This is a senior engineering position that offers a variety of interesting and challenging opportunities in component qualification engineering and will provide an excellent opportunity to advance your career. You will collaborate with a team including other component qualification engineers, interface with engineers from other disciplines, and guide the work of less experienced project team members.

You will work with an engineering team on projects for license renewals and upgrades/modifications to nuclear power plants in the following areas:

• This position will offer you the ability to directly apply your knowledge of component environmental qualification for 10CFR 50.49 equipment.
• As a member of an engineering team, you will work on a wide range of projects for various clients. You will prepare and review calculations, review qualification reports from vendors, develop specifications, revise client design basis documents and support EQ-related inquiries from clients.
• Perform Environmental Qualification qualified life assessments using the Arrhenius method and updates to other qualification documentation
• Perform Linear Regression analysis to determine activation energies
• Coordination of EQ testing at various testing facilities
• Provide and coordinate resolution of anomalies with sites and test facilities
• Equipment material suitability analysis
• Review of Maintenance and Surveillance requirements
• EPU and postulated accident effects on equipment
• Radiation dose effects on EQ equipment due to fuel and fuel cycle changes
• There is the potential for travel to client and vendor offices for design reviews and to plant site locations for construction coordination and field verification of designs.

We do not sponsor employees for work authorization in the U.S. for this position.

Essential skills and experience:

• Bachelor of Science (BS) in engineering degree with emphasis in Electrical or Mechanical Engineering from an ABET-accredited program
• Ten (10) or more years of experience related to component environmental qualification activities in the nuclear power plant industry
• Knowledge of nuclear power plant equipment functionality, materials of construction, failure modes, etc.
• Familiarity with NRC IE Notices, Bulletins, Generic Letters
• Familiarity with industry DOR plant requirements, 10CFR Part 50.49, 10CFR Part 21, Regulatory Guides, NUREG and EPRI Documents, IEEE 323, IEEE 383, IEEE 334, IEEE 317 and other IEEE Standards applicable to environmental qualification.
• Proficiency with MS Office applications
• Good written and verbal communication skills

Valued, but not required:

• PE license

In this role, we expect people to be willing or able to lead others who use modern tools:

• You are expected to lead others in taking engineering problems from issue to solution by setting expectations for using data and modern tools such as automation and AI to improve workflows, reduce rework, and deliver cost-effective designs.
• Leaders in these roles often direct automation and process-improvement work, for example, how teams automate calculations, summarize technical documents, or generate design documentation and guiding when and how AI or agentic AI tools are used while ensuring results are checked.
• Overseeing engineers who program or script (e.g., Python, MATLAB, advanced Excel) to automate engineering tasks, with review of automated outputs, is valued but not required.
• We also value additional learning, such as a minor, certificate, or other experience in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Software Engineering, or related fields that enables effective oversight of automation and agentic AI-enabled engineering workflows.
