About the role

The Nuclear Company is hiring an AI Engineer 1 to help build and run the backend, data, and integration layers that NOS depends on. You will report to the Director of Platform Integrations and work in the Platform Integration & AI/Data squad. NOS is the software platform behind one of the largest nuclear buildouts in the United States, and the platform layer is what keeps it fast, reliable, and connected to the systems around it. This is a hands-on, entry-level role. You will work alongside the Platform Engineer and other senior engineers on CI/CD, backend services, and the data and application integrations that tie NOS to internal systems and external sources, taking well-scoped features end to end under senior code review. You will ramp on Palantir Foundry and the team's AI and data tooling, write production code, open pull requests, and grow into a specialization over time. 

Responsibilities

First 90 Days: 

• Help build and maintain the application and data integrations that connect NOS to internal systems, partner APIs, and external data sources, working from well-scoped tickets under senior review. 

• Take ownership of scoped CI/CD and release tasks that keep NOS builds repeatable, tested, and traceable. 

• Do basic backend and DevOps work: build and fix backend services, write tests, and handle routine platform monitoring and maintenance. 

• Ramp on Palantir Foundry, the data ontology, and the MCP interfaces that let AI agents work against NOS data and start contributing to them. 

• Partner with the Platform Engineer, data scientists, AI/ML engineers, and product engineers, and grow from paired work toward independent delivery. 

Required Experience

• Computer science degree or equivalent, with 0-2 years of professional experience (internships, co-ops, and project work count). 

• Strong fundamentals in at least one backend language (Python and/or TypeScript preferred; Go or Java also welcome). 

• Some hands-on exposure to basic DevOps and backend work: CI/CD, version control, REST APIs, or wiring systems together, from an internship, a job, or a personal project. 

• Has built something with AI beyond using a chat assistant: multi-step prompts, custom tools, AI in the codebase, or a small agentic project. 

• Good written and verbal communication, and willingness to learn the nuclear and regulated-industry context. 

Preferred Experience

• Exposure to a major cloud (AWS preferred), including coursework or personal projects. 

• Coursework or project work in CI/CD, infrastructure as code, or configuration management. 

• Coursework or project work in LLMs, agentic systems, or data modeling. 

• Familiarity with Palantir Foundry, Databricks, or Snowflake. 

• Internship or project work in a regulated or mega-project industry (nuclear, aerospace, defense, energy, medical). 

Benefits

• Competitive compensation packages
• 401k with company match
• Medical, dental, vision plans
• Generous vacation policy, plus holidays
