Travel: As required to support projects, audits, suppliers, and regulatory engagements - periodic travel to nuclear facilities, projects, fabrication shops, and client locations
Position Summary:
The Nuclear Quality Assurance (QA) Manager is responsible for establishing, implementing, and maintaining a compliant Nuclear Quality Assurance Program in accordance with ASME NQA-1, 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, 10 CFR Part 21, and applicable NRC and customer requirements.
