About the role

The Nuclear Company is building an AI-tech platform that will deploy America's next generation of nuclear power plants. We have world-class engineers building the AI software: you will use these tools to help our team move fast and execute at the highest level.

Your job is simple: 

Use artificial intelligence to make every person - and every team - around you significantly more productive. For example:

Then helping organize permitting documentation, summarizing technical meetings, improving executive communications, creating internal knowledge systems, or redesigning operational processes using emerging AI capabilities. 

Your mission is to discover better ways for humans and AI to work together. 

You will constantly evaluate emerging capabilities, rapidly learn new technologies, improve workflows, eliminate repetitive work, and help our company move faster.
