Hiring — 4 openYC-W26Industrials -> EnergyEarly

What Terranox AI does

Terranox is the first vertically integrated AI-powered uranium exploration company. We find high-grade uranium deposits in North America using AI trained on 70+ years of exploration outcomes. Our mission is to find the fuel we need to power the next century with nuclear energy.

4 open roles

Founding AI/ML Engineer
San Francisco, CA, USFull-time3+ years$150K - $250K0.10% - 1.00% equityVisa: US citizen/visa only
What the role involves

About Terranox We're the first AI-powered uranium discovery company. Nuclear is the only clean, scalable, and baseload energy source available today, and we’re structurally short on uranium. We're addressing that by applying AI/ML to a discovery process that hasn't fundamentally changed in decades. Backed by General Catalyst, 776 Ventures, Y Combinator, and others. The role You'll be our first dedicated ML hire building the ML systems at the core of Terranox. The work spans multiple modalities and model classes, much of it without an off-the-shelf playbook. You'll train computer vision models from scratch on messy, sparsely-labeled data and ship them into a production pipeline that drives real-world decisions. This is a hands-on, build-from-zero role. Requirements 5+ years of ML experience, with a track record of building ML systems from scratch Strong computer vision background Experience taking ML systems to production Comfort framing ambiguous problems, not just solving well-defined ones Fluency with recent ML research and the ability to translate it into shipped systems Bonus but not required Geospatial experience Background in sparse-label or weak-supervision regimes Prior early-stage startup experience Logistics In-person in San Francisco

Founding Applied Scientist
San Francisco, CA, USFull-timeAny (new grads ok)$150K - $250K0.10% - 1.00% equityVisa: US citizen/visa only
What the role involves

About Terranox We're the first AI-powered uranium discovery company. Nuclear is the only clean, scalable, and baseload energy source available today, and we’re structurally short on uranium. We're addressing that by applying AI/ML to a discovery process that hasn't fundamentally changed in decades. Backed by General Catalyst, 776 Ventures, Y Combinator, and others. The role You'll be our founding applied scientist, anchoring the scientific foundations of our discovery stack. You'll lead how we work with the full range of geoscientific data — geophysical, geochemical, geological, and remote sensing — from what we acquire, to how we process and integrate it, to how it feeds the systems that drive our targeting decisions. Much of the work has no off-the-shelf playbook. Requirements PhD in geophysics, applied physics, computational physics, applied mathematics, or a closely related field; or equivalent deep technical expertise Deep experience with exploration geophysics and with geophysical inversions Strong scientific computing skills (Python, the standard stack) Working fluency with ML — you can be a real thought partner on what we're building Comfort with ambiguous, sparse, multi-modal data Bonus Experience working alongside ML researchers or engineers Prior early-stage startup experience Logistics In-person in San Francisco

Senior Exploration Geologist
Saskatchewan, CA / SK, CA / Remote (SK, CA; Saskatchewan, CA)Full-time6+ years$115K - $185K CAD0.10% - 0.50% equityVisa: US citizenship/visa not required
What the role involves

About Terranox We're the first AI-powered uranium discovery company. Nuclear is the only clean, scalable, and baseload energy source available today, and we’re structurally short on uranium. We're addressing that by applying AI/ML to a discovery process that hasn't fundamentally changed in decades. Backed by General Catalyst, 776 Ventures, Y Combinator, and others. The role You'll be Terranox's geological anchor — the deep domain expertise that grounds our targeting in real subsurface geology and keeps our field work rooted in how Athabasca uranium deposits behave. You'll work closely with our science and ML teams, bridging data-driven targets and the geological picture on the ground, and leading the field execution behind our drill programs. Requirements 10+ years of exploration geology experience, with Athabasca Basin uranium experience as a core part of your background P.Geo. designation, registered or eligible for registration with APEGS Track record on real exploration programs — drill program design, execution, and geological interpretation Deep understanding of unconformity-related uranium deposit models and the geological controls on mineralization in the Athabasca Experience managing diamond drilling contractors, assay labs, and geophysical service providers Comfort working alongside data-driven and quantitative targeting methods, and genuine interest in how AI/ML can change how exploration is done Bonus Qualified Person status under NI 43-101 Direct contribution to a named uranium discovery Logistics Based in Saskatchewan, with regular travel to San Francisco for team time

Summer Intern - Applied Science MSc/PhD
San Francisco, CA, USInternship$8K - $16KVisa: US citizen/visa only
What the role involves

About Terranox We're the first AI-powered uranium discovery company. Nuclear is the only clean, scalable, and baseload energy source available today, and we’re structurally short on uranium. We're addressing that by applying AI/ML to a discovery process that hasn't fundamentally changed in decades. Backed by General Catalyst, 776 Ventures, Y Combinator, and others. The role You'll work on a real research problem at the intersection of geophysics and modern ML. The summer's output will feed directly into how we explore for uranium in the field. With a strong fit, this internship can lead to a full-time offer. Requirements Currently pursuing an MSc or PhD in geophysics, applied physics, computational physics, applied mathematics, or a closely related field Strong scientific computing skills (Python, the standard stack) Interest in applying modern ML to geoscientific problems Bonus but not required Hands-on experience with ML methods on real geoscientific data Background in exploration geophysics Logistics In-person in San Francisco
