Valar Atomics is building scalable, clean, high-temperature nuclear power systems to unlock abundant energy for industry, hydrogen production, and next-generation manufacturing. The company is developing advanced nuclear systems and fuel fabrication capabilities, with a pilot plant under development in Orangeville, Utah.
The Production Quality Admin role is a production-floor execution and system-integrity position within the Regulations & Safety organization. This is not an inspection, technician, or quality engineering role—it is focused specifically on organizing, tracking, and closing out the records and workflows generated by production quality activities.
You will work directly alongside Production Quality Supervisors and Engineers on the manufacturing floor in Torrance, supporting fuel fabrication and advanced nuclear systems production. Your core mission is to ensure that what is supposed to happen on the floor, what actually happens, and what can be proven all align, without slowing production down.
Key responsibilities include:
- Maintain traceability, documentation, and execution discipline for all production records
- Drive production-related nonconformances, CAPAs (Corrective and Preventive Actions), and quality actions to closure
- Coordinate follow-up across Production, Operations Quality, and Engineering without creating bottlenecks
- Verify build records, material traceability, and process verification documentation
- Ensure required documentation and objective evidence for production activities exists, is accurate, and retrievable
- Process and classify production-related nonconformances, tracking them through assignment and resolution
- Track CAPAs tied to production execution through to closure, confirming actions are completed and evidence is captured
- Work cross-functionally with Production Quality Supervisors, Quality Engineers, Operations, and Engineering to ensure production quality requirements are understood, executed, and documented
- Support internal and external audits by preparing records, verifying completeness, and coordinating responses
- Identify recurring gaps or inefficiencies in production quality workflows and provide feedback to leadership and continuous improvement teams
This role operates in a fast-paced manufacturing environment with evolving work instructions, distributed verification, and aggressive build schedules. You will need to keep pace with active production while maintaining high attention to detail.
Qualifications:
- Strong ability to organize, track, and follow through on open items without losing sight of the bigger system
- High attention to detail while keeping pace with active production schedules
- Ability to understand how production processes connect, how data flows between them, and how actions on the floor impact downstream work
- Comfortable working across Production, Operations, and Engineering teams
- Able to ask clear questions, follow up persistently, and drive alignment without formal authority
- Comfortable operating in fast-paced production environments with evolving priorities and incomplete systems
- Able to prioritize effectively under changing conditions
- Ability to work within digital systems, databases, and tracking tools
- Familiarity with structured workflows and documentation systems is preferred
