At NANO Nuclear Energy, you'll play an important role in supporting Engineering and Quality Assurance as we formalize our document-control processes and implement an enterprise Records Management System (RMS). This is an opportunity to contribute to both day-to-day document management and a broader systems transformation. You'll help organize and migrate legacy technical records, maintain control of active engineering documentation, and support the development of more efficient, reliable processes. Working closely with engineering professionals, project teams, and external stakeholders, you'll help ensure that critical technical information is accurate, accessible, traceable, and properly controlled. Why This Opportunity Stands Out Help Shape New Processes: Contribute to the development and implementation of document-control procedures and a new enterprise Records Management System. Beyond Traditional Document Control: Gain hands-on experience with document migration, metadata management, process improvement, and system implementation. Direct Engineering Exposure: Work closely with Engineering, Quality Assurance, project teams, and external partners supporting advanced nuclear technology. Meaningful Ownership: Manage important technical documents throughout their lifecycle, from initial review and approval through revision, retention, and archiving. Professional Development: Expand your technical knowledge through mentorship, cross-functional collaboration, and exposure to evolving document management systems. Flexibility & Benefits: Enjoy a hybrid schedule, competitive benefits, retirement matching, unlimited PTO, and relocation assistance for qualified candidates. What You’ll Do Document Management & Control Manage engineering and quality documentation, including design documents, technical specifications, drawings, calculations, procedures, supplier records, and vendor submittals.

Coordinate the exchange of controlled documentation between NANO and external organizations. Records Management & Systems Implementation Review, organize, classify, and index legacy Engineering and Quality Assurance documentation in preparation for migration to new systems. Identify document ownership, applicability, lifecycle status, and migration requirements while resolving or escalating missing, duplicate, and outdated records. Prepare, validate, and reconcile document metadata and source data for migration into Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), RMS, and other approved repositories. Maintain interim tracking logs and status reports to ensure active documents remain controlled and traceable during system implementation. Support document management throughout its lifecycle following implementation. Quality, Compliance & Collaboration Partner with internal departments, project teams, and external stakeholders to maintain accurate and accessible documentation. Support internal audits, quality assessments, and document retrieval requests. Assist with user training and help resolve document-control, system, and data-quality issues.
