Senior Engineer - Nuclear Simulation Assisted Engineering (remote)

Job Description Summary

Senior Engineer - Simulation Assisted Engineering (SAE) works within the Plant Integration Engineering team by enabling LEAN integrated plant design (IPD) using modern digital engineering tools and techniques. SAE is a collaborative, cross-disciplinary, systems engineering approach to complex IPD, analysis, and optimization. SAE is based on the use of a modern, physics and mathematics, digital engineering modeling and simulation software toolkit. Focus is on technical risk, engineering labor, and schedule duration reduction during first of a kind (FOAK) plant design.

Job Description

Essential Responsibilities:

• Collaborate in cross-functional environment of; Systems, Instrumentation & Controls, and Human Factors Engineering to successful deployment, implementation, and lifecycle stewardship of the multi-organization and multi-geographic SAE environment.
• Assist in maintaining a singular master plant simulation model in SAE environment while ensuring requirements and configuration management are updated and baselined as necessary.
• Develop and edit system models in an integrated simulation environment.
• Collaborate with simulation software supplier and customer to prepare plans, procedures, and reports then perform factory acceptance test (FAT) and site acceptance test (SAT) for simulator, Discrepancy Reports (DR), enhancement requests, technical oversight issues, and training needs.
• P. Eng Seal Applicable Simulator Documents.
  
  

Basic Qualifications

• Bachelor of Science in Engineering, Electrical, Mechanical, Nuclear, Systems, or Physics, Chemistry, or equivalent 4 year technical degree.
• 8 years of experience in simulation using modern physics, mathematics, and software based modeling tools for design, analysis, or training involving; nuclear reactor thermal hydraulics, plant process fluidic and mechanical, electrical, instrumentation, control, monitoring systems.
• P. Eng designation in Ontario
  
  

Desired Qualifications

• Master of Science in Engineering, Electrical, Mechanical, Nuclear, Systems, or Physics, Chemistry.
• Experience developing high fidelity engineering simulator or FSS integrated with a DCS platform either via virtual controller or emulation.
