Overview

We are seeking a Data Engineer who will focus on engineering design, installation, and troubleshooting associated with the rapidly growing field of stable isotope enrichment. This position resides in the Plasma Enrichment Deployment and Engineering Group in the Plasma Enrichment Science and Engineering Section, Enrichment Science and Engineering Division, Isotope Science and Engineering Directorate, at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL).

The Enrichment Science and Engineering Division serves the nation in two critical areas : advancing enrichment technologies and exploring stable isotope production and applications. The division uses an elite staff of scientists, engineers, and technicians with world-leading capabilities of Oak Ridge National Laboratory to deliver groundbreaking advancements with a variety of applications, from national security to life-saving medical treatments. ESED is the national steward for the research, development, and demonstration of enrichment technologies. ORNL is a recognized leader in centrifuge and electromagnetic enrichment technology. We are the stewards and dispensary of the nation's stable isotope inventory and have a legacy dating to the late 1940s. This division integrates the full enrichment process from chemical synthesis of feed materials through fabrication of the custom physical forms needed to support the user communities.

You will work closely with a focused group of scientists, technicians, and engineers on ambitious, fast paced technical projects in support of the DOE Isotope Program. This has been a quickly expanding program at ORNL and offers significant opportunities for professional growth. The team demonstrates a collective excitement for the important work being accomplished and values creative solutions to developing technology and processes to solve the latest challenges. Successful development and deployment of isotope separation technologies requires an acute attention to detail and continued consideration of personnel and equipment safety.
