About the role
- This is a senior, high-ownership role for a builder-leader who is equally comfortable whiteboarding a data ontology, reviewing a CI/CD pipeline, and shipping a unified front-end interface.
- You'll define how our systems talk to each other, how our data is structured and made useful, and how intelligence gets embedded into every layer of our platform.
Responsibilities
- Define and own the integration architecture across internal systems, partner APIs, OT/IT interfaces, and external data sources (grid operators, regulatory bodies, sensor networks)
- Build and lead a team of integration engineers, data engineers, and technical program managers
- Establish standards for API design, data contracts, event-driven architecture, and interoperability across the platform
- Partner closely with Product, Infrastructure, and Data Science to align integrations with product roadmap priorities
- Collaborate with the ML and Data Science teams to embed model inference into real-time and batch integration pipelines
- Design data flows that feed predictive maintenance, anomaly detection, and operational optimization models with high-quality, low-latency inputs
- Drive adoption of modern integration patterns - event streaming (Kafka, Pub/Sub), API gateways, service meshes, and data mesh principles
- The Nuclear Company is the fastest growing AI tech-enabled startup in the nuclear and energy space, pioneering a fleet-scale approach to building the next generation of nuclear reactors.
- Through our design-once, build-many model, we're accelerating the deployment of safe, reliable, and affordable nuclear energy.
- We hire people who are driven by purpose, thrive in ambiguity, and are energized by building what has never been built before.
Benefits
- AI & Machine Learning Integration
- Champion ML-readiness in integration design - ensuring data schemas, event streams, and partner feeds support model training and continuous learning loops
- Our team combines intellectual curiosity with high agency, embraces candid feedback and continuous learning, and holds themselves and others to exceptional standards.
