What You Will Do

This position is open for external candidates only to apply.




The Product Realization and Reliability Office (PRRO) in Nuclear Production Operations consists of a multidisciplinary group of engineers and scientists that support plutonium programs (i.e., pit production, surveillance, research & development, and subcritical experiments) across the entire Nuclear Production Operations organization.

The PRRO Office is seeking a digital engineering technologist to support standardization of process and data usage in support of factory floor improvements. The objective of this role is to standardize information collection practices, engineer solutions for leveraging the data to drive factory floor change, and link the information with other systems (PLM/MRP/MES/RMS etc.). This position will primarily consist of office work with occasional shop floor interactions. The technologist position will provide as-needed support to different digital engineering initiatives and achieve a broad understanding of the digital engineering domain. Training for specific digital engineering capabilities will be provided.

Digital Engineering Technologist 1 - Engineering Technologist 1 ($87,800 - $143,000)

The selected candidate will be responsible for-

  • Supporting the development of continuous improvement opportunities that leverage digital engineering capabilities
  • Supporting migration of current engineering practice into information-centric systems and demonstrating the full usage of those systems.
  • Supporting capability leads in exercising specific digital engineering capabilities from concept through to production implementation
  • Supporting nuclear production workforce in using digital engineering capabilities (PLM, RMS, MBSE, etc.)
  • Supporting requirements gathering and user feedback collection from nuclear production workforce


Digital Engineering Technologist 2 - Engineering Technologist 2 ($96,600 - $158,000)

In addition to the responsibilities of the Digital Engineering Technologist 1, the selected candidate will be responsible for-

  • Supporting system configuration, upgrades, and reviews of change proposals.
