Executive Assistant

Our Mission Is Simple: Democratize Access To Clean Energy

Welcome to BlueCore Energy! We are on a relentless mission to democratize access to clean energy . By designing and building advanced floating Pressurized Water Reactors (PWRs) on barges right here in Long Beach, CA, we are bringing scalable, clean, and reliable power to the world. Joining our team means getting in on the ground floor of a revolution in marine small modular reactors (SMRs). If you are passionate, driven, and ready to tackle some of the most exciting challenges of our time, we want you on our team!

Our Values

• Humility — We hold strong opinions loosely, say “I don’t know,” ask for help early, and let the best idea win regardless of who it came from.
• Inclusivity — The best engineering comes from many perspectives. We build a team where everyone is heard, and we mean it.
• Pragmatism — We solve the real problem in front of us, reuse what already works, and value a tested answer over an elegant one.
