Duke Energy’s 11 operating nuclear reactors make Duke Energy a clean energy leader in the electricity generation industry. The Nuclear Fuels Engineering (NFE) department is seeking candidates who are passionate about nuclear energy’s role in a clean energy future. Duke Energy’s NFE department is unique in the industry by owning and performing in-house methods and analysis for nearly all aspects of the fuel cycle, from contracting fuel supply to long term storage of spent fuel.

Duke Energy is headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, a growing and vibrant city in the Carolinas. Candidates have the opportunity to work from Duke Energy’s brand new, state-of-the-art, headquarters building with onsite dining, a medical clinic and a fitness center. For those that prefer a suburban or rural lifestyle, we offer the flexibility to work from our nearby nuclear sites at attractive locations such as Lake Norman, NC or Lake Wylie, SC. All our office locations are easy driving distance to the ocean or the mountains, making Charlotte an ideal location for your next home.

The Safety Analysis Applications (SAA) group is responsible for developing, maintaining and executing the in-house methodologies for Duke Energy’s PWR fleet related to the computer simulations of the containment response during transient and accidents described in UFSAR Chapter 6. These methodologies support various analyses for proposed power uprates and 24-month fuel cycle transitions at applicable sites. Some of the other SAA responsibilities include:

• ECCS hydraulic simulations
• Emergency Procedure Setpoints
• Emergency Operating Facility (EOF) technical support
• LOCA analysis vendor interface
• transient validations of the training simulators

This position requires strong analytical skills and attention to detail to solve complex/first-of-a-kind problems by researching issues, evaluating alternatives, making sound recommendations and defending the chosen design approach. Due to the diversity of assignments within the SAA group, a continuous learning aptitude and technical curiosity are required. This position also requires performance within a team-oriented environment that includes both site and corporate organizations.
