Full-Time Operations Associate

Company OverviewBlue Energy’s mission is to unlock energy abundance, energy affordability, energy security, and turn-key decarbonization by developing the fastest path to deploying new nuclear MWs at scale. We are utilizing shipyard manufacturing supply chains and techniques from offshore oil and wind to reduce the cost of nuclear plants by over 60% and the manufacturing timeline to 24 months. Blue Energy is a platform technology that makes use of the latest NRC-approved reactors and is in negotiations with existing nuclear and industrial sites, enabling a much faster regulatory pathway to deploy our first unit. With our innovative centralized shipyard manufacturing approach, we can put nuclear power on a cost-reduction learning curve akin to wind, solar, and lithium-ion batteries. We are backed by an initial $51M in VC funding, and our team brings credentials from Exelon, NET Power, the U.S. Navy, and the NRC. We're on track to build the first centrally-manufactured modular nuclear plants, enabling energy abundance for the world's most innovative industries and economies.
