Come join a growing multidisciplinary team of designers and engineers designing the next generation nuclear power plant. The ideal PSA Engineer will have experience with interacting with the NRC, OR  with extensive RELAP/MELCOR/MAAP modeling experience.

The PSA Engineer is responsible for supporting internal and external events probabilistic safety analysis evaluations of the power plant at its early design stage. The PSA Engineer will work alongside engineers, designers, and analysts in a dynamic development environment. The PSA Engineer participates in the daily activities of the multinational PSA team, ensuring continued technical communication/information exchange between various PSA task leaders during the development of internal and external events PSA for the  power plant in its design phase. The PSA Engineer is experienced in event tree and fault tree modeling methods and actively participates in requirements development, detailed development, engineering analysis and technical documentation. 

This position is located in either Camden, NJ, Covert MI or Jupiter, FL or Pittburgh, PA.  Top competitive salaries, great benefits and relocation assistance available. 

 Will also have experience with the CAFTA suite of computer codes and will be capable of performing system level and plant level quantification, uncertainty analysis, and sensitivity analysis.   Experience with cut set reviews, Internal Flood PSA development, Low Power and Shutdown PSA development, Fire PSA development, Seismic Margins analysis, or High Winds analysis is highly desirable. The Engineer will be part of a team executing a U.S. Government cost-shared development program requiring efficient completion of engineering assignments.

Specific Areas of Responsibility:
  • Execute key PSA activities as a member of the multinational PSA team, including engineering analyses and technical documentation
  • Gain a deep understanding of the SMR-300 concept design, its safety features and design functions of the plant's Systems, Structures, and Components (SSC)
  • Interact with team members from other disciplines and vendors to help identify and recommend potential SMR-300 design and operational improvements using PSA risk insights
  • Provide risk analysis perspective to SMR-300 system designers
  • Prepare and review design deliverables and presentations
  • Develop and implement PSA methodologies for internal and external events.
  • Performing system level and plant level quantification, uncertainty analysis, and sensitivity analysis
  • Support development of engineering and licensing documentation
  • Applicants should be prepared to play an active role in a project-driven and highly integrated engineering team.
