  • Collaborate cross-functionally with manufacturing, quality, procurement, and project engineering teams to ensure designs are robust, manufacturable, and compliant
  • Interpret and apply ASME and other relevant codes and standards applicable to nuclear pressure boundary components
  • Generate engineering documentation including calculations, reports, drawings, specifications, and procedures

In this role, you will work with minimal supervision, exercising sound engineering judgment while following established procedures and developing new processes where required. The ideal candidate is technically rigorous, detail-oriented, and capable of developing practical, innovative solutions within the highly regulated nuclear industry.
What You Bring:
  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering
  • Minimum 2-3 years of demonstrable experience
