Senior Discipline Engineer – Balance of Plant Mechanical Systems; Remote Eligible, U.S

Job Description Summary

The need for clean energy is greater than ever. At GE Vernova Hitachi (GEVH) we are helping address climate change by designing technology to power our future with reliable, affordable, carbon‑free energy. We are a world leader in advanced reactor technology, fuel and services. Join us as we build our legacy, boldly innovating to provide carbon‑free power to the world.

We are a diverse and dedicated global team who believes in the value of your unique identity, background, and experiences. We are committed to fostering an inclusive culture, where everyone feels empowered to do their best work because they feel accepted, respected, and that they belong. By embracing diverse teams and perspectives, we are better equipped to build a world that works.

Senior Discipline Engineers will be part of a multi‑discipline technical team of dedicated engineers and scientists responsible for the application of GEH new plant technology (e.g., BWRX‑300 Standard Plant) to each prospective customer site, including comprehensive engineering input to the development of new plant proposals, early works agreements and new product offerings.

In this position, the Balance of Plant Mechanical Systems Discipline Engineer will be responsible for determining how standard plant design will meet application‑specific requirements, codes, and standards while incorporating new product modifications.

Leveraging your subject matter expertise in the mechanical engineering discipline, you will focus on providing detailed statements of work for current and subsequent project phases, proposal technical write‑ups, engineering estimates, schedule development and risk assessments in support of site selection, site permitting, and construction/operation licensing milestones.

When necessary, you will coordinate with functional managers within the engineering organization on departures from standard products to produce estimated costs, cycles and risks for new plant opportunities. In addition, you will be responsible for on‑time and on‑budget delivery of early works projects and new product developments, while partnering with internal and external technical teams supporting proposal and/or early works projects.

• You will be part of an engineering team that assures proposals and early works packages are aligned with our standard offering.
• You will identify any site‑specific technical departures related to balance of plant systems (generally understood as systems not contained within the Reactor Building and Control Building), plan the engineering solution to those departures, and work with engineering teams to provide associated costs, cycle times and risks.
• You will establish and maintain effective discipline‑specific design interfaces and document these in deliverables that become part of proposals and/or contracts.
• Establish and maintain strong working relationship with internal discipline engineering teams.
• Interface with external partners, customers, and other applicable country specific regulatory agencies, as required on technical issues.
• Work with proposal and early works teams to build estimates, schedules, and identify risks associated with different opportunities.
• Provide guidance to external partner engineering resources to ensure the quality of deliverables, enable flexibility and improved cost positions.
• Support commercial and marketing opportunities to develop new business opportunities.
• Protect the Intellectual Property rights of GEVH.
• Support GEVH initiatives, corrective action, process improvement and simplification.
• Ensure adherence to GEVH’s standards for nuclear safety and compliance.

• Bachelor of Science in Engineering, Physics, Mathematics or related Science or technical discipline.
• At least 8 years of progressive experience in engineering design.
• At least 4 years of experience in the nuclear industry or equivalent large‑scale new build experience in the power industry.

• The preferred work location for this role is at the GEH Headquarters in Wilmington, NC; but highly qualified (US‑based) remote candidates will be…
