Mid-Level Power Uprate Engineer

Overview

ENERCON is seeking a Mid-Level Power Uprate Analysis Engineer to join our growing team of nuclear professionals. In this role, you’ll contribute to the evaluation and implementation of power uprates at nuclear facilities, helping to increase reactor output safely and efficiently. You’ll work alongside experienced engineers, gaining exposure to a wide range of technical challenges and project scopes. This is an exceptional opportunity for engineers who aspire to grow into advanced technical and leadership roles.

Power uprates span the entire plant and typically involve major upgrades such as replacing large pump motors, generators, high-pressure turbines, and feedwater heaters. As such, this role provides a comprehensive understanding of plant systems and their interdependencies.

We’re committed to supporting your career development—whether you’re building toward technical specialization, project leadership, or future management roles, we provide the tools and mentorship to help you succeed. This role offers a unique opportunity to work alongside senior subject matter experts (SMEs), receive dedicated mentorship, and be groomed as a future power uprate specialist. Over time, these individuals will play a key role in training others and leading studies and follow-up modifications whatever career path they choose.

We’re Looking For Engineers With a Solid Foundation In Nuclear Engineering And a Desire To Grow Into a Subject Matter Expert. We Encourage You To Explore This Exciting Opportunity And Become Part Of Our Innovative And Impactful Team—where Your Work Will Help Bring More Nuclear Power To The Market. This Position Offers Flexibility With Opportunities In:

• Birmingham, AL
