Civil Engineer PE - Paducah
General Matter
<p><strong>About the Company</strong></p> <p></p> <p><u>General Matter enriches uranium.</u></p> <p>We are designing, building, and operating the world’s lowest-cost enrichment services, here in the US. &nbsp;</p> <p>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.&nbsp;</p> <p>Fuel drives the cost of advanced reactor electricity production, and enrichment drives the cost of the fuel that advanced reactors consume. &nbsp;Reliable, low-cost enrichment is the catalyst for the nuclear Renaissance now under way.</p> <p>Our mission is to make nuclear not only the cleanest and safest source of baseload power, but also the most affordable. &nbsp;We believe abundant nuclear energy will lead to a post-scarcity society.&nbsp;</p> <p>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. &nbsp;</p> <p>Our lean, world-class team of engineers and operators is applying a first-principles approach to solving the problem of nuclear fuel production. &nbsp;</p> <p>We are a mission-driven company with a culture of urgency, accountability, and transparency.&nbsp;</p> <p>Help us build a high-energy society by making the cleanest, safest form of baseload energy the most affordable.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>About This Role</strong></p> <p>As a Civil Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in executing a state-of-the-art enrichment facility from concept through commissioning. This role will ensure that our enrichment facilities meet safety, efficiency and environmental standards.&nbsp;</p> <p>You will have the opportunity to work on a greenfield project collaborating with mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, architects, and both internal and external partners to develop detailed structural designs and specifications. You will wear multiple hats and supporting your design work through vendor activity and constructions administration. This is an exciting opportunity to solve complex problems at scale, manage multiple projects in a dynamic environment, and bring modern enrichment facilities online.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Responsibilities</strong></p> <ul> <li>Preparation and modification of various engineering documents including reports, specifications, plans, construction schedules, cost estimates and design plans for projects using engineering and design software (AutoCAD, Civil 3D, etc.) and equipment.</li> <li>Use site visits, reports, maps, drawings, engineering plans, tests, and aerial photographs to assess soil composition, terrain, hydrological characteristics, and topographical and geologic data and their impact on the planning and design of our facilities</li> <li>Implement site safety activity plans and coordinate field work activities.</li> <li>Take full ownership of civil permitting processes, working directly with regulatory agencies, municipalities, and environmental consultants</li> <li>Ensure project compliance with federal, state, and local zoning, land use, and environmental regulations</li> <li>Conduct civil engineering risk assessments, ensuring mitigation measures are in place for hydrology, land grading, and flood zone constraints</li> <li>Collaborate with EPC project managers, construction teams, and subcontractors to refine site development strategies</li> </ul> <p><strong>Basic Qualifications</strong></p> <ul> <li>Bachelor's degree in structural engineering or similar discipline.&nbsp;</li>
