About This Job

Job Description Summary

Plant electric power distribution systems (EPDS) design including nuclear (NI) and turbine island (TI), balance of plant (BOP), and interface to switchyard and grid. Scope includes safety-related (S-R) or Safety Class 1 (SC1), augmented quality or SC2 and SC3, and nonsafety-related (NSR) systems for; advanced light water reactor (ALWR) [focus on BWRX-300] and advanced liquid metal reactor (ALMR) [Natrium] for commercial nuclear power plants and test facilities. This role focuses on the analytical aspects of electrical systems discipline. Responsible for all aspects of electrical systems analysis including technical leadership and process ownership.

Job Description Essential Responsibilities:

+ Static documents or; reports, specifications, databases, tabular lists of; functions, sizing calculations, equipment and instrument characteristics and configurations, electrical and heat loads, physical layout or placement in rooms, buildings, structures, + Static diagrams or drawings of; context or functional block, one or single line, three line, relay coordination, electrical schematic, inter-connection wiring, etc., + Dynamic physics based and electrical simulation design and analysis [e.g.; ETAP] models.

Collaborate with other disciplines to define and achieve functional, performance, reliability, availability and maintainability (RAM) goals using failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA), probabilistic risk analysis (PRA), and related modern techniques.
Lead or support; nuclear regulatory certification or licensing, procurement packages and hand-off to suppliers for implementation of systems and components requirements including; function, performance, design assurance, qualification [environmental, seismic], regulatory and standards compliance, human factors, safety hazards, reliability, cyber security, etc.
Collaborate with and provide oversight of suppliers thru procurement and construction to develop, perform, and review unit, module, system, and integration test plans, procedures, and reports including; factory acceptance, site acceptance, pre-operational, and start-up tests including inspection, test, or analysis and acceptance criteria thru commercial operations date.
Establish productive working relationships with; product and project management, support functions, Architect Engineer (A/E), Engineer-Procure-Construct (EPC) partner(s), and suppliers.
Perform detailed oversight, review, and verification of deliverables from suppliers to ensure their; adequacy, accuracy, completeness, and compliance with requirements.
Perform optioneering or trade-off studies for technical, risk, and cost optimization
Prepare detailed work plans covering scope, labor budget, and schedule.
Ensure deliverables are on-spec., on-budget, and on-schedule.
