Duration

36 months.

We are seeking a P&C Switchyard Engineer (Subject Matter Expert) for a Nuclear Electrical Design Team. The primary role is to serve as electrical SME on transmission lead projects in high‑voltage (230 kV and 525 kV) nuclear switchyards. The position may also support plant projects such as transformer replacements and medium/low‑voltage distribution system modifications.

• Develop nuclear design changes and perform design verifications per the Standard Design Process (IP‑ENG‑001).
• Conduct quality and owner‑acceptance reviews of vendor‑developed design deliverables, ensuring technical accuracy, constructability, safety, and compliance with project requirements and applicable standards.
• Develop and review electrical calculations in accordance with nuclear procedures and processes.
• Develop equipment specifications and procurement documentation; participate in equipment evaluation, selection, and technical alignment with project needs.
• Work independently and collaboratively across multidisciplinary teams to execute projects, resolve complex technical challenges, and ensure compliance with specifications, permits, and regulatory requirements.
• Provide technical support during construction, commissioning, and testing activities, including resolution of field issues and design modifications.
• Apply and interpret NRC, IEEE, NESC, and NERC standards and utility requirements throughout design development, reviews, and construction support.

• 15+ years of experience in P&C design, with discipline experience as a subject‑matter expert.
• Placement of candidates with fewer years may be considered at the Lead Engineer or Senior Engineer level based on experience.
• Strong knowledge of high‑voltage transmission and nuclear switchyard engineering.
• Ability to work with limited supervision, demonstrating advanced skills and independence.

A hybrid or in‑office work setup is preferred to foster collaboration and mentorship. Limited overtime (typically 4 × 12‑hour shifts) may be required to support nuclear refueling outages and project implementation.

Manager is seeking an Electrical Engineer with transmission and nuclear switchyard experience who can develop Engineering Change packages from transmission designs, initially with senior guidance and eventually manage projects independently.
