Standard Nuclear is building nuclear fuel manufacturing at scale to support America's nuclear energy renaissance. The Chemical Engineer role is a hands-on position supporting fuel manufacturing operations, with initial focus on sol-gel chemical processing. You will work closely with operations, fuel development, quality, characterization, EH&S, and radiological controls teams to improve, scale, and troubleshoot chemical production processes.
Key responsibilities include:
- Support day-to-day chemical manufacturing operations through process monitoring, troubleshooting, and technical problem-solving
- Develop and improve process parameters, operating windows, and production methods to support repeatable output
- Identify sources of yield loss, variability, rework, or process inefficiency and implement corrective actions
- Translate process knowledge into repeatable manufacturing practices
- Help increase yield, throughput, product consistency, and operational safety
- Work in a regulated nuclear fuel fabrication environment where process control, documentation, and disciplined execution are critical
This role requires strong chemical engineering fundamentals, practical manufacturing judgment, and comfort working in a highly regulated nuclear environment. You will be responsible for supporting process performance and technical execution for manufacturing activities involving chemical processing, material formation, and downstream production steps. The position offers the opportunity to contribute to critical infrastructure and energy security while working with cutting-edge nuclear fuel technology.
