.   In the process, we are restoring America’s ability to produce nuclear fuel to power AI, advanced manufacturing and critical industries our country relies on to remain competitive.  Fuel drives the cost of advanced reactor electricity production, and enrichment drives the cost of the fuel that advanced reactors consume.  Reliable, low-cost enrichment is the catalyst for the nuclear Renaissance now under way. Our mission is to make nuclear not only the cleanest and safest source of baseload power, but also the most affordable.  We believe abundant nuclear energy will lead to a post-scarcity society.  We were incubated inside Founders Fund, like Anduril and Palantir before us, and are backed by over a dozen of the world's top venture capital firms.   Our lean, world-class team of engineers and operators is applying a first-principles approach to solving the problem of nuclear fuel production.   We are a mission-driven company with a culture of urgency, accountability, and transparency.  Help us build a high-energy society by making the cleanest, safest form of baseload energy the most affordable.  Electrical Engineer - Instrumentation & Controls  As an Electrical I&C Engineer, you will design, document, and implement ground-up electrical power, instrumentation, and control systems for both a new industrial enrichment facility and a range of advanced prototypes and R&D systems. This role spans control panel design, PLC-based automation, instrumentation, and hands-on system integration, with scope and responsibility determined by experience level. You will work across early R&D prototypes through full facility-scale systems, engaging directly with hardware throughout the lifecycle. Open to multiple levels of experience.  Responsibilities Design and test ground-up electrical and controls systems for new facilities, advanced prototypes, and R&D systems. Design, test, and integrate instrumentation and controls systems for industrial automation applications, including: Control panel schematics Wiring diagrams and I/O documentation Panel layouts and harness documentation Use electrical CAD tools to produce and maintain detailed drawings.  Design and support PLC-based controls systems, including instrumentation, field devices, and control architectures.  Design and analyze AC power systems for industrial equipment and control panels, including single-phase and three-phase power distribution.  Support design and integration of facility electrical infrastructure systems such as UPS systems, battery backup systems, generators, and backup power distribution. Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate electrical, mechanical, process, and software systems.  Develop technical documenta...
