Standard Nuclear is fueling America's nuclear renaissance at industrial scale. Our mission is to deliver the essential building blocks of nuclear power - enabling cost-effective, safe, and secure energy for the world.

The Nuclear Material Accountability Engineer supports Standard Nuclear's Nuclear Material Control & Accountability (NMC&A) Program across nuclear fuel manufacturing, laboratory, storage, material handling, and shipping/receiving activities. This role ensures nuclear material is accurately identified, measured, tracked, controlled, reconciled, and reported in accordance with approved procedures and applicable DOE, contractual, and facility requirements.

The position serves as a qualified Material Balance Area Coordinator (MBAC) for one or more assigned Material Balance Areas (MBAs) and supports day-to-day accountability activities including material transactions, physical inventories, material movements, measurement data review, tamper-indicating device (TID) controls, discrepancy resolution, records, and reporting.

This role works closely with Operations, Quality, Security, Radiation Protection / ES&H, Shipping and Receiving, Engineering, and NMC&A leadership. It requires strong analytical judgment, exceptional attention to detail, disciplined recordkeeping, and the ability to independently recognize, investigate, and escalate nuclear material discrepancies.
