Antares
Electrical Engineer II
About this role
Antares seeks an Electrical Engineer to design and develop instrumentation, control, and power distribution systems for advanced nuclear microreactors. You'll collaborate across teams to create safety-critical electrical architectures that meet DOE and NRC licensing requirements, from concept through testing and integration.
What you'll do
- Design electrical systems for reactor instrumentation, control, and power distribution from concept to detailed implementation
- Create schematics, wiring diagrams, and interface definitions for sensors and control hardware
- Review electrical designs, wiring diagrams, harnesses, and control panel layouts for technical accuracy
- Participate in design reviews and hazard analyses to identify electrical failure modes and mitigations
- Support testing activities including bench testing, hardware-in-the-loop, and integration campaigns
- Collaborate with systems, mechanical, software, and licensing teams on cross-functional projects
What they're looking for
- Electrical system design and analysis
- Schematic and wiring diagram creation and review
- DC/AC circuit fundamentals and transient analysis
- CAD tools (SPICE simulators, schematic capture, PCB layout)
- Lab instrumentation (oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies)
- Failure mode analysis in electrical and control systems
- Safety-critical design principles
- Technical communication and documentation
