Job Details
PERM/FTE Onsite Nuclear Medicine Safety Analysis Engineer
TYPE: Perm/Full Time Employee
LOCATION: Janesville, WI
ON-SITE
RELOCATION ASSISTANCE PROVIDED
No Third Party Companies/Candidates will be considered
General Purpose of the job:
The purpose of the position is to provide the development and application of nuclear safety analysis methodologies for safe and effective operations of the subcritical fission processes and accelerator technology for the production of medical isotopes.
This work includes transient and accident analysis, dose analysis, nuclear criticality safety analysis, and integrated safety analysis. This role is expected to continue through the operational phase of the facility.
Duties and Responsibilities:
Specific duties and responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
- Perform system analyses of anticipated transients and postulated accidents to demonstrate that safety and licensing requirements are satisfied
- Perform radiological and chemical dose calculations for normal and accidental releases
- Support of nuclear criticality safety evaluations and analysis, including development and evaluation of computer models
- Support Integrated Safety Analysis (ISA) activities including hazard evaluations (e.g., HAZOP, FMEA), process hazard analyses (PHA), and accident sequence development.
- Systems analysis to include thermal hydraulics, modeling, heat transfer, transient kinetics, two-phase flow, system protection characteristics, and plant control system functions
- Perform hand calculations using first principles to support and validate analysis results
- Perform code benchmarking and validation analyses to support code qualification and methodology development
- Contribute to licensing documents for NRC review and approval that describe how the suite of nuclear analysis codes will be applied along with inputs, models, and correlations to establish the design bases
Requirements:
- B.S. degree in Nuclear Engineering or related discipline from an accredited institution at a minimum
- Five (5) years of experience in nuclear safety analysis
- Experience using MCNP and/or SCALE nuclear analysis codes
- Demonstrated technical writing skills.
- Familiarity with nuclear engineering design, operations, regulatory requirements, and industry precedents.
- Basic knowledge of NRC Rules, Regulations, Organization, Processes, Procedures, Instructions, Inspections, Enforcement, and understanding of relevant portions of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations
- Strong problem-solving and analytical skills
