Structural Engineer 1​/2 (Nuclear Facilities Engineer 1​/2

Position: Structural Engineer 1/2 (Nuclear Facilities Engineer 1/2)
** What You Will Do*
* ** This position will be filled at either the Nuclear Facilities Engineer 1 or 2 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.*
* The Plutonium Facilities Engineering Division (PFE-DO) and Design Engineering (PFE-DE) at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) are seeking a Structural Engineer.  Put your engineering talents to good use by joining our world-class Design Engineering group!  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 developing designs that directly impact national security.

** Nuclear Facilities Engineer 1 $ 96,600 - $158,000*
* Within this job, successful candidates will have to opportunity to support the Laboratory's mission by producing designs that are renovating rooms, modifying buildings and structural members, and developing new structures within and around the plutonium facility. Often within this role, engineers will be installing equipment on housekeeping pads or skids with the use of post-installed anchors. Structural engineers working for the plutonium facility will have the opportunity to design crane girders and crane support structures, canopies, equipment support stands, piping/conduit supports, wall/floor/ceiling penetrations, and concrete slabs.

** Nuclear Facilities Engineer 2 $ 106,400 - $176,000*
* Structural Engineers will work alongside junior engineers (e.g., fire protection, structural, mechanical, and electrical) and other senior engineers in team settings to complete collaborative full-system design solutions through mentoring, calculations, and leadership.
