Responsibilities

As a Summer Field Engineer Intern at General Matter, you'll be on the ground in Paducah during active construction of our flagship uranium enrichment facility. It's a first-of-a-kind plant being built on the site of the former Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant, which helped fuel America for sixty years. You'll be the link between design and the field, helping turn drawings and specifications into installed work, catch problems before they cost the schedule, and build the record that shows the plant was built right.
Most construction interns are one of dozens on a job at a large contractor, with little ownership of real work. Here you'll sit on the owner's team for one project of national importance. You'll take on meaningful scopes of work and work directly alongside the superintendents, engineers, and quality team delivering it. You'll see how a nuclear facility comes together, and you'll help build it.
If you seek high impact and are excited by fast-paced, intense, Skunkworks-style projects, we encourage you to apply to join our team.
