HII supports the Department of Energy’s national security mission through the management and operation of its sites, as well as the safe cleanup of legacy waste across the country. HII meets clients’ toughest nuclear and environmental challenges.

HII Mission Technologies is seeking a Power CAD Engineer to join our team. In this role, you'll be instrumental in designing and analyzing power systems for various defense and government projects.
