Dynamic physics based 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 through 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 through 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.
Support LEAN, continuous process improvement, and cost-out programs.
Provide leadership and mentoring in a team environment to deliver with integrity, safety and security, quality, then output – Champion nuclear culture.
