Job Description

Interested in helping us transform thermal and electric energy

Become a part of the leading GenerationIV nuclear plant development team.


Terrestrial Energy is developing for nearterm commercial operation a zeroemissions cogeneration plant for global industry using its proprietary Integral Molten Salt Reactor (IMSR) fission technology in an innovative small and modular plant design. The IMSR is a nonLight Water Reactor of the Generation IV class that operates at the high temperature required for broad industrial relevance with transformative economic potential. The IMSR plant is capable of gridbased electric power generation and industrial cogeneration in many energyintensive industries including petrochemical and chemical synthesis for hydrogen and ammonia production. The IMSR plant offers a near 50 percent improvement in efficiency of electric power generation compared to Light Water Reactor nuclear plants. Its industrial cogeneration capability delivers to todays markets industrial competitiveness security of energy and zeroemissions industrial production. The IMSR plants use of existing industrial materials components and fuels supports its nearterm deployment setting the stage for a rapid global decarbonization of the primary energy system. To execute this plan we are now looking to add talented people to the team each of whom will:

  • improve our team by adding diverse perspectives and innovative ways of problem solving
  • have demonstrated exceptional results in engineering projects
  • be a team player with the ability to collaborate closely and interact with other groups
  • be flexible and adaptable to change
  • have skillset and experience that relate to thefollowing role:


The Stress Analyst under the direction of the Mechanical Engineering Manager is primarily responsible for stress analysis using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and hand calculations for nuclear systems/structures/components through Engineering Design. Other responsibilities include:

  • Prepare stress analysis calculations analyses and assessment documents for piping pressure vessels and incore components including thermal fatigue creep dynamic and static linear and nonlinear analysis incorporating feedback from senior team members.
  • Prepare clear and concise technical reports documenting analyses where required.
  • Assess structural integrity risks and optimize mechanical design and performance using FEA results.
  • Communicate and work with various technical disciplines to understand interfacing system design(s) and interfacing requirements as well as system/component loading (thermal pressure hydrostatic deadweight and seismic).
  • Coordinate and interface with the plant layout lead in the development of 3D CAD models and 2D engineering drawings for the responsible mechanical components.
  • Contribute to timely resolution of mechanical design challenges and address risks escalating technical issues as needed.
  • Demonstrated ability to work with teams on problems that are challenging to solve and requiring innovative solutions.
  • Conduct presentations to interdisciplinary teams and external parties.
  • Interface with external vendors experts and design agencies.
