Document Editor Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Deep Fission is a nuclear technology company pioneering the development of a revolutionary deep borehole pressurized water reactor. We recently completed a private placement financing and Alternative Public Offering and are now operating as a public company while maintaining our startup agility and innovation focus. With strategic partnerships in place, strong private and public investment, and active engagement with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), we are executing our next phase of growth as we advance our groundbreaking nuclear technology toward commercial deployment.
Deep Fission is seeking a detail-oriented and systems-driven Document Control & Records Management (DCRM) Specialist to support the development and execution of its document control and quality records program within a regulated engineering environment.
This role will focus on spanning document and records control, EDRMS system administration, and technical editing of engineering deliverables. As Deep Fission's engineering program grows and fabrication, testing, and construction activity increases, so too will the volume of design documentation, technical deliverables, transmittals, and records requiring control, tracking, and system maintenance. This role is being added to get ahead of that growth and to ensure the DCRM program scales effectively alongside engineering execution.The ideal candidate brings experience working within structured document control systems, is comfortable developing templates and workflows, and can provide technical editing and formatting support for engineering deliverables. This role requires comfort operating in fast-paced, startup environments where processes are actively being built and refined. The DCRM Specialist will serve as a key coordination point between design engineering, project teams, external suppliers, and quality assurance on all documentation requirements.
