EIT certification is preferred.

PE registration will be considered when determining level and external title.

2. LEVEL REQUIREMENTS

Engineer II:

Minimum two years of professional electrical design engineering experience.

Performs defined assignments under technical direction.

Prepares assigned portions of calculations, evaluations, drawings, specifications, and design packages.

Engineer III with PE:

Minimum four years of professional electrical design engineering experience.

Engineer III without PE:

Six to ten years of professional electrical design engineering experience.

Engineer IV with PE:

Minimum seven years of professional electrical design engineering experience.

Engineer IV without PE:

Ten to fifteen years of professional electrical design engineering experience.

Engineer III-IV Expectations:

Develops complete calculations, evaluations, and design documents with the independence expected at the assigned level.

Independently manages assigned engineering work and may lead appropriately sized assignments.

Final level will be based on education, licensure, direct electrical design experience, technical responsibility, independence, and ownership of engineering deliverables. Zachry Nuclear Engineering will determine the final level and external title following resume review and interview.

3. QUALIFYING ELECTRICAL EXPERIENCE

Candidates must have professional electrical design engineering experience that includes one or more of the following:

Electrical calculations, technical evaluations, specifications, drawings, or design criteria

Power distribution, transformers, switchgear, MCCs, breakers, motors, generators, or cables

Cable or equipment sizing, load flow, voltage drop, short-circuit, grounding, or protection-and-coordination studies

Single-line diagrams, wiring diagrams, schematics, lighting, grounding, or raceway design

Design changes, modification packages, field walkdowns, testing, installation, or implementation support

Experience limited to electrician or tech work, maintenance, construction, installation, operations, project management, or commissioning does not qualify unless the candidate also performed professional electrical design engineering.

4. NUCLEAR EXPERIENCE

Commercial nuclear experience is strongly preferred, particularly at an operating nuclear power plant.

Preferred experience includes plant modifications, engineering changes, Standard Design Process activities, field walkdowns, implementation, or outage support.

Candidates without commercial nuclear experience must have directly transferable electrical design and modification experience in power generation, DOE, chemical, petrochemical, or another regulated industrial facility.

5. WORK AUTHORIZATION AND NUCLEAR ACCESS

Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without current or future employment sponsorship.

Must be able to obtain and maintain required nuclear-site access, including unescorted access when applicable.

Must complete required background screening, drug screening, onboarding, training, and site-access activities.

Final access authorization is determined by the applicable nuclear facility.

Some assignments may involve access to information or technology controlled under U.S. export-control laws. Eligibility will be considered when applicable.
