Job Description
We have an opening for a Superblock Electrical Engineer to play a key role in advancing next‑generation weapons technologies in direct support of the nation’s strategic deterrent. In this position, you will help mature critical technologies driving the design, installation, and integration of equipment and systems within nuclear facilities, with a focus on ensuring safe, robust, and compliant operation. You will join our Superblock Capabilities team working on groundbreaking projects at the intersection of facility engineering and nuclear weapon program needs.
Your work will emphasize electrical design for equipment installation, power distribution, and associated control and monitoring systems, including the development of design packages, calculations, and documentation that support construction, startup, and operations. Our projects span the full lifecycle, from requirements development and conceptual layouts through detailed design, installation, commissioning, and sustainment.
This position requires full‑time on‑site presence. It will be filled at either level based on knowledge and related experience. Additional job responsibilities (outlined below) will be assigned if hired at the higher level.
Responsibilities- Develop electrical designs and design packages for the integration of programmatic equipment and systems within nuclear facilities, including power distribution, control, and monitoring interfaces.
- Collaborate with programmatic and facility stakeholders to derive engineering requirements, capture equipment power needs, and translate them into conceptual and detailed electrical designs.
- Perform supporting engineering analyses and calculations, including load studies, voltage drop, protective device coordination, and other assessments needed to ensure safe and reliable integration with existing utilities.
- Coordinate with the Building Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) and facility engineering staff to ensure designs meet laboratory requirements, the National Electrical Code (NEC), and other applicable codes, standards, and institutional requirements.
- Support and participate in the detailed design process, including development of drawings, specifications, and bills of material, and coordinate with fabrication and installation teams.
- Review and evaluate vendor and fabrication submittals to verify technical compliance and ensure that procured equipment can be integrated with existing facility infrastructure and power sources.
- Participate in field walkdowns, construction, installation, and startup activities to verify that electrical equipment and systems are installed and integrated in accordance with design intent and applicable requirements.
- Provide engineering support for commissioning and programmatic testing by ensuring appropriate power and control interfaces are available to electronic components, diagnostics, and other test equipment.
- Perform other duties as assigned.
Job Responsibilities (SES.
3 Level)
- Utilize advanced engineering knowledge and apply advanced technical concepts and techniques, along with relevant professional experience, to resolve complex technical and programmatic issues related to the integration of electrical equipment and systems in nuclear facilities.
- Exercise independent judgment in determining methods, techniques, and evaluation criteria for electrical analyses, design decisions, and resolution of integration challenges.
- Guide the completion of engineering testing, startup, and commissioning activities, perform data analysis, and assist in preparing technical reports, documentation, and presentations.
- Ability to secure and maintain a U.S. DOE Q‑level security clearance which requires U.S. citizenship.
- Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering or a closely related technical field, or the equivalent combination of education and related experience.
- Comprehensive knowledge of facility or industrial electrical systems and engineering drawings, including the ability to interpret one‑line diagrams, panel schedules, and equipment connection details.
- Comprehensive knowledge of National Electrical Code (NEC) principles and their…
