Principal Power Uprate Analysis Engineer
Join Enercon Services, Inc. to apply for the Principal Power Uprate Analysis Engineer role. The position is essential to advancing nuclear energy solutions across the country.
OverviewIn this leadership-level position, you’ll leverage your expertise to guide complex engineering projects, mentor junior staff, and contribute to the safe and efficient implementation of power uprates at nuclear facilities. We invest in our people—whether your career path leads toward technical mastery, project leadership, or people management, we provide the resources and support to help you grow.
We’re looking for engineers who bring a combination of technical depth, leadership capability, and a passion for nuclear innovation. Ideal candidates will have prior experience supporting power uprate projects and a strong foundation in nuclear systems and plant operations.
Responsibilities- Act as a subject matter expert in power uprate evaluations and implementation, contributing to increasing reactor output while maintaining safety and regulatory compliance.
- Lead high-impact projects that require deep knowledge of nuclear systems engineering, plant design analysis, and design modifications.
- Pass on your expertise and shape the next generation of nuclear professionals through mentorship and knowledge sharing.
- Provide strategic impact by advancing U.S. clean energy goals through power uprate initiatives.
- Collaborate with senior stakeholders, regulatory bodies, and multidisciplinary teams to guide technical direction and project strategy.
- Conduct detailed engineering studies to assess design margins, evaluate system impact, identify necessary plant modifications, and coordinate cross-disciplinary teams.
- Prepare technical reports, design change packages, and presentations for internal stakeholders and regulatory bodies.
- Support engagement with external vendors and contractors for specialized studies, equipment upgrades, and implementation planning.
- Bachelor’s Degree in Engineering (Nuclear, Mechanical, Civil, Electrical or related discipline) from an ABET-accredited university.
- 10+ years of relevant experience in nuclear engineering, with a focus on power uprates.
- PE license or progress toward licensure is a plus.
- Experience evaluating large‑scale power generation systems with industry‑accepted electrical codes and standards such as IEEE, IEC, NEC, and NERC; preferable in nuclear.
- Proficiency in performing engineering studies and analysis in one or more disciplines, including:
- Electrical: load flow, short circuit, arc flash, equipment protection, sequence of operation, and transient stability.
- Mechanical: thermal‑hydraulic evaluations, system flow modeling, pump and valve sizing, and stress analysis.
- Civil/Structural: structural load assessments, seismic and wind evaluations, foundation design reviews, and support modifications for uprate-related equipment.
USD - USD /Yr.
Eligibility To Work- Candidates must be legally eligible to work in the U.S. without requiring current or future sponsorship.
- Ability to pass pre‑employment and random drug and alcohol screenings, Enercon and client-specific background checks, and annual motor vehicle record (MVR) checks.
