Job Description

Shape the future of nuclear inspection

Step into a senior role on our Inspection Technology team and help build the remote delivery systems that make non-destructive examination possible across the commercial nuclear market.

Where you'll work

You will report to the Manager of Inspection Technology and be based at our Waltz Mill facility in Madison, PA. This is a mobile, hybrid position (#LI-Hybrid) with an expectation of being on site 2-3 days per week.

A day in the life

You start by sketching a new mechanism for a multi-axis scanner, capture design-by-rule calculations by hand, and translate your work into CAD to generate detailed drawings. After a quick sync with vendors and internal partners, you refine functional and design specifications and update cost estimates. You lead a design review in the afternoon, finalize manufacturing drawings, and walk the floor to follow fabrication and assembly. You wrap up by writing revisions to procedures, qualifying new tooling, and preparing to support first field implementation at a nuclear plant site.

What you'll do

  • Own project engineering activities to meet customer commitments.
  • Prepare design reports, functional/design specifications, and technical documentation.
  • Perform hand calculations and apply design-by-rule formulae to validate designs.
  • Drive the full design lifecycle: cost estimating; functional/design specifications; detailed design with supporting calculations; tooling concepts; design reviews; final manufacturing drawings; oversight of fabrication and assembly; tooling qualification; personnel training; and first field implementation of new tooling.
  • Create and revise procedures and drawings for design and field activities.
  • Troubleshoot, repair, and functionally test electromechanical equipment.
  • Become proficient with software used to perform inspection activities at nuclear plant sites.
  • Collaborate frequently with vendors and internal engineering partners to gather information and move work forward.
  • Continuously identify process improvements and help implement them.
  • Support field implementation and troubleshooting of inspection equipment at nuclear plant sites.

What you bring

  • Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering.
  • 3+ years of experience.
  • Experience with nuclear power plants and knowledge of nuclear industry requirements (desirable).
  • Familiarity with non-destructive examination techniques (desirable).
  • Knowledge of robotics, multi-axis scanners, and control systems.

Additional proficiencies we value

  • Bachelor's Degree
  • Professional Engineer (PE) License
  • Project Management
  • Product Design Experience

Tools you'll use

  • CAD Software
