About this role

Reactor Core Thermal Fluids Engineer Santa Clara, CA or remote Thanks for your interest in Oklo! We are searching for a Thermal Fluids Engineer to join our Core Thermal-Hydraulics team. Position Description The Core Thermal-Hydraulics team at Oklo is responsible for analyzing fluid flow and heat transfer within a reactor core. The work includes engineering analyses of thermal-fluid dynamics, clear and thorough documentation of the analyses, as well as interfacing with design teams. A engineer on the team will contribute to the development, qualification, and validation of methods for modeling coolant flow within reactor cores using one-dimensional models, intermediate-fidelity subchannel models, and high-fidelity computational fluid dynamics models. Specific responsibilities may include: - Modeling core thermal-hydraulic behavior using - subchannel codes such as DASSH, MOOSE-Subchannel, or COBRA-TF - one-dimensional systems codes such as SAS4A/SASSYS-1 or RELAP - first principles approaches and in-house flow network models - 3-D computational fluid dynamics - Developing and documenting methods to analyze core thermal-hydraulic behavior at steady-state and during transients - Automation, verification, and validation of modeling and simulation tools in support of analyses - Collaborating cross-functionally to define design requirements, and providing technical feedback to quick-iterating design teams Minimum Qualifications - Bachelors, Masters, or PhD in a technical field, such as nuclear, mechanical, or aerospace engineering - Proficiency with thermal fluids (thermal-hydraulics) analysis methods and first principles - Able to write clear and concise documentation - Experience with - low-fidelity and intermediate-fidelity (e.g., porous body and correlation-based) models for heat transfer and fluid flow -
