Thanks for your interest in Oklo! We are searching for an Instrumentation & Controls Technician to join our team in Idaho Falls.

Oklo is transforming the future of energy, and we are looking for an experienced Instrumentation & Controls Technician to support the design, fabrication, commissioning, and operation of test platforms used in advanced nuclear technology development.

The ideal candidate has broad, hands‑on instrumentation experience and strong familiarity with the Emerson DeltaV distributed control system. Experience working under a nuclear quality assurance program, particularly ASME NQA-1, is preferred.

• Instrumentation Installation and Integration: Install, terminate, configure, and verify sensors, transmitters, control valves, analyzers, data‑acquisition equipment, and associated electrical and pneumatic systems.
• Control System Support: Configure, operate, troubleshoot, and maintain distributed control systems, programmable logic controllers, data‑acquisition systems, human‑machine interfaces, and test control hardware. Support development and modification of Emerson DeltaV configurations, graphics, alarms, and control strategies.
• Test Platform Fabrication: Support the fabrication and assembly of test platforms, including instrument panels, control cabinets, junction boxes, cable trays, conduit, tubing, wiring, and pneumatic systems.
• Test Operations: Support test readiness reviews, equipment startup, test execution, shutdown, and post‑test activities. Monitor instrumentation and control‑system performance during testing and respond to abnormal or unexpected conditions.
• Troubleshooting and Maintenance: Diagnose and correct instrumentation, electrical, communications, controls, and data‑acquisition issues. Perform preventive maintenance and recommend improvements that increase reliability, maintainability, and test efficiency.
• Procurement and Equipment Selection: Assist with the selection and procurement of instrumentation, controls equipment, calibration tools, electrical components, and test‑platform materials. Coordinate with suppliers and verify that procured equipment meets technical and quality requirements.

• Associate degree, technical diploma, apprenticeship, military technical training, or equivalent practical experience in instrumentation, controls, electronics, electrical technology, industrial automation, or a related field.
• At least 3 years of hands‑on experience with industrial instrumentation, control systems, test systems, process facilities, or similar equipment.
• Experience installing, calibrating, commissioning, maintaining, and troubleshooting industrial instrumentation.
• Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, loop diagrams, piping and instrumentation diagrams, instrument data sheets, and equipment manuals.
• Familiarity with common industrial signals and protocols, including 4–20 mA, discrete I/O, HART, and Ethernet‑based communications.
• Experience using calibration and diagnostic equipment such as digital multimeters, process calibrators, pressure calibrators, loop simulators, communicators, and electrical test equipment.
• Ability to lift, move, and position equipment weighing up to 30 pounds.

• Strong familiarity with the Emerson DeltaV distributed control system, including system operation, hardware, I/O, configuration, graphics, alarms, control modules, and troubleshooting.
• Experience supporting thermal‑hydraulic, mechanical, chemical, high‑temperature, high‑pressure, or liquid‑metal test systems.
• Experience working in nuclear, aerospace, defense, pharmaceutical, chemical processing, power generation, or another highly regulated industry.
• Familiarity with ASME NQA-1 requirements, particularly requirements related to test control, calibration, procurement, document control, and configuration management.
• Instrumentation Expertise: Broad knowledge of industrial measurement technologies, including temperature, pressure, flow, level, position, force, strain, vibration, and other process or test measurements.
• Controls Knowledge: Practical experience with…
