Instrumentation & Controls Engineer 2 - Nuclear

Description

Nuclear Power is a carbon-free energy source.  Our nuclear power generation clients are digitizing their existing power plants and building new nuclear power plants, small modular reactors (SMR) due to the increasing demand for electric power.  This is expanding our work in the Instrumentation and Controls Engineering group.  Due to this influx of work, Sargent & Lundy has a need for additional I&C Engineers.  Our new offices at 2 North Central Ave., Phoenix are more centrally located.

 

 

Responsibilities:

 We offer you the opportunity to utilize and expand your academic background in engineering by digitizing nuclear power plants:

  • You will work with electronic process sensors, digital controllers, network topology, touchscreen displays, pumps, valves, heat exchangers, steam turbines and reactors.
  • You will prepare specifications for the procurement of instrumentation and controls equipment as well as engineering calculations.
  • Through mentoring, classroom-style technical sessions, and on-the-job training, you will increase your knowledge and skills in your engineering discipline.
  • You will also have the opportunity to travel to client and vendor offices for design reviews and to plant site locations for project coordination and field verification of designs. 

This position is based on a hybrid work schedule and will require in-office work 3 days per week.

Qualifications

We do not sponsor employees for work authorization in the U.S. for this position.

 

Essential Skills:

  • A BS degree in Electrical, Mechanical, or Chemical Engineering (from an ABET accredited program) with a strong academic background and coursework in analog and digital control systems is required
  • 1 year of experience in the nuclear power industry or a MS degree in Electrical, Mechanical, or Chemical Engineering (from an ABET accredited program)
  • Coursework in mechatronics is desired, but not required
