Role SummaryDesigns and analyzes the instrumentation and control (I&C) systems for the reactor and ship plant, sensors, control logic, protection systems, and operator interfaces. Uses the engineering simulator to develop, test, and validate control strategies and system response.
What you'll do- Design and analyze I&C systems, considering control logic, reactor protection, and human-machine interfaces.
- Develop and validate control strategies and system response using the engineering simulator, tuning logic and verifying behavior across normal and transient conditions.
- Define I&C requirements, set points, and instrument specifications, and establish interfaces with plant systems.
- Support failure modes, reliability, and safety analyses for control and protection functions.
- Document I&C designs, simulator validation results, and as-built configurations, and support design reviews and integration testing.
What you bring- Bachelor's degree in electrical, computer, nuclear, or systems engineering required (advanced degree preferred).
- Experience designing or analyzing instrumentation and control systems, preferably for nuclear or other safety-critical plants.
- Familiarity with control system modeling and engineering simulators for design validation.
- Working knowledge of reactor protection systems, sensors, and control architectures.
- Strong grounding in control theory and signal processing.
