Electrical Maintenance Planner

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.

As part of the Plant Operations organization, Utah Site Operations manages the day-to-day operation, maintenance, and readiness of Valar's Utah facilities. The team supports safe, reliable site operations while enabling successful project execution.

Valar Atomics is seeking an Electrical Maintenance Planner to develop electrical maintenance work packages for the Orangeville pilot plant. You’ll support the development of planning standards, templates, and eMaint CMMS workflows as the site transitions from construction through commissioning into operations.

• Develop detailed work scope definitions for corrective, preventive and predictive maintenance on electrical equipment, including MV/LV distribution, switch gear, transformers, motor control centers, motors, UPS and battery systems, emergency power, and instrumentation and control circuits.
• Prepare and review work control packages that reference applicable procedures, drawings and work instructions, and that identify required tools, test equipment, spare parts, and vendor or contractor support.
• Incorporate electrical safety requirements, including NFPA 70E, LOTO and isolation boundaries, into work packages.
• Establish schedule activities, durations and resource requirements, and provide alternative recommendations when constraints arise.
• Build and maintain asset records, PM schedules and work orders in eMaint (CMMS).
• Coordinate with operations, engineering, health physics, EHS and supply chain to ensure work is ready to execute.
• Ensure packages comply with applicable DOE nuclear safety requirements, OSHA standards, and site procedures.
• Use automated tools to develop schedules, spreadsheets, reports and graphics.
• Help create and continuously improve planning procedures, templates and standards as Valar scales.

• High school diploma or GED.

• Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, one-line diagrams and wiring diagrams.
• Must be a U.S. person (see Export Control below).
• Ability to work on-site in Orangeville, Utah.

• Hands-on experience with eMaint or a comparable CMMS such as Maximo, SAP PM or Passport.
• Background as an electrician or I&C technician (journeyman or equivalent).
• Experience with DOE work control processes, such as Integrated Safety Management.
• Familiarity with scheduling tools such as Primavera P6 or MS Project.
• Experience supporting commissioning or startup of a new facility.
• Comfort in a fast-paced, early-stage environment where processes are still being built.

• Equity ownership in a rapidly growing advanced energy company
• Free daily lunch
