    3-D/BIM Coordination & Interdisciplinary Leadership

    • Lead 3-D/BIM coordination using AVEVA E3D, SmartPlant 3D, Revit, Navisworks, or equivalent for clash-free integration of civil works with mechanical, piping, and electrical
    • Chair design reviews, manage interfaces across disciplines, and align outputs with safety, constructability, maintainability, and cost objectives

    Regulatory Engagement & Team Leadership

    • Prepare licensing packages for seismic qualification, aircraft-impact assessment, and external-hazard analyses
    • Apply IAEA, US NRC regulatory requirements, WENRA, and local standards
    • Lead and mentor junior engineers as Group Leader, interfacing closely with systems engineering, I&C, electrical, and safety analysis teams

Why Join Meitner Energy?

Mission That Matters

You'll help bring clean, scalable nuclear power online — not as a future promise, but as an executable plan starting in 2030. The work you do here directly accelerates the global energy transition.

Real Ownership

Meitner is small enough that your decisions visibly shape the company — and ambitious enough that those decisions matter. We hire people who want to own outcomes, not just tasks.

World-Class Team Across Three Continents

Work alongside engineers, operators, and builders in Argentina, the US, and the UK who bring deep nuclear, industrial, and execution experience.

Execution Over Hype

The ACR300 is built on proven light water technology with targeted innovation — because deploying clean power at scale is an execution problem, not a science experiment. We value rigor, judgment, and follow-through.
