The Naval Nuclear Laboratory is the U.S. Navy’s trusted partner for superior nuclear propulsion technology, design, testing, training, and support. We have cradle-to-grave responsibility from technology development through design to disposal. We have one mission: to develop the world’s best naval nuclear propulsion systems for all U.S. Navy submarines and aircraft carriers, training Sailors to operate them, and provide full lifecycle support to the Fleet. We offer a unique opportunity to contribute to a unique mission – to ensure the effectiveness and safety of our designs, to ensure the unfailing availability of these national assets, to train the Sailors that operate these propulsion plants, and to responsively and safely dispose of spent fuel. The Naval Nuclear Laboratory relies on the dedication and innovation of our nearly 8,000 engineers, scientists, technicians, and support personnel.
