Multiphysics Specialist

PIONEER MULTIPHYSICS MODELING FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF MOLTEN SALT REACTORS 

At Seaborg Technologies we are developing a nuclear power plant concept fundamentally different from what exists today. By bringing to market an advanced molten salt reactor we are making nuclear an inexpensive, sustainable, and scalable technology that can make fossil fuels a thing of the past and revolutionise energy markets. The opportunity to make an impact on climate change and provide millions of people with cheap and accessible energy is what inspires all of us every day.   

Creating an innovation that can impact the world isn’t easy and requires a diverse team bringing together a range of talents and perspectives. We know that we cannot do this alone, so we work closely with regulators, shipyards, academic institutions, and the nuclear industry from all over the world to develop technologies and materials so we can produce an advanced floating nuclear power plant.   

This is your chance to become part of a collaborative research environment where you can chart an uncommonly diverse career and help change the world. Seaborg’s work environment allows for great influence, the possibility to take on responsibility, and personal growth but also demands flexibility.
