About Reactor Atlas

Reactor Atlas is built by Federico Caccia, a tech entrepreneur and nuclear engineer.

I’m a tech entrepreneur and nuclear engineer. I turn complex technical problems into products, ventures and tools people can use.

Today, I’m building at the intersection of nuclear engineering and AI. My projects include Reactor Atlas, which makes the world’s nuclear fleet explorable, and Criticality, where reactor physics becomes interactive simulation. I’m interested in making deep technical knowledge useful beyond the people who already understand it.

I co-founded Rather Labs, an engineering company we grew to more than 130 people. Alongside ventures like TranscribeGo, it taught me how to take an idea through product development, build the team around it, and deliver technology used by millions.

My foundation is nuclear engineering at Instituto Balseiro, where I also completed a master’s in engineering. At CNEA, I worked on simulation and safety analysis for the RA-10 research reactor. Later, I brought that computational experience into software and financial infrastructure, including technical leadership at Membrane.

Across these ventures, I work from first principles: understand the problem, build something useful, and create the organization that can carry it forward. That’s the thread connecting my work in nuclear technology, AI and entrepreneurship.

Why this atlas

The atlas comes out of that work. In a safety analysis you spend weeks chasing one precise figure about a reactor — its output, its first criticality date, what was changed and when — and you find it scattered across records that don’t talk to each other. Reactor Atlas is that search done once and in the open: a single view of the world fleet, with the source and the date next to every number.
