System Electrical Engineer

What You Will Do

The Engineering Services Division of Los Alamos National Laboratory develops, maintains, and applies a diverse set of engineering capabilities to provide innovative engineering solutions that enable the Laboratory's scientific and national security mission. This position is within the Engineering Services Division Office (ES-DO). ES Groups implement the Conduct of Engineering (COE) program at Los Alamos National Laboratory in support of systems, structure and component modifications and new installations, as well as supporting existing systems, modifications, and customers occupying the facilities.

As a System Electrical Engineer you will support the Weapons Facilities Operations (WFO) portfolio consisting of nuclear, accelerator and non-nuclear facilities, spanning half of the laboratory s footprint. As a facilities system engineer in this area, you will directly support facilities with a direct impact on LANL s stockpile stewardship mission. Daily tasks include but are not limited to responding to emerging facility issues, configuration management including facility technical baseline management, electrical/pressure safety support, reviewing designs for facility modification, and providing system health reporting.

This position will be filled at either the Nuclear Facilities Engineer 3/4 level, depending on the skills and experience of the selected candidate. Additional job responsibilities (outlined below) will be assigned if the candidate is hired at the higher level.

As a System Engineer with Engineering Services, you will serve as the owner s representative for engineering for your assigned facilities. You will interface with design teams, maintenance, and operations, shaping LANL s facilities and infrastructure to serve the needs of a growing and changing portfolio.
