Join us at Copenhagen Atomics as we finish building a functioning thorium molten salt reactor.

Copenhagen Atomics has invented a new form of nuclear reactor, which is significantly more efficient than any previous nuclear reactors. This will be a game changer for the global energy sector. Our reactors will be able to provide energy at lower cost than any other technology (including fusion).

As a company, we value curiosity, flexibility, being self-driven, yet able to collaborate, and the possibility to grow as a person and professional.

Department:

The department for sensors and electronics are hiring a software engineer to help the team create software for embedded systems, variable frequency controllers (VFDs) and active magnetic bearing machinery (AMB) for nuclear reactors.

As a software engineer you have experience with embedded software development for microcontrollers like STM32 or similar. You have a broad knowledge about control theory and signal processing and working with sensors and understand the underlying physics.

You’ll play an important role in:

  • Developing and optimizing VFD and AMB systems.
  • Help improve the quality of our embedded software.
  • Develop procedures for product testing and quality control.
  • Keep learning and re-thinking our ways of working to achieve global-leader-status.
  • Collaborating with a world-class team on software, electronics and advanced machinery.
  • Engage with the engineers who run the reactors and other test systems.

To succeed in the role, you:

  • Hold an engineering degree with focus on applied control theory or signal processing.
  • Have experience in solving real world control problems.
  • Have experience with development of open source software, GNU and GitHub.
  • Are willing to develop yourself as a professional as other projects and areas of expertise will be required as Copenhagen Atomics will grow.

Additional information & Next Step:

Innovation is at the forefront of our culture and drives us to achieve our goals. As a member of our team, you will have the opportunity to work on groundbreaking technologies with the potential to make a significant impact on the world.

Based in Copenhagen, we are an international team of over 60 engineers, technicians, designers, and more who are in the process of developing a new, low-cost, abundant, sustainable, and safe nuclear technology to be manufactured on assembly lines in the future.
