TerraPower - Company Profile

TerraPower is a nuclear energy technology company based in beautiful Bellevue, Washington. Since its founding in 2006, TerraPower has been dedicated to raising global living standards by creating new forms of energy. The company's mission is to develop scalable, sustainable, low-carbon, and cost-competitive energy sources, with the aim of accelerating economic development and alleviating poverty across nations. TerraPower's centerpiece technology is an advanced nuclear technology called the traveling wave reactor (TWR), which simplifies the nuclear energy supply chain and mitigates many shortcomings of traditional nuclear energy technologies.

In August 2022, TerraPower secured a significant $750.00M Series A investment from notable investors including Hedonova, SK Group, and Bill Gates. This investment reflects the confidence of industry leaders in TerraPower's innovative approach and its potential to shape the future of clean energy.

As a dynamic and growing company, TerraPower actively seeks to attract top talent from diverse fields. They are particularly interested in individuals passionate about advanced nuclear energy research and development and who are eager to contribute to influencing change within the nuclear power landscape. It's important to note that while TerraPower is an equal opportunity employer, its technology is controlled for export by various agencies of the U.S. Government, and as such, they must evaluate foreign national applicants in accordance with U.S. Government export control requirements. This may impact considerations for certain positions based on timely Government export approval.

TerraPower's recent Series A investment is a testament to its potential to revolutionize the energy industry and drive meaningful change on a global scale.
