About The Position

VC Summer Nuclear Station is seeking an Electrical Engineer (Engineer to Staff-level, based on experience) to support the design, analysis, and modification of electrical systems within a nuclear power generating station. Electrical Engineers are responsible for plant electrical distribution systems, instrumentation and control interfaces, protective relaying, and the performance and reliability of safety-related and balance-of-plant electrical equipment. Responsibilities also include maintaining design basis documentation and supporting plant licensing and regulatory compliance. This position will be filled at a level commensurate with the selected candidate’s education, experience, and demonstrated technical expertise. This role is Mid level to Expert level in all conventional aspects of the subject matter in the engineering series provides engineering support in designated company area, or specific engineering discipline. Performs and/or reviews engineering calculations, analysis, research and design. Provides cost analysis as needed and develops recommendation based on calculations (e.g. cost for equipment upgrade for management review. Distinguished from the Associate Engineer by increased complexity in application of engineering skills required. Under direction of supervisor or work leader, exercises independence in evaluating, selecting and applying standard or well defined engineering techniques, procedures and criteria. Uses independent judgment in prioritizing and making moderately complex adaptations and modifications. Assignments have clear and specified objectives and require investigation of a limited number of variables.Perform other duties as requested or assigned. May serve as a member of the Emergency Response Organization (ERO), responding to plant ERO activities in 30-60 minutes.
