Fact loc-019
Valar's public job board (Greenhouse, read 29 September 2026; postings updated 28 September) lists 92 openings: 71 in Torrance, California and 21 in Orangeville, Utah, and none in Carbon County, Price or Wellington. The Orangeville posts include plant operators, nuclear operations engineer and manager, instrumentation and electrical technicians, a site environmental health and safety specialist, a construction quality inspector, a development and construction finance director, and a Material Control and Accounting Specialist, whose post says the job leads the safeguards program for special nuclear material at Valar's TRISO manufacturing facilities under DOE and NRC requirements. Two fuel posts (a TRISO chemical plant process engineer, posted 16 July, and a TRISO chemical vapor deposition engineer, posted 31 July 2026) describe work to 'install, troubleshoot, and optimize pilot scale uranium processing equipment' in Orangeville; the second calls it a manufacturing 'pilot line' and says the engineer will build on 'completed HAZOPs and existing safety analyses' (a HAZOP is a structured hazard review) as 'the process transitions into production'. Set beside the record: in June 2026 Valar told Orangeville the fuel building would make it the largest US maker of this fuel once completed (loc-016); the job posts describe a pilot stage now; no DOE authorization for the fuel line was found in the public record (safe-031); and the local job figures in loc-004 cannot be matched to a payroll. Job boards change daily; these counts are as of 29 September 2026.
