Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) Engineer Specialist (DH) - EGS
Pittsburgh, PA
About the Job
Come join a growing multidisciplinary team of designers and engineers designing the next generation nuclear power plant. We are seeking a Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) Engineer Specialist to develop new and innovative Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations related to plant components. The analyses will support engineering and licensing requirements, leading to the licensing and construction of the first SMR-300 plant. The Analyst will use, and have the opportunity to learn, various methods and software to perform the analyses. The Engineer must be eager to learn new skills to create feasible/practical solutions to challenging design problems. The Engineer will be part of a team executing a U.S. Government cost-shared development program requiring efficient completion of engineering assignments.
Positions are available in Camden, NJ, Pittsburgh, PA, Covert, MI or Buchannan, NY. Top competitive salaries, great benefits and relocation assistance available.
Specific Areas of Responsibility:
- Collaborate in small teams focused on the development of complex flow and/or thermal simulations.
- Apply developed and developing capabilities to directly impact design processes and eliminate the need for hardware testing.
- Provide component-level and/or system-level design recommendations to Design Responsible Engineers based on the interpretation of analysis results.
- Participate in product design and development teams, presenting analysis results to engineering peers and management.
- Enhance concept designs based on limited requirements or functions and develop mature requirements by gaining an understanding of the system, structure, or components.
- Review available concept designs based on an ambiguous set of requirements, transforming them into mature designs through critical thinking, literature research, collaboration with team members from other disciplines and vendors, and any analysis permitted by project milestones.
- Support the preparation of design deliverables, presentations, and communicate design progress in stakeholder meetings.
- Assist in the development of engineering and licensing requirements and documentation for nuclear systems and components.
Minimum Requirements:
- BS in Mechanical or Nuclear engineering.
- Experience using commercial CFD software such as ANSYS-FLUENT, ANSYS-CFX, and STAR CCM+CFD software.
- Thorough knowledge of heat transfer and fluid dynamics fundamentals.
- Thorough knowledge of CFD models for turbulence.
- Demonstrated excellent technical writing skills and effective communication skills.
- Industry experiences using CFD simulation to support product development.
- At least 5 years of experience in the field or in a related area.
- Effective communication, organizational, interpersonal, and technical writing skills.
- Excellent attention to detail and capable of producing error-free documents.
- Strong math, analytical, problem-solving, and computer skills.
- Must be Eligible to work under 10 CFR Part 810.
Optional Additional Qualifications:
- MS and PhD in mechanical engineering, and applied mechanics, or closely related field of engineering.
- Experience working with engineers and fabricators to develop designs and drawings.
- Experience with SolidWorks, AutoCAD, and ANSYS software.
