Test Engineer (Electrical)

General Matter is enriching uranium in America.

Our mission is to restore our country’s ability to make nuclear fuel. Our fuel will help power AI, manufacturing, and other critical industries. It will power our next generation of reactors. Ultimately, it will power our national ambitions.

We were incubated by Founders Fund, like Anduril and Palantir before us, and we are backed by top tier investors. 

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.

As a Test Engineer, you will design, develop, and maintain custom testing solutions for our in-house developed electronics and electro-mechanical hardware. Testing is a necessary quality check during development hardware bring up and will be a critical last line of defense before our hardware is installed in production. This person will be needed to create test systems and infrastructure including hardware, software, and test sequences to exercise all possible failure modes. If you seek high-impact and are excited by fast-paced, intense, Skunkworks-style projects, we encourage you to reach out to join our team.
