Thorizon is looking for a senior (nuclear) engineer.

The world needs new energy solutions. Future generations deserve to thrive in a clean and just-world. We believe nuclear technology can be used for good. Our purpose is to accelerate the availability of clean energy and help solve the climate crisis. Do you want to contribute to the development of a new energy technology that can safely turn nuclear waste into emission-free energy?

Job Mission

As part of a passionate team, you will help to develop a very promising new design for a molten salt reactor (MSR), an innovative reactor technology that can perform even better in various areas such as safety, waste, construction time, and costs.

We create and operationalize frontier technologies for molten salt reactors.

Sounds appealing? We are looking for people with the following skills:

  • Experience with advanced technology engineering and realisation
  • Combines creativity with pragmatism. Solution- and goal-oriented
  • Eager to learn, likes a technical challenge and to try new things
  • A broad view of technical directions and options as input for making the right strategic technical decisions.
  • Master and bachelor trained (by education or work experience) or a PhD in engineering disciplines. Work experience in complex technology development and a multidisciplinary environment is essential. Experience in the nuclear field is preferable.
  • Likes to work in the dynamics of a startup and project-oriented organisations
  • Takes responsibility and is flexible. In case required you are not hesitant to do your own calculations.
  • Able to work systematically and structured

Is this you? Sounds like a match!

What to expect from us:

We are a company of experienced nuclear professionals. With our expertise, we are committed to accelerating the development of next-generation reactors and contributing to solving today’s energy challenges.
We believe that the Molten Salt Reactor can make a valuable contribution to a future sustainable energy mix: safe and CO2-free energy at a competitive price. In addition, an MSR can supply high-quality heat for industry and this type of reactor is ideally suited for the use of new types of fuel like thorium and existing long-lived nuclear waste, unlocking an abundance of emission-free energy.

You’ll get the opportunity to contribute to the development of a new Molten Salt Reactor design with great potential. You will also work in a dynamic, young organization with excellent growth perspectives. We provide a competitive salary and an employee profit-sharing plan.

Are you enthusiastic about the technology, the possibilities, the challenge, and the collaborations that a startup entails? Are you a team player that wants to learn and contribute with your skills and experience to what Thorizon aims to achieve? Please provide us your application and motivation by mail at info@thorizon.com.
