About The Role
Licensing Project Manager
Torrance, California, United States
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.
The Team
As part of the Regulations & Safety organization, Regulatory & Licensing manages engagement with regulatory authorities and supports licensing activities for Valar's technologies and facilities. The team ensures regulatory compliance while advancing strategic business objectives.
The Role
The Licensing Project Manager manages the scope, schedule, budget, and execution workflow of assigned licensing projects. Working with the Project Licensing Lead, the Licensing Project Manager coordinates work across licensing engineers, program owners, engineering, and operations; runs the project's tracking systems; and keeps deliverables off the critical path through disciplined workflow management.
Key Responsibilities
Develop and maintain the licensing project schedule, including document gestation periods, review-cycle counts, and regulator review durations; integrate with the overall project schedule.
Run the project workflow: single-point assignment of incoming items, action tracking with automated reminders, and active (not passive) review and approval steps.
Maintain the comment resolution and commitment trackers; ensure no comment source (letter, email, meeting, or call) escapes consolidated tracking.
Coordinate inputs across engineering, operations, and program owners; communicate exactly what is needed from each contributor and by when.
Assemble and control submittal packages; verify completeness and consistency before transmittal.
Report progress, risks, and compensatory actions to the Project Licensing Lead and Director of Licensing.
Maintain the project's reference library and chapter care packages so contributors start from controlled, current baselines.
Basic Qualifications
Bachelor's degree in engineering, science, or a related field.
Seven (7) or more years of project experience in engineering, licensing, construction, or operations, or related experience, including five (5) years in the nuclear field.
Preferred Skills and Experience
Project Management Professional (PMP) or equivalent certification.
Licensing or safety basis project management experience.
Experience coordinating regulator submittals and comment resolution.
