Laser-based uranium enrichment technology for nuclear power
Global Laser Enrichment develops SILEX laser enrichment technology for uranium processing. The tech stack reflects a capital-intensive, heavily regulated operation: industrial control systems (Allen-Bradley, Rockwell Automation, FactoryTalk), simulation and design tools (ANSYS, COMSOL), and project-management infrastructure (Primavera P6, NetSuite). Hiring is concentrated in engineering (7 roles) with a seniority mix spanning junior to principal, indicating both prototype-to-production scaling and deep technical leadership needs.
Global Laser Enrichment was established in 2007 to commercialize laser uranium enrichment technology developed in partnership with Silex Systems. The company operates in a highly regulated nuclear environment, developing production-scale enrichment systems and first-of-a-kind mechanical hardware. Active projects span enrichment control systems, plant-wide control strategies, operator interfaces, and major capital program management. The organization manages mission-critical infrastructure with compliance requirements (NIST, IT asset management, secure configurations) typical of the nuclear sector.
GLE commercializes the SILEX laser enrichment process for uranium enrichment, developed in partnership with Silex Systems of Australia. The company has received over $400 million in investment toward bringing the technology to commercial scale.
