About the Company General Matter enriches uranium. We are designing, building, and operating the world’s lowest-cost enrichment services, here in the US.   In the process, we are restoring America’s ability to produce nuclear fuel to power AI, advanced manufacturing and critical industries our country relies on to remain competitive.  Fuel drives the cost of advanced reactor electricity production, and enrichment drives the cost of the fuel that advanced reactors consume.  Reliable, low-cost enrichment is the catalyst for the nuclear Renaissance now under way. Our mission is to make nuclear not only the cleanest and safest source of baseload power, but also the most affordable.  We believe abundant nuclear energy will lead to a post-scarcity society.  We were incubated inside Founders Fund, like Anduril and Palantir before us, and are backed by over a dozen of the world's top venture capital firms.   Our lean, world-class team of engineers and operators is applying a first-principles approach to solving the problem of nuclear fuel production.   We are a mission-driven company with a culture of urgency, accountability, and transparency.  Help us build a high-energy society by making the cleanest, safest form of baseload energy the most affordable.  About This Role We are seeking a skilled Radiological Protection Engineer to provide technical expertise in radiation protection and safety for the design and licensing of nuclear fuel cycle facilities. This role is critical to ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements and the development of robust radiological protection measures for safe and efficient operations. Responsibilities Develop and implement radiological protection programs and strategies for nuclear facility design and licensing. Perform radiological analyses to evaluate potential exposure risks and ensure compliance with NRC, DOE, and international standards (e.g., 10 CFR Part 20, ICRP, and ANSI). Support facility licensing activities by preparing radiological safety documentation, including environmental impact statements and safety analysis reports. Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to incorporate radiation protection measures into facility design, including shielding, ventilation, and monitoring systems. Conduct dose assessments for workers, the public, and the environment using advanced modeling and analytical tools. Evaluate radiological instrumentation and monitoring systems to ensure adequacy and compliance with project requirements. Provide technical support during regulatory reviews, inspections, and hearings. Stay informed of advancements in radiation protection technologies and best practices, integrating them into project strategies. Develop and deliver training programs to personnel on radiological protection principles, standards, and procedures. Basic Qualifications Strong understanding of engineering fundamentals. Ability to perform trade studies and make clear recommendations using first principles and engineering fundamentals even with partial information. Bachelor’s degree in Health Physics, Radiological Engineering, Nuclear Engineering, or a related field.  Proficiency in radiation protection software and modeling tools (e.g., MCNP, SCALE, MicroShield). Strong knowledge of regulatory requirements, including 10 CFR Part 20, NRC guidance, DOE orders, and international standards. Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills with attention to detail. Effective communication skills for preparing technical reports and collaborating with cross-functional teams. Preferred Skills and Experience Evidence of exceptional ability (prior projects, portfolio of work, completed products, etc). Experience in a fast-paced engineering environment or a highly technical role requiring a resourceful, entrepreneurial approach to complete tasks within tight timefr
