Why This Role Matters

Are you a talented software engineer who thrives on solving complex, real-world problems? We are looking for an experienced developer to help build, refine, and maintain high-impact software powering our control room simulator environments. You will play a vital role in delivering production-ready, client-server software solutions where uptime, safety, and performance are top priorities.

What You'll Do

• Develop & Innovate: Design, build, test, and maintain robust software applications supporting control room simulators and related technical platforms.
• Problem Solve: Diagnose complex software defects, engineer reliable solutions, and identify root causes to maximize system reliability and performance.
• Drive Quality: Write clean, maintainable code following strict configuration management and software QA standards.
• Collaborate & Lead: Work closely with cross-functional engineering teams to vet architectures, review code, and deliver scalable, high-quality features.
• Hands-On Setup: Manage local and remote hardware configurations (workstations, displays, networking) as needed, with limited paid travel to company facilities.

• Education: B.S. in Software Engineering, Computer Science, Computer Programming, or a related technical discipline. (Degrees in Mechanical or Nuclear Engineering with 5+ years of proven software deliverables will also be considered.)
• Experience: 5+ years of hands-on professional software engineering experience, ideally focused on high-uptime, customer-facing, or client-server systems.
• Core Technical Stack:
• Strong proficiency with C#, WPF, SQL, Visual Studio, and Git/GitLab.
• Solid understanding of object-oriented design, data structures, and performance optimization.
• Knowledge of networking fundamentals and distributed architecture.
• Regulatory Compliance: Must be eligible to work under U.S. Department of Energy 10 CFR Part 810 regulations.
  

• Analytical Thinker: Comfortable independently investigating bug reports and turning abstract requirements into working code.
• Strong Communicator: Skilled at discussing technical details with both developers and non-technical stakeholders.
• Quality & Safety Minded: Committed to rigorous software testing, continuous learning, and high standards of operational safety.

• Ability to operate standard office equipment, communicate via phone/video, and adapt quickly in a fast-paced setting.
• Position involves sitting, standing, walking, and occasional hardware assembly (cabling, computer setups).
• Ability to travel nationally using standard commercial transit.
