Mechanical Designer 3 - Nuclear Power
About The Position
The Mechanical Designer 3 develops mechanical design deliverables for nuclear power projects as part of multidisciplinary engineering and design teams. Under the direction of the Mechanical Project Lead, the role produces general arrangement, piping isometric, pipe support, and mechanical equipment layout drawings in a 3-D model, using Hexagon SmartPlant S3D and the SPF database. The position has a hybrid work schedule, with time spent both in the office and working remotely from home. The designer coordinates detailed design phases for integrated mechanical models, resolves model clashes and discrepancies, and works with engineering, design, and SmartPlant administration teams to help ensure complete, accurate, and timely deliverables. The role also includes independently planning and executing mechanical design work and mentoring less experienced drafters and designers.
