Senior Nuclear Instrumentation & Controls; I&C Engineer

What You’ll Do:

• Lead design, selection, and integration of neutron detectors and signal processing electronics.
• Develop and validate radiation monitoring systems (area, process, stack, and coolant monitors).
• Design I&C architectures and interfaces with digital controllers, PLCs, and distributed I/O systems.
• Perform system modeling, failure analysis, and safety classification per nuclear standards.
• Lead testing, calibration, and qualification activities for safety-critical instrumentation.
• Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams and mentor junior engineers.

• Bachelor’s degree in Nuclear Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or related field.
• 8–12+ years of experience in nuclear I&C, reactor protection, or radiation monitoring systems.
• Hands-on experience with neutron detectors, signal processing electronics, and radiation monitors.
• Strong knowledge of nuclear standards (IEEE, ANSI/ANS) and safety analyses (SIL, FMEA).
• Leadership skills to drive projects, mentor teams, and make high-consequence design decisions.

• Advanced degree (MS/PhD) in Nuclear Engineering or related field.
• Experience with research, HTGR, or sodium-cooled reactor designs.
• Familiarity with digital I&C platforms, PLCs, and data acquisition systems.
• Experience with regulatory documentation, licensing, and safety basis preparation.

This is an opportunity to shape the future of nuclear safety and instrumentation, working at the forefront of advanced reactor technology.
