TITLE: Materials Engineer, Corrosion/Erosion-corrosion Modeling MCFRLOCATION: Bellevue, WA, USATerraPower is a nuclear technology company based in Bellevue, Washington. At its core, the company is working to raise living standards globally through a more affordable, secure and environmentally friendly form of nuclear energy along with innovations in medical isotopes to improve human health. In 2006, TerraPower originated with Bill Gates and a group of like-minded visionaries who evaluated the fundamental challenges to raising living standards around the world. They recognized energy access was crucial to the health and economic well-being of communities and decided that the private sector needed to take action and create energy sources that would advance global energy deployment. TerraPower's mission is to be a world leader in new nuclear technologies, while developing innovators and future leaders in the nuclear field. As a result, the company's activities in the fields of nuclear energy and related sciences are yielding significant innovations in the safety and economics of nuclear power, hybrid energy and medical applications - all for significant human health benefits.TerraPower is seeking highly motivated and forward-thinking professionals who are interested in focusing on advanced nuclear reactor research and development and influencing change within the nuclear power landscape and bringing forward the critical production of medical isotopes.Materials Engineer - Corrosion / Corrosion-Erosion Modeling (Engineer, Senior Engineer, Principal Engineer), MCFRTerraPower, LLC is seeking a highly motivated Materials Engineer (level to be determined based upon qualifications - Engineer, Senior Engineer, Principal Engineer) to support the engineering efforts of the MCFR Materials Engineering team. This role will be a part of a high functioning team of engineers focused on materials engineering challenges for next generation materials and components for molten chloride fast reactors.You will be an integral part of the MCFR program, providing valuable materials insight and supporting/justifying plant level decisions on materials selection through developing a thorough understanding of material behavior in the molten chloride environment. Development, testing and qualification of materials based upon mechanical properties, corrosion, corrosion-erosion and environmentally assisted degradation responses, and irradiation behavior are some of the main focus areas of the team. You will interface and work closely with the Test Engineering, Radiochemistry and Mechanical Design teams at TerraPower.Responsibilities* Develop predictive corrosion and erosion-corrosion models for materials in molten chloride salts based upon the analysis of experimental results and literature resources* Develop correlations between environment and material response, and use this data as inputs to inform performance models for reactor systems, structures and components* Identify knowledge gaps, design and oversee targeted test programs for material performance and degradation, with a specific focus on corrosion and erosion-corrosion phenomena* Interface with project teams (mechanical design, testing, radiochemistry, etc.) to ensure materials development and testing efforts meet programmatic objectives* Develop test requirements, plans, specifications, and procedures for testing metallic materials in high temperature molten salt environments* Perform qualification of existing data per ASME NQA-1* Work in cooperative projects for materials testing and development with external collaborators, partners, and suppliers* Maintain project schedule and timely delivery of results to internal and external project stakeholders* Provide materials engineering support for the procurement of engineered components and systems* Perform scientifi
