Job Description

Our client is seeking to contract with a highly capable and motivated Plant Radiological Integration Engineer that will focus on Nuclear Island System, Structure and Component (SSC) design integration with plant radiological design, analysis, and shielding requirements.

In this role, you will act as a plant integration engineer for client's advanced nuclear reactor projects or other highly technical projects. The successful candidate will integrate and coordinate with engineers working on SSC designs that interface with plant analysis. The Plant Radiological Integration Engineer will work as part of a high-performing team of engineers and scientists.

Responsibilities:

• Coordinate between design teams working on plant source term and radiological release analysis, risk analysis, plant operations and SSC radiological shielding design teams.
• Work between analysis and design teams to ensure alignment between assumptions and considerations made in radiological analysis and ongoing SSC design work.
• Develop Radiation Protection/Shielding design guidance and procedures.
• Generate program documents related to Radiation Protection, Shielding and training
• Understand assumptions and considerations made by the radiological analysis teams, and ensure assumptions are visible and are being implemented by operations and design teams.
• Pursue optimization requests from operations and design teams to radiological analyses and shielding teams
• Lead cross cutting analysis and design decisions.
• Coordinate and review plant analyses and integrate the results into plant design delivery.
• Interface with and support radiological licensing activities associated with Safety Analysis Reports.
• Support design reviews as plant system and subsystem designs are established and refined.

Key Qualifications and Skills

• B.S. in Nuclear, Mechanical, Electrical or related discipline from an accredited university and 10+ years direct experience in design, analysis and/or operations related to radiological protection/health physics at an operating commercial nuclear facility.
• Relevant experience in design of radiation protection elements in a nuclear application.
• Relevant experience in shielding and source term analysis
• Experience performing complex geometry analyses with Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP) code.
• Experience in multi-discipline and multi-organization design integration required.
• Previous experience with nuclear reactors, nuclear handling process systems, or similar high-performance systems or equipment design.
• Excellent technical writing, communication, and presentation skills.
• Attention to detail and aspiration for technical excellence.
• Candidate must be a self-starter and possess ability to coordinate and lead a design team's effort with minimal direction.
• Ability to handle projects that include many competing objectives and design constraints, with ability to resolve conflicts between objectives.
• Ability to work on simultaneous tasks that require a multi-disciplinary approach.
• Experience working to quality standards on design activities, such as ASME NQA-1 or ISO 9001.
• The successful candidate will possess a high degree of trust and integrity, communicate openly and display respect and a desire to foster teamwork.
• Actual position starting level and title will be determined based on assessment of qualifications.
