About the role
Last Energy is productizing a micro-modular nuclear plant and transforming the manufacturing process with the goal of delivering hundreds of installations per year by the end of the decade.

We look for:• Insatiable appetite for learning• Strong teamwork and communication skills• Creativity and willingness to take on new challenges • Extreme flexibility and open to "kill their darlings"• Discipline, thoroughness, and extreme focus when needed
