About The Position

The Senior Electrical Engineer supports development of the SMR-300, Holtec’s next-generation small modular reactor. The role leads cable routing and raceway design for electrical power, I&C, and communication systems, including cable tray and conduit layouts, routing strategies, and multidisciplinary coordination. The engineer ensures designs meet applicable codes, standards, and constructability requirements, using SmartPlant 3D (SP3D) to support project execution from design through construction. The position is located in Camden, New Jersey, with relocation assistance available. Hybrid work may be available for eligible roles where business needs and role requirements allow.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a closely related discipline from an ABET-accredited college or university.
• 10–15 years of progressive experience in electrical engineering design, with significant experience leading cable routing and raceway design; nuclear experience is preferred.
• Demonstrated ability to lead routing and raceway scope, including quality, schedule, and coordination, and provide technical direction to junior engineers.
• Working knowledge of codes, standards, and engineering practices relevant to cable routing and raceway design, including routing separation concepts, cable tray and conduit practices, grounding and bonding concepts, fire protection interfaces, and constructability considerations.
• Proficiency in a 3D plant design environment; experience performing or directing routing development in SP3D, or equivalent experience with the ability to ramp up quickly.
• Strong technical writing and communication skills, with ability to coordinate across multidisciplinary teams and external stakeholders.
• Strong planning, prioritization, and organizational skills, with ability to manage competing priorities and deliver results.

Nice To Haves

• Master’s degree.
• Professional Engineer (PE) license, or ability and interest to obtain one.
• Nuclear project experience and familiarity with regulated design environments and formal design controls, including QA, traceability, and design reviews.
• Experience coordinating routing and penetration interfaces with civil/structural, mechanical, piping/HVAC, I&C, and systems engineering.
• Experience supporting procurement and vendor submittal reviews that affect routing and raceway, including equipment interfaces, installation constraints, and vendor routing limitations.
• Experience supporting construction execution, including walkdowns, constructability reviews, field change support, and installation sequencing coordination.
• Familiarity with related tools and workflows often paired with SP3D delivery, including model review tools, cable schedule databases, and configuration management or document control processes.

Responsibilities

• Lead cable routing design for the SMR-300 plant across electrical power, I&C, and communications systems.
• Develop routing approaches and coordinate design criteria and inputs, including separation, fire-area routing, congestion management, constructability, and maintainability.
• Execute or oversee raceway design, including cable tray and conduit layouts, routing constraints, and installation considerations.
• Provide raceway sizing inputs, including tray fill and conduit sizing inputs, routing quantities, and support needs as required by the project workflow.
• Coordinate and own penetration coordination, including locations, routing paths, and interfaces with civil/structural and other disciplines; ensure routing is consistent with building and structural constraints.
• Produce and review routing layouts, design notes and details, routing reports, model-based outputs, and design change documentation; ensure technical accuracy and quality.
• Perform or oversee cable routing and raceway layout work in SmartPlant 3D (SP3D).
• Lead or participate in model reviews, drive clash and congestion resolution, and ensure routing supports downstream construction and installation sequencing.
• Provide technical direction, mentoring, and quality oversight to entry-level engineers supporting cable routing and raceway deliverables.
• Review and check work products for compliance with project requirements, applicable codes and standards, and internal procedures.
• Support construction and field execution as needed, including responding to RFIs and resolving routing conflicts.

Benefits

• Industry-leading medical, dental, and vision coverage with an employer premium contribution and Day 1 eligibility.
• Hybrid work opportunities for eligible roles, where business needs and role requirements allow.
• 401(k) retirement plan with up to a 5% company match and immediate vesting.
• Paid time off and 11 paid holidays.
• Wellness program with rewards for participation in company-supported health initiatives.
• Commuter benefits for mass transit and commuter parking.
• Company-paid life and AD&D insurance.
• Education assistance for continued education and professional growth.
• Employee Assistance Program and optional benefits, including disability, legal, identity theft, and insurance programs.
• Relocation assistance is available.
