Engineer will be part of a team executing a U.S. Government cost-shared development program requiring efficient completion of engineering assignments.
Typical Responsibilities would include:- Provide in-depth technical expertise to develop, manage and implement nuclear fuels engineering analysis, activities and programs.
- Develop and implement technical oversight and collaboration activities with fuel vendor to assure fuel and core component in-reactor design requirements are in accord with SMR-160 licensing activities.
- Design, modeling, and analyses of the nuclear core and fuel system that involve the use of engineering computer codes, empirical methods, and first principle methods.
- Calculations that support safe plant operation by confirming that fuel rods thermo-mechanical properties are in accord with SAFDLs and to provide initial (pre-transient) fuel rod conditions as input to downstream safety analyses (i.e., rod ejection accident).
- Report preparation and licensing documentation.
- Participation in meetings with clients, collaborators, and with the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

- General knowledge of nuclear fuels and power plant operations/physics.
- Demonstrated experience and proficiency with nuclear fuel performance or structural analysis software to design and analyze nuclear fuels for a range of reactor conditions (e.g., BISON, FRAPCON/FRAPTRAN, TRANSURANUS, FALCON, PARFUME, or ANSYS).
- MS in nuclear engineering with emphasis on fuel mechanics and reactor physics.
- 5+ years of experience in the nuclear industry, especially performing engineering calculations/evaluations.
- Demonstrated experience and proficiency in performing routine confirmatory calculations and supports reviews and evaluations of the safety and non-safety related reactor systems design, technical specifications, the reactor core, fuel and systems design, nuclear methods, or performance of operating reactor.
- Experience preparing licensing documents for submittal to NRC and comprehensive knowledge of NUREG-0800 (NRC Standard Review Plan for LWRs) Chapter 4 and 15 requirements.
