Base pay range $95,000.00/yr - $145,000.00/yr About Us At Antares, our long-term mission is to make clean energy abundant from Earth to the Asteroid Belt. We’re fueled by the belief that advanced nuclear energy can strengthen our military, solve the climate crisis, elevate global living standards, and expand humanity's presence in outer space. To achieve our mission, we’re building mass-producible, inherently safe, deployable microreactors that can be used terrestrially, underwater, and in space.

Our facility is in the heart of Los Angeles' vibrant emerging tech ecosystem alongside many other high growth startups and enterprises. Culture At Antares, we tie each role to our founding document’s values. Here are the top five cultural values we think you should believe at your core to be successful: Think in Systems - Energy and Defense are complex ecosystems with numerous stakeholders. Think probabilistically and then take action. Obsess over the End User - The customer and end user are often not the same. We will never build globally competitive commercial products if we lose sight of end users. Be Unconstrained by Convention - Our only limits are the laws of physics. Never shy away from a solution because it hasn’t been tried before. Craftsmen - Focus on high-quality engineering, learning, and developing a long-term career path for exceptional individual contributors. Seriously Optimistic - We’re ambitious and reward audacity while maintaining a positive, constructive culture. Equal Opportunity Antares is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
