Fuel Cycle Modeling Engineer

Description

You will work closely with our cross-functional team—including reactor physics, materials science, and regulatory engineers—to perform in-depth analysis and modeling of the fuel's behavior, depletion, and long-term performance. This role is focused on developing the fuel cycle strategy, optimizing fuel efficiency, modeling source terms, and ensuring safety throughout the entire lifecycle of Hadron's micro modular reactor.

Requirements

• Deep expertise in isotopic depletion and transmutation simulation tools
• Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD in Nuclear Engineering, Materials Science, Physics, or a related field
• Strong understanding of nuclear fuel materials, radiation damage, and the thermal-mechanical behavior of fuel
• Familiarity with fuel fabrication or enrichment processes is a plus
• Knowledge of spent nuclear fuel characteristics, waste management, and regulatory frameworks
• Strong analytical, communication, and teamwork skills
• 5+ years of experience in nuclear fuel cycle analysis and fuel performance modeling
• Experience with fuel performance codes (e.g., BISON, FRAPCON) is highly desirable
• Proficiency in codes such as SCALE (ORIGEN), Serpent, MCNP, or equivalent for fuel cycle and depletion analysis
