NANO Nuclear Energy's Ambitious Recruitment for KRONOS MMR
NANO Nuclear Energy's Ambitious Recruitment for KRONOS MMR
NANO Nuclear Aims to Expand Engineering and Project Development Team to Support U.S. and Canadian KRONOS MMR Energy System Reactor Construction and Licensing Efforts
NANO Nuclear Energy Inc. (NASDAQ: NNE) is embarking on an exciting recruitment initiative aimed at bolstering its team in the Midwest region. This initiative is part of a larger strategy to construct, demonstrate, and secure regulatory approval for full-scale KRONOS MMR Energy Systems in both the United States and Canada.
The expansion of the technical and project execution team is a vital step in NANO Nuclear’s journey from the design phase to the actual commercial deployment of the innovative KRONOS microreactor. As the company prepares for critical geological characterization work at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) site, the recruitment drive will help consolidate the necessary expertise and personnel to complete the construction permit application and kickstart construction of the first KRONOS prototype on the UIUC campus.
“As we gear up to break ground on the KRONOS reactor prototype at UIUC, it’s time to scale our team to align with our vision,” said James Walker, Chief Executive Officer of NANO Nuclear. “We are reaching out to the brightest minds in nuclear and energy innovation in the Midwest region—we’re building a reactor, and we need your expertise!”
Now Hiring Across All Core Disciplines
NANO Nuclear is keen on recruiting top professionals across several vital disciplines for the KRONOS MMR project. The available positions include:
- Nuclear Engineers – Specializing in fuel & materials, reactor physics, thermal hydraulics, safety, and licensing
- Mechanical Engineers – Focused on design, structural, CAD, and balance of plant
- Electrical Engineers – Experts in instrumentation & control (I&C), power electronics, and transmission
- Civil Engineers & Geotechnical Experts – Responsible for site layout, structural foundations, and drilling operations
- Project Managers & Construction Specialists – Providing full-cycle oversight from permitting through commissioning
- QA/QC Professionals – Ensuring compliance with nuclear-grade standards and supplier oversight
- Licensing & Regulatory Affairs Experts – Handling NRC and CNSC compliance and documentation
- Skilled Technicians – Including those involved in fabrication, assembly, testing, and field support
NANO Nuclear encourages applications from individuals with experience in nuclear R&D, DOE national labs, or similar programs focused on small modular reactors (SMR) or microreactor development.
“Our collaboration with UIUC will serve as a critical operational hub for our KRONOS reactor development,” expressed Jay Yu, Founder, Chairman, and President of NANO Nuclear. “It will house the growing team working on our U.S. research reactor, while also preparing for our demonstration reactor deployment in Canada, paving the way for broader commercialization opportunities.”
Canadian Reactor Construction Also in Focus
In addition to the UIUC research reactor, NANO Nuclear is preparing to build a KRONOS demonstration reactor in Canada, entering the licensing process under the oversight of the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC). This effort will culminate in a fully licensed KRONOS unit, allowing NANO Nuclear to streamline the deployment of its microreactor technology through construction, demonstration, regulatory licensing, and eventual commercialization across North America.
“Canada presents an exceptional opportunity for clean and reliable microreactor deployment,” added Florent Heidet, Chief Technology Officer and Head of Reactor Development of NANO Nuclear. “By expanding our team and integrating new talent, we are ensuring that we have the capacity to execute multiple full-scale projects in both countries, each navigating independent regulatory pathways with significant market potential.”
Join the Team Shaping the Future of Nuclear Energy
NANO Nuclear Energy is not merely envisioning the future; it is actively engineering, constructing, and progressing towards regulatory licensing for that future. With several microreactor projects in the pipeline, alongside a fuel qualification methodology already approved by the NRC, NANO Nuclear stands out as one of the most dynamic and ambitious advanced nuclear developers globally.
“This recruitment drive is an invitation for those who aspire to be part of history,” emphasized James Walker. “If you dream of helping build the next generation of nuclear reactors from the ground up—this is your opportunity.”
