Overview
Do you get energized by sensors, data, and electronics that make complex machines smarter? As a Sr. Instrumentation Electronics Engineer at Centrus Energy, you’ll build the nervous system of our advanced centrifuge technologies—crafting clever circuits, integrating sensors, and designing data-acquisition and control solutions that keep America’s clean-energy future spinning. You’ll develop new instrumentation electronics, write LabVIEW-based tools that turn signals into insight, and help bridge R&D to production with designs that are reliable, scalable, and wildly effective. If you enjoy turning engineering challenges into elegant hardware-and-software solutions, this is your kind of playground.
