Electrical Engineer - Buildings (New Grad)

About the Company

General Matter is enriching uranium in America.

Our mission is to restore our country’s ability to make nuclear fuel. Our fuel will help power AI, manufacturing, and other critical industries. It will power our next generation of reactors. Ultimately, it will power our national ambitions.

We were incubated by Founders Fund, like Anduril and Palantir before us, and we are backed by top tier investors. 

Our lean, world-class team of engineers and operators is applying a first-principles approach to solving the problem of nuclear fuel production.

We are a mission-driven company with a culture of urgency, accountability and transparency.

About This Role

We’re looking for an Electrical Engineer (New Graduate) with a strong interest in electrical systems design for industrial and mission‑critical facilities to join our growing engineering team. You’ll collaborate with experienced engineers and designers to develop power, lighting, and low‑voltage systems for data centers, manufacturing plants, refineries, and other large‑scale infrastructure. This is an excellent opportunity for a motivated graduate eager to contribute to high‑reliability, energy‑intensive facility design in the AEC industry.  

Responsibilities:

• Support the design and coordination of electrical power systems in BIM for industrial and critical facilities.  
• Perform load calculations, circuit analysis, panel schedules, and equipment layouts under the guidance of senior engineers.  
•  Assist in the design of medium‑voltage distribution networks, substations, and backup systems including preparing single line diagrams for systems.  
•  Work on lighting design, grounding, and protective device coordination.  
•  Contribute to BIM modeling using Revit and AutoCAD to integrate designs with mechanical and structural disciplines.  
•  Support documentation, specifications, and construction drawings for large‑scale projects.  
•  Participate in workflow automation and data analytics using visual programming (Dynamo, Grasshopper) or coding (Python, C#).  
•  Effectively communicate technical ideas within multidisciplinary project teams.  

Basic Qualifications:

•  Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering or related field (recent graduate or upcoming).  
•  Coursework in electrical power systems, machines, circuits, and building services engineering.  
•  Familiarity with BIM modeling software, such as Revit and AutoCAD.  
•  Understanding of medium‑voltage distribution, load analysis, and design fundamentals.  
•  Knowledge of lighting and energy modeling tools (e.g., Dialux, IES‑VE) is advantageous.  
•  Interest and/or experience in AI tools for design, visual programming (Dynamo, Grasshopper), coding (Python, C#), and/or open‑source projects.  
•  Internship experience at an engineering or AEC firm preferred, especially projects involving industrial or power‑intensive facilities.  
•  Ability to communicate technical information clearly and collaboratively across disciplines.  

Preferred Skills and Experience:

•  Familiarity with electrical codes and standards (NEC, NFPA 70E, IEEE).  
•  Exposure to power system studies, short‑circuit and arc‑flash analysis, or relay protection.  
•  Experience with renewable integration, generator systems, or UPS and battery energy storage.  
• Understanding of data center electrical topologies (Uptime Tier standards, redundancy design).  

Additional Requirements:

• Ability to work extended hours and weekends as necessary.
