- Experience with piping design and analysis
- Experience working within quality programs (NQA-1, AS9100, ISO 9001, or similar)
- Strong problem-solving skills with ability to manage competing priorities and constraints
- Excellent communication, technical writing, and collaboration skills
- High attention to detail and commitment to technical excellence
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience in nuclear, power generation, or other highly regulated industries
- Experience supporting system integration and plant-level design
- Familiarity with advanced reactor technologies
Work Environment
