RESPONSIBILITIES:
Kforce has a client in Juno Beach, FL that is seeking a highly experienced Electrical or Instrumentation & Controls (I&C) Engineer with extensive nuclear power plant experience to lead complex capital projects and modernization initiatives. This role is critical for our expanding portfolio of large-scale electrical and I&C upgrade projects, including traditional analog system replacements, digital control system implementations, and plant modernization efforts.
Key Responsibilities:
* Lead electrical and I&C capital projects, including power system upgrades, control system modernizations, legacy equipment replacements, and digital system implementations
* Design and implement electrical and I&C system modifications, including safety-related upgrades, non-safety system enhancements, and plant control system integrations
* Manage complex system modifications across multiple vendors, disciplines, and legacy/modern system interfaces while maintaining nuclear safety and regulatory compliance
* Coordinate project execution involving operations, engineering, vendors, and regulatory bodies, serving as single point of contact for technical issues on large capital projects
* Oversee vendor technical deliverables for electrical and I&C systems, ensuring design integrity, testing protocols, and seamless integration with existing plant systems
* Apply NEI Standard Design Process and nuclear configuration management to ensure compliant electrical and I&C system modifications
* Provide technical oversight on cybersecurity implementation for digital systems, network segmentation, and regulatory compliance as applicable
* Mentor engineering teams on nuclear electrical/I&C principles, modern digital technologies, and nuclear design change processes
REQUIREMENTS:
* Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, I&C Engineering, or related discipline
* Professional Engineering (PE) license strongly preferred
* 8+ years of nuclear power plant experience with at least 6 years in nuclear power plant design and operations
* Proven experience leading large capital projects ($5M+) involving multiple stakeholders, vendors, and regulatory interfaces
* Strong understanding of nuclear electrical and I&C systems, including power distribution, control systems, instrumentation, and protection systems
* Knowledge of NEI Standard Design Process and nuclear design change control
* Experience with modern digital platforms (e.g., DCS, PLC systems, digital controllers) strongly preferred
* Excellent technical leadership, communication, and stakeholder coordination skills
Preferred Qualifications:
* Experience with digital system upgrades and modern nuclear I&C platforms
* Background in electrical power systems, switchgear, motor control centers, and plant electrical distribution
* Familiarity with plant automation systems, SCADA, HMI design, and digital control technologies
* Knowledge of nuclear cybersecurity requirements for digital assets and control systems
* Experience with regulatory submissions for electrical/I&C modifications (license amendments, 50.59 evaluations)
* Project management certification or equivalent project leadership experience in nuclear environment
