Complete engineering projects by analyzing technical problems, defining project scope, and organizing and controlling all project elements from inception to completion.
Provide expert advice on mechanical design processes and construction methods for nuclear power plant systems and components.
Formulate and direct investigations, prototype evaluations, model development, and system studies, including analyzing and interpreting test and analytical data.
Recommend practical applications of investigation results to improve system performance, reliability, and safety within nuclear power plant environments.
Perform detailed reviews of complex engineering calculations, design deliverables, and technical documentation to ensure accuracy, quality, and compliance with applicable codes and standards.
Analyze engineering problems and establish general performance specifications for mechanical components, equipment, systems, and processes.
Evaluate mechanical and electromechanical systems and products by applying principles of mechanics, thermodynamics, hydraulics, heat transfer, and materials science.
Collaborate with other engineers and project stakeholders to determine project priorities, resolve technical issues, and understand the implications of design decisions on the work of others.
Develop effective technical solutions and define appropriate deliverables that address client needs and resolve identified issues.
Approve or provide input on work schedules and make recommendations for additional resources or special equipment when required to meet project objectives.
Apply and adhere to client Engineering Change Control processes for nuclear power generation utilities when implementing design changes.
Incorporate Nuclear Quality Assurance Standards into design activities, documentation, and review processes.
Communicate clearly with station and utility customers to explain technical concepts, present findings, and build trust-based working relationships.
