Thanks for your interest in Oklo! This is an open call for all kinds of engineers and other professionals interested in joining our fuel recycling team!
Oklo is preparing to deploy the first modern U.S. fuel recycling facility.

We are looking for exceptional individuals that are:

- Motivated by building, and getting technology deployed
- Energized by tackling and overcoming challenges
- Willing and able to learn quickly
- Willing to think differently and do things in new ways
- Comfortable in a fast-paced, highly-iterative startup environment
- Excited to think creatively, critically, and reflectively about the problems they are solving while not leaning only on what has been done before
- Willing to propose novel and creative solutions to technical problems
- Able to communicate technical content and results verbally
- Excellent writers who can write in a modern active voice (so make your cover letter compelling and write it well!)
Who you are
A startup person: You aren't driven by titles or hierarchy, and prefer efficiency to excess process. You don't need or expect to have a lot of guidance but you enjoy working in a fast-paced team. If you prefer the culture and feel of a large organization, that is great, but you likely won’t enjoy working with us! There is plenty of important work and plenty of good opportunities with organizations like that.
Motivated: You are self-motivated. You bring an enthusiasm to the team, and imbue a sense of passion that goes beyond clocking in and clocking out. This isn’t about a fake or arbitrary “pieces of flair” mentality or lack of work-life balance! It is about being a part of the vision and feeling a part of reaching team goals.
A team-player: Oklo genuinely is a team. We aren’t about taking credit for ourselves, and we aren’t about pushing blame to others. We do incredible things because we work as a team.
An excellent communicator: We need a person who is not only able to communicate effectively, but who is excited to do so.
