Description

Nuclear Power is a carbon-free energy source. Our nuclear power generation clients are digitizing their existing power plants and building new nuclear power plants, small modular reactors (SMR) due to the increasing demand for electric power. This is expanding our work in the Instrumentation and Controls Engineering group. Due to this influx of work, Sargent & Lundy has a need for additional I&C Engineers.

This I&C position offers the opportunity to work on upgrading and modernizing nuclear power plants with the latest control technologies the industry offers.

  • Develop Digital Systems Design -- PLC, DCS, HSI, networked computer systems.
  • Prepare control system functional and implementation requirements and procurement specifications for nuclear plant control systems.
  • Interface with the client to ensure proper project execution and client satisfaction.
  • Prepare and review technical reports, calculations, and studies to present information in a clear and concise manner to meet client requirements.
  • Manage resources/resource loading and develop estimates for task completion and budget development.
  • Support the development of proposals.
  • Prepare and review diagrams and drawings for new and upgraded controls solutions.
  • Evaluate vendor bids from a technical perspective.
  • Interface with vendors to perform document reviews, ensure equipment compliance with specifications and needs of the plant, and witness FAT performance on behalf of the client.
  • Support implementation of the project at the client’s facilities.
