Job Description Summary

As the inaugural Systems Technical Engineering Leader for our Nuclear Controls Services business, you will serve as the technical architect and orchestrator for our most critical integrated solutions. You will sit at the intersection of our hardware and software portfolios—bridging MKVIe platform, hydraulic steam turbine controls, generator electrical systems, HMI/Cybersecurity, and plant instrumentation systems. Your mandate is to ensure that disparate controls disciplines coalesce into a singular, high-quality, and reliable Nuclear integrated system.

Job Description

Key Focus Areas:

• Architectural Governance: Enforce integrated technical standards and design patterns, ensuring consistency across all project-level controls strategies.
• Systemic Integrity Oversight: Provide an overarching technical safety lens. While Project Engineers (PEs) manage individual delivery, you ensure that technical safety and reliability margins remain uncompromised throughout the lifecycle of complex, multi-discipline integrations.
• Complexity Management: Act as a technical authority for "high-risk/high-complexity" integration scenarios that require navigation beyond standard procedures.
• Strategic Interface & Requirements: Own the "glue" between requirements. Define how overlapping value streams interact to ensure that technical dependencies are transparent, traceable, and validated for quality.
• Technical Enablement: Audit verification / validation (V&V) frameworks and mentor technical leads to foster a culture of rigorous, unified systems engineering.

Roles and Responsibilities:

• Define System Standards: Establish an integration framework for control system requirements, architecture, and V&V methodologies for the Nuclear fleet.
• Strategic Technical Advisory: Provide high-level guidance during critical project phases (ITO, EKO, Factory Customer Witness, and Site Commissioning), specifically targeting the resolution of cross-functional design gaps.
• Drive Design Cohesion: Partner with Value Stream owners to dissolve silos between Turbine, Mechanical, Generator, Electrical, HMI/Cyber and distributed plant controls domains.
  Align with Engineering Design Packaging team to deliver integrated solutions that interface well to customer systems
• Regulatory & Safety Advocacy: Represent the business as an expert regarding nuclear safety-critical design standards; influence product roadmaps to ensure compliance with the evolving global regulatory landscape.
• Influence-Based Leadership: Mentor and develop the engineering pipeline. Champion a "System-Level Mindset," ensuring every engineer understands their contribution to the broader nuclear plant operational profile.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Nuclear, or Computer Engineering.
• 10+ years of technical leadership experience within the nuclear power generation industry.
• Expert-level command of Instrumentation & Control (I&C) systems within highly regulated, safety-critical environments.
• Demonstrated experience defining technical requirements, design patterns, and safety frameworks within a complex, matrixed engineering organization.

Desired Characteristics:

• Influence without Authority: Exceptional ability to align cross-functional technical teams toward a common objective without direct line authority over project execution.
• Systems Integration Fluency: Deep understanding of the interplay between I&C platforms, electrical power systems, and Nuclear Balance-of-Plant (BOP) operations.
• Architectural Defense: Proven ability to lead high-stakes technical reviews and successfully defend complex system architectures to internal stakeholders and external regulators.
• Strategic Clarity: A gift for distilling multi-layered, system-level technical challenges into actionable, executable strategies.
• Modern Methodology: Practical experience with Agile methodologies as applied to complex, large-scale control system development.

This role requires access to U.S. export-controlled information. If applicable, final offers will be contingent on ability to obtain authorization for access to U.S. export-controlled information from the U.S. Government.
