<p><strong>About Valar Atomics</strong></p> <p>At Valar Atomics, we're redefining what's possible in energy. Our mission is to make clean, high-temperature nuclear power scalable—unlocking abundant energy for industry, hydrogen, and next-generation manufacturing. We are a team of builders, engineers, and operators who believe nuclear energy should be fast to deploy, factory-made, and built for the real world. Our first pilot plant in Orangeville, Utah will demonstrate how advanced nuclear systems and fuel fabrication can power the future. Joining Valar Atomics means becoming part of a company where autonomy, ownership, and impact exist at every level.</p> <p><strong><span data-contrast="none">The Team</span></strong> </p> <p><span class="TextRun SCXW27535037 BCX0" lang="EN-US" data-contrast="none"><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW27535037 BCX0">As part of the </span></span><span class="TextRun SCXW27535037 BCX0" lang="EN-US" data-contrast="none"><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW27535037 BCX0">Manufacturing</span></span><span class="TextRun SCXW27535037 BCX0" lang="EN-US" data-contrast="none"><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW27535037 BCX0"> organization, the Fabrication</span><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW27535037 BCX0"> and </span><span class="NormalTextRun ContextualSpellingAndGrammarErrorV2Themed SCXW27535037 BCX0">welding</span><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW27535037 BCX0"> shop</span><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW27535037 BCX0"> produces complex structural and mechanical assemblies that meet demanding quality and performance requirements.
