As a Systems Designer/Engineer - Nuclear you areresponsible for learning technical aspects of a project and overseeing systems engineering activities specific to the project.

You will workwith the customer, ATS project manager,andtheATS design, assembly, and softwareteamsto design the solutions that meet the customer's requirements.

You will get the opportunity todevelop intoa technical leader bytaking on the following 3 roles:1) understanding the customer'stechnology andprocessandbecoming the subject matter expert in the equipment/system,2) providing project technical clarity by defining system requirementsandvalidating system capability,and3) being the technical leader on the system from cradle tolaunch, guiding the design team in ensuring project technical requirements are met.

You will support technical execution of the project,contribute torisk mitigation, anddriveimprovements in quality, cost, and delivery.

Subject Matter Expertise

• Learn the customer process and become the local expert in it, to support the design, integration, and verification of the machines/tools/systems.
