Company Overview Blue Energy's mission is to unlock energy abundance, energy affordability, energy security, and turn-key decarbonization by developing the fastest path to deploying new nuclear MWs at scale. We are utilizing shipyard manufacturing supply chains and techniques from offshore oil and wind to reduce the cost of nuclear plants by over 60% and the manufacturing timeline to 24 months. Blue Energy is a platform technology that makes use of the latest NRC-approved reactors and is in negotiations with existing nuclear and industrial sites, enabling a much faster regulatory pathway to deploy our first unit. With our innovative centralized shipyard manufacturing approach, we can put nuclear power on a cost-reduction learning curve akin to wind, solar, and lithium-ion batteries. The Chief Engineer will spearhead engineering endeavors encompassing the full scope of the plant's design and installation (the nuclear island as well as the balance of plant), guiding them from conceptual design stages to prototyping and eventually detailed design for manufacturing. Collaborating closely with our Head of Regulatory and Licensing Strategy and our commercial team, you'll champion the development of the safest, most cost-effective, most scalable, and most stakeholder-friendly advanced nuclear platform, enabling a global renaissance in nuclear power. Success in this role demands unwavering dedication to expanding expertise in shipyard manufacturing, offshore logistics, naval engineering, nuclear engineering, structural engineering, and thermal power plant engineering. From crafting comprehensive requirements for the nuclear island and balance of plant to personally devising analytical models for mission-critical designs, this position offers a breadth of responsibilities across the engineering spectrum. A Day in the Life As Blue Energy's Chief Engineer, your responsibilities and activities will include: Technical Leadership: Able to apply first principles to solve engineering challenges, you will first and foremost be the technical lead at Blue Energy. You will help develop, own, and execute our technical roadmap from conceptual design through the first shovel of dirt. Hands on Engineering: From building ANSYS models, to working with consultants to help develop our seismic loading, to power plant layout, to visiting key manufacturers, to in-water testing, you will stay close to the day to day engineering efforts and be pivotal in tackling our toughest engineering challenges. Project Management: Building the next generation of nuclear power plants will require exceptional project management skills, managing stakeholders, contractors, requirements for our supply chain partners, requirements from our licensing team, and making sure we can deliver plants on time, within budget, to spec. Team Building and Mentorship: As an early team member, you will help establish and uphold Blue Energy's Engineering culture - a culture of curiosity, pragmatism, and overachieving to foster an era of abundance for humanity. You will thrive in this role if you have: Built something real: You have worked from an idea on a page, through FEED, test, all the way to implementation. Whether it is commissioning a new plant, first flight, or the successful deployment of a new technology, you know what is required to bring an idea to fruition. Expertise in highly regulated engineering: You know the regs and standards of your industry inside and out, and maybe have sat on committees to improve them. It's okay if you don't know what NUREG-0800 or ASME NOG-1 are yet, but you should be eager to learn them and spend a lot of time with them. You have worked closely with systems engineers, or have served as one yourself, to help build and adhere to the requirements for your project. Engineering Breadth: Knowledgeable in areas from power plant design, naval engineering, nuclear engineering, geology, analysis (thermal, static, dynamic, CFD, thermodynamics), or proven ability to learn new disciplines quickly. Leadership Skills: Proven ability to provide technical leadership and guidance to multidisciplinary engineering teams, with a track record of successfully leading complex engineering projects from concept to implementation. Entrepreneurial Spirit: A passion for creation, ingenuity, hard work, and running through walls to accomplish your goals. Strong Communication Skills: Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to effectively convey technical concepts to diverse audiences, including clients, regulators, and internal stakeholders. Curiosity: When someone mentions something you have not heard before, you already have a tab open ready to explore. When someone disagrees with you, your immediate response is not defensiveness, but curiosity about what the best solution might be and what might be missing.

Company Overview Blue Energy's mission is to unlock energy abundance, energy affordability, energy security, and turn-key decarbonization by developing the fastest path to deploying new nuclear MWs at scale. We are utilizing shipyard manufacturing supply chains and techniques from offshore oil and wind to reduce the cost of nuclear plants by over 60% and the manufacturing timeline to 24 months. Blue Energy is a platform technology that makes use of the latest NRC-approved reactors and is in negotiations with existing nuclear and industrial sites, enabling a much faster regulatory pathway to deploy our first unit. With our innovative centralized shipyard manufacturing approach, we can put nuclear power on a cost-reduction learning curve akin to wind, solar, and lithium-ion batteries. The Chief Engineer will spearhead engineering endeavors encompassing the full scope of the plant's design and installation (the nuclear island as well as the balance of plant), guiding them from conceptual design stages to prototyping and eventually detailed design for manufacturing. Collaborating closely with our Head of Regulatory and Licensing Strategy and our commercial team, you'll champion the development of the safest, most cost-effective, most scalable, and most stakeholder-friendly advanced nuclear platform, enabling a global renaissance in nuclear power. Success in this role demands unwavering dedication to expanding expertise in shipyard manufacturing, offshore logistics, naval engineering, nuclear engineering, structural engineering, and thermal power plant engineering. From crafting comprehensive requirements for the nuclear island and balance of plant to personally devising analytical models for mission-critical designs, this position offers a breadth of responsibilities across the engineering spectrum. A Day in the Life As Blue Energy's Chief Engineer, your responsibilities and activities will include: Technical Leadership: Able to apply first principles to solve engineering challenges, you will first and foremost be the technical lead at Blue Energy. You will help develop, own, and execute our technical roadmap from conceptual design through the first shovel of dirt. Hands on Engineering: From building ANSYS models, to working with consultants to help develop our seismic loading, to power plant layout, to visiting key manufacturers, to in-water testing, you will stay close to the day to day engineering efforts and be pivotal in tackling our toughest engineering challenges. Project Management: Building the next generation of nuclear power plants will require exceptional project management skills, managing stakeholders, contractors, requirements for our supply chain partners, requirements from our licensing team, and making sure we can deliver plants on time, within budget, to spec. Team Building and Mentorship: As an early team member, you will help establish and uphold Blue Energy's Engineering culture - a culture of curiosity, pragmatism, and overachieving to foster an era of abundance for humanity. You will thrive in this role if you have: Built something real: You have worked from an idea on a page, through FEED, test, all the way to implementation. Whether it is commissioning a new plant, first flight, or the successful deployment of a new technology, you know what is required to bring an idea to fruition. Expertise in highly regulated engineering: You know the regs and standards of your industry inside and out, and maybe have sat on committees to improve them. It's okay if you don't know what NUREG-0800 or ASME NOG-1 are yet, but you should be eager to learn them and spend a lot of time with them. You have worked closely with systems engineers, or have served as one yourself, to help build and adhere to the requirements for your project. Engineering Breadth: Knowledgeable in areas from power plant design, naval engineering, nuclear engineering, geology, analysis (thermal, static, dynamic, CFD, thermodynamics), or proven ability to learn new disciplines quickly. Leadership Skills: Proven ability to provide technical leadership and guidance to multidisciplinary engineering teams, with a track record of successfully leading complex engineering projects from concept to implementation. Entrepreneurial Spirit: A passion for creation, ingenuity, hard work, and running through walls to accomplish your goals. Strong Communication Skills: Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to effectively convey technical concepts to diverse audiences, including clients, regulators, and internal stakeholders. Curiosity: When someone mentions something you have not heard before, you already have a tab open ready to explore. When someone disagrees with you, your immediate response is not defensiveness, but curiosity about what the best solution might be and what might be missing. Pragmatic Creativity: When a technical challenge emerges you contribute novel solutions from yourself and others that are motivated by a reduction in technical, operational, and regulatory complexity. You don't invent new things for the sake of newness, but primarily for the sake of simplification wherever possible. Education and experience: A Bachelor's degree or higher in Nuclear Engineering or a related field, with significant experience (preferably 10+ years) in nuclear, mechanical, civil, or similar engineering roles.
