Nuclear Facilities Engineer

Position: Nuclear Facilities Engineer 1/2
** What You Will Do*
* ** This position will be filled at either the Nuclear Facilities Engineer 1 or Nuclear Facilities Engineer 2 level, depending on the skills of the selected candidate. Position will be filled as either a field engineer, project engineer, or systems engineer depending on candidate qualifications.  Additional job responsibilities (outlined below) will be assigned if the candidate is hired at the higher level.*
* The Plutonium Infrastructure Engineering Division (PIE-DO) of Los Alamos National Laboratory develops, maintains, and applies a diverse set of engineering capabilities to provide innovative engineering solutions in support of the Laboratory's Plutonium Facility. PIE-DO is responsible for implementing the Conduct of Engineering (COE) program on Division projects. The program include processes, standards, training, and qualifications that are generally applicable throughout the life cycle of a facility.

They exist to effectively manage risks and satisfy customer requirements in a safe, secure, cost effective, and environmentally responsible manner. The selected candidate will support our Install team.

** Nuclear Facilities Engineer 1 $ 96,600-$158,000*
* Nuclear Facilities Engineer 1 is responsible for ensuring that the technical aspects of construction and maintenance projects are executed in full conformance with the Approved Project Documents by monitoring facility maintenance and construction activities. This is accomplished by providing input during scoping, design, execution, and project closeout to ensure baseline documents are accurate, design documents are adhered to, and as-built configurations are verified.

Nuclear facility engineers expedite project execution by identifying issues, coordinating technical solutions, and providing timely guidance to the constructor through approved procedures. The level 1 Nuclear Facilities Engineer will require a basic understanding of field engineering principles and have an aptitude to apply these principles throughout the execution of the job. The selected candidate will support our Install Engineering team.

** Nuclear Facilities Engineer 2  $106,400-$176,000*
* In addition to what was outlined at the lower level, the level 2 Nuclear Facilities Engineer will require a demonstrated understanding of Engineering principles and have applied these principles on the job.
