Nuclear Facilities Engineer ; Electrical, Mechanical, System, Civil, Strucural and Fire Prot

What You Will Do

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

Put your engineering talents to good use by joining our world‑class engineering team in the Plutonium Facilities Engineering Division (PFE‑DO) at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). We are looking for exceptional engineers to join our organization. Our workforce thrives in an environment that values creativity and problem solving, where every idea and perspective is welcomed. This is your chance to make a real difference while working on important systems directly impacting national security.

Within this job, successful candidates will have the opportunity to support LANL's mission by serving as the subject matter expert (SME) for efficiently implementing nuclear facility engineering regulatory requirements including the Nuclear Safety Management rule, Department of Energy (DOE) Orders, American Nuclear Society Standards, national consensus codes and standards, recognized quality standards, LANL requirements, and federal, state, and local regulations. Nuclear facility engineers perform system engineering, design engineering, project engineering, safety basis and nuclear criticality functions y define requirements for nuclear facilities, nuclear safety systems, nuclear operations equipment, nuclear operations procedures, nuclear test and acceptance requirements and nuclear quality requirements.

Additionally, the nuclear facility engineers integrate with programmatic, operations, maintenance, document control, and project management personnel to ensure nuclear facility requirements are met in a way that allows accomplishment of LANL mission. The selected canadate will identify and/or lead activities within a nuclear facility engineering discipline.

In addition to what was outlined at the lower level, at this level the successful candidate will apply a broad and diverse knowledge of nuclear facility engineering principles and practices in the preparation of nuclear facility engineering deliverables. They will utilize nuclear engineering technology to accomplish work and continuously improve work processes to meet customer needs.
