The Role

We are seeking a Nuclear Turbine Design/Construction Balance of Plant (BOP) Aux Systems Project Manager to support the deployment of new nuclear facilities and upgrade of existing light water reactor nuclear power plants across multiple projects and client environments under DOE , NRC, and international regulatory frameworks.

What You’ll Do

Generate conceptual designs and specifications for balance of plant and auxiliary systems to support the installation of turbines given a certain incoming steam condition and optimizing the megawatts converted to electricity with hand calculations or software as appropriate. Sizing and optimization of primary to secondary heat exchangers or steam generators may also arise. Create request for proposal (RFP) packages to send to nuclear and non-nuclear vendors. Select vendors and negotiate contracts along with technical deliverables and milestone schedules to support relevant projects. Collaborate with vendors to finalize balance of plant and auxiliary system designs and oversee the delivery, construction, and startup of such systems. Turbines ranging from 1 MWe to 200 MWe may be expected. Rankine cycle, supercritical CO2, and other traditional or cutting edge methods of converting heat to electricity may be encountered and experience with different turbine types should be highlighted by such candidates.  

Support the creation of licensing documentation as necessary. Travel up to 15%.

Qualifications

BS, MS, or PhD in Nuclear Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field. Decades of experience doing this task in nuclear industry may suffice in lieu of degree.

The ability to document and defend your work. The ability to mentor junior personnel.

Five years of relevant Project Management, Procurement, or balance of plant related engineering experience (strong preference given to candidates with nuclear industry experience). 15+ years of experience in nuclear specific related work and willingness to relocate to support projects onsite may be required for higher end of the pay range.

Why This Role

Exposure to multiple novel reactor programs and technologies

Opportunity to impact economic, safety, and licensing from early design onward.
