Nuclear Opportunities
Emission-free energy, powered by you.
While there are just a few nuclear power plants in California, they account for almost 14% of our energy generation. Nuclear power plants generate energy by capturing the massive amounts of energy released by the splitting of atoms to power steam turbine-generators. This safe and continuous supply of energy requires countless engineers, operators and technicians to operate the large scale facilities and ensure California’s energy needs are met.
Here are just a few of the areas where your talent is needed:
