This is an impactful opportunity for an engineer passionate about advancing clean energy technologies and solving complex engineering challenges.

Accountabilities:

As a Plant Integrated Analysis Engineer, you will perform advanced engineering analyses supporting reactor system development, plant modeling, and operational evaluations. You will collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering teams to ensure accurate modeling, validated results, and effective design solutions. Your responsibilities will include:

• Developing RELAP5-3D models for steady-state and transient one-dimensional network hydraulic analyses.
• Creating plant-level control strategies and component-level controller models.
• Performing calculations based on heat transfer, fluid dynamics, and thermodynamics principles to validate analysis results.
• Analyzing normal operations, upset conditions, emergency scenarios, and fault events to establish design requirements, service conditions, and operating limits.
• Conducting plant-wide transient analyses to evaluate operating scenarios and support design decisions.
• Performing multidisciplinary control analyses involving thermal hydraulics of sodium, molten salt, and non-condensable fluids.
• Supporting the integration of component, system, fuel, and control system designs with thermal-hydraulic testing activities.
• Collaborating with safety, instrumentation and controls, and engineering design teams to address technical challenges.
• Developing analytical methods and improving modeling approaches when required.
• Preparing clear technical documentation and communicating engineering findings effectively.

Requirements:
The ideal candidate has a strong background in nuclear, mechanical, or electrical engineering with experience in thermal-hydraulic analysis and system simulation. You should be comfortable working on complex engineering problems, collaborating with multidisciplinary teams, and communicating technical results clearly. Required qualifications include:

• Bachelor’s degree or higher in Nuclear Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline.
• Experience using system analysis codes such as RELAP5 or TRACE.
• Strong understanding of thermal-hydraulic analysis, one-dimensional hydraulic network modeling, and transient simulation.
• Experience modeling control systems and instrumentation and control (I&C) systems is highly desirable.
• Familiarity with nuclear power plant design or operations is preferred.
• Experience developing new analytical methods or engineering approaches is a plus.
• Strong technical writing and documentation skills.
• Excellent communication and collaboration abilities.
• Ability to work effectively in multidisciplinary engineering environments.
• High level of integrity, professionalism, and commitment to teamwork.

Benefits:

• Competitive hourly compensation ranging from $37 to $74 per hour.
• Fully remote work opportunity.
• Full-time contract engagement.
• Opportunity to contribute to innovative nuclear energy technologies.
• Exposure to advanced reactor system development and multidisciplinary engineering projects.
• Collaboration with experienced technical teams across safety, controls, and design functions.
