  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
  • Must be able to pass a pre-employment drug screen and background check.
  • Must be able to obtain a Department of Energy badge for site access.

Preferred Qualifications :

  • Professional engineering registration.
  • Experience in the design of fluid systems for DOE or commercial nuclear facilities.

Technical Screening Questions :

  • Can you describe a complex mechanical system design project you led? What were the key challenges, and how did you address them?
  • How do you ensure compliance with nuclear safety and environmental regulations during the design process?
  • What experience do you have with developing P&IDs and equipment specifications for high-risk or heavily regulated environments?
  • Describe your experience with quality assurance programs. Which standards are you most familiar with, and how have you implemented them in past projects?
  • How do you manage cross-disciplinary coordination in a project setting to ensure that mechanical designs integrate well with other systems?
  • Explain a scenario where you had to troubleshoot a significant issue during the commissioning phase of a project. What steps did you take to resolve it?
  • What software tools do you use for mechanical design and analysis, and how proficient are you with them?
  • Have you ever managed a project where you had to adapt the design due to unexpected changes or challenges? How did you handle it?
