Requirements:

Project Context

We are currently pursuing Extended Power Uprates (EPU) for PWR and BWR units. For these projects we are currently developing Design Input Requests (DIRs) to support analysis by external Architect-Engineer firms to assess the plant under EPU conditions to support the license amendment and potential plant modifications. We will be receiving Task Reports detailing the results of these analyses which will undergo validation through owner acceptance. We are seeking experienced nuclear professionals who can provide technical support throughout the project lifecycle.

Required Experience
Bachelor's degree in Engineering or related technical discipline preferred.
5+ years of commercial nuclear power plant experience.
Strong understanding of nuclear plant systems, operations, engineering, or licensing processes.
Ability to work effectively in a multi-disciplinary environment supporting EPU-related activities.
Familiarity with nuclear plant systems, design processes, operations, or licensing.
Strong technical writing and communication skills
Experience at another Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) or Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) facility.
Direct involvement in a Power Uprate (EPU or other uprate project) at a commercial nuclear plant.
Demonstrated understanding of engineering, operations, or licensing considerations associated with power uprate implementation.

Job responsibilities include:
Develop design inputs
Validate scoping documents for system evaluations
Perform engineering review of work products demonstrating feasibility for power uprate on existing nuclear power plants.
Equipment specifications
Hydraulic calculations
Developing datasheets for valves and other equipment
Providing technical direction to designers
Developing design input requirements
Reviewing results from engineering reports assessing the feasibility of uprate activities and the modifications necessary for the plant

Skillsets and expertise:
Significant experience with design of new construction and/or retrofit of power generation or heavy industrial facilities
The ability to take the lead role for detailed design activities
Significant knowledge of mechanical engineering design principles
Proficiency with applicable codes standards and regulatory requirements
Experience in development, preparation and checking of p&ids
Experience with overall design and layout of piping systems
Pipe sizing and routing
Material selection
Pipe support design
Equipment selection
Preparation of inquiry packages/data sheets
Specification of tanks, pumps, and balance of plant equipment
Experience with hydraulic calculations
Fathom, Pepse (or similar software) experience is preferred
