Senior Electrical Engineer

Join Radiant, a pioneering company in the nuclear microreactor industry. As a Senior Electrical Engineer, you will be responsible for designing and developing industrial electrical control hardware, leading the design of fault-tolerant and safety-critical electrical systems, and ensuring compliance with electrical codes and safety standards. You will collaborate with multidisciplinary teams and have the opportunity to work in a beautiful El Segundo headquarters close to the Pacific Ocean.

• Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to support the architecture, design, implementation, and testing of the microreactor electrical control systems.
• Design and develop industrial electrical control hardware including schematics, wiring diagrams, harnessing, and integration assemblies.
• Lead design of fault-tolerant and safety-critical electrical systems, emphasizing reliability, maintainability, and regulatory compliance.
• The ideal candidate should be comfortable jumping from designing circuit boards to integration work interfacing with fault-tolerant, off-the-shelf hardware
• Experience with Ethernet, EtherCAT, Modbus, CANbus, RS-422, or other communications protocols
• 5+ years of experience designing electrical hardware
• Experience designing, analyzing, and working safely with industrial power systems including 120 VAC, 208 VAC, and 480 VAC equipment, including applicable electrical safety practices
• Strong electrical engineering fundamentals
• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering or related field
• Experience using electrical design software such as AutoCAD Electrical, Zuken, or similar schematic and wiring design tools
• Experience designing fault-tolerant and safety critical hardware
• Experience selecting, integrating, and troubleshooting sensors including pressure transducers, RTDs, thermocouples, shaft speed and position sensors, IEPE vibration sensors, and MEMS-based sensors
• Experience specifying and integrating Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs), soft starters, and motor control centers (MCCs)
• Experience in electrical architecture make vs. buy trades
• Experience with Siemens NX
• Experience with PLCs, Twincat, structured text programming
• Experience with Python, C/C++, or scripting languages for test automation, data acquisition, or diagnostics
• Familiarity with EMI/EMC mitigation techniques and testing
• Experience supporting nuclear instrumentation systems
• Experience with FMEAs and hazard analysis
• Experience with industrial network architecture and deterministic control networks
• Must work 100% onsite at El Segundo HQ
• Must be willing to work extended hours and weekends as necessary to accomplish our mission
