Job Description
This role is responsible for the development and design of the site, layout, buildings and structures of the Xe-100 plant. This includes concept development and evaluation, as well as analysis and design of systems, structures, and components (SSCs). This role will collaborate with a multi-disciplined team of engineers, suppliers, construction contractors and other project stakeholders, and support key objectives in deploying the Xe-100 plant that has advantages in safety, reliability, economics and sustainability relative to current day power generation units.
Job Profile Tasks/Responsibilities
  • Support development of plant site/layout and design of buildings/structures through final design and construction of the Xe-100 plant.
  • Perform, manage, and oversee engineering and construction of the site and building structures for the Xe-100 project. This includes planning, monitoring, and directing of the complete engineering efforts through all development life cycles.
  • Apply engineering principles, codes and standards and best practices to design the site, buildings and structures for hazards including seismic, flood and wind.
  • Define, manage, and verify the requirements for the site, buildings and structures. Ensure the buildings and structures perform required functions throughout the plant life cycle. Ensure that the requirements in the full life cycle are timely addressed in the system design (e.g., constructability, testability, reliability, maintainability, safety, flexibility, interoperability, etc.).
  • Develop innovative concepts that can be implemented in a cost-effective and schedule-considerate manner while meeting the needs of customers.
  • Develop and implement risk-informed performance-based (RIPB) design criteria. Assist other teams to perform risk and hazard assessments, such as probabilistic risk assessment (PRA), failure modes effects analysis (FMEA) and hazard and operability analysis (HAZOP).
  • Work with construction teams to evaluate constructability, sequencing, material take-off, cost estimate, schedule development, and modularization concepts for the Xe-100 plant.
