  • You will develop test procedures supporting commissioning of new plants (like the AP1000) to demonstrate the functionality of component and systems from preop testing through the startup phases.

  • You will then validate scenarios in control room simulators, before they are used to train reactor operators and implemented in plants worldwide.

  • You will work with professionals in the industry who will teach you the technical and professional aspects of working as an operations expert in the nuclear industry.

  • Your scope will include the operating fleet (integrating operating experience and new scenarios) and the next generation of nuclear plants (SMR and microreactors), giving you learning and development opportunities in both worlds.

  • As an author of operating and test procedures, you may support the commissioning of new plants worldwide.
