AUKUS Engineer 1 -- Design Eng -- Process
About The Position
Nuclear Fuel Services (NFS), a division of BWX Technologies, is hiring an AUKUS Engineer 1 for onsite work in Erwin, Tennessee. The position performs routine engineering assignments using standard engineering techniques, procedures, and criteria under close supervision and guidance from a manager or experienced engineer. Assignments are intended to develop professional work knowledge and abilities; managers screen unusual or difficult problems and select approaches for non-routine work. The engineer evaluates situations and applies standard techniques, making minor modifications as needed. Work generally has clear objectives, a limited number of possibilities to investigate, and relatively few complex features with established precedents. Work is reviewed for sound judgment and compliance with technical contract requirements and Division policies and procedures. The role prepares written reports, drawings and sketches, and technical documents; designs and conducts tests or experiments; evaluates and correlates data; and organizes and plans work. The engineer applies knowledge of manufacturing technology, technical process specifications, engineering and quality-control procedures, department goals, customer needs, and contract requirements. The role also develops the ability to interpret technical specifications, conduct meetings, work with customers, vendors, and other departments, and prepare time and cost estimates. The position requires a bachelor’s degree in Engineering, with no prior experience required, effective written and verbal communication of complex technical information, the ability to work independently and on a multifunctional team, and the ability to obtain and maintain a DOE security clearance. BWXT describes its offer as including a competitive salary and benefits package, flexible schedules and paid time off, professional development and continuing-education opportunities, mentorship, and continuous learning and training. The stated base salary range is $70,000–$103,000 per year, with compensation dependent on job-related and market factors; an annual cash incentive may also be included.
