Tritium Engineer - SHINE TECHNOLOGIES, LLC

JOB REQUIREMENTS: SHINE Technologies is seeking a Tritium Engineer to
lead the design, development, procurement, installation, and
commissioning of advanced tritium systems for our medical isotope
production facilities and fusion development projects. The Tritium
Engineer works as part of a collaborative team that is at the forefront
of bringing new nuclear technology and medical isotopes to market. SHINE
engineers are designing systems that will help diagnose heart disease,
treat cancer, and take us another step closer to clean energy. Your
experience should include an understanding of some combination of the
fundamentals of catalysis, reactor separations, metal hydride storage
materials, neutronic modeling & analysis or wet chemistry synthesis.
Familiarity handling and separating gases would be valuable. Qualified
candidates should have experience working directly with tritium,
orvacuum systems, cryogenic systems, and/or hydrogen unit operations
that include purification in either a radiological facility or working
in oil & gas or similar industry. Interested candidates must either have
a background in Tritium System design or have related experience and
want to grow their knowledge while developing next generation Tritium
systems. Duties and Responsibilities: Specific duties and
responsibilities of the Tritium Engineer include, but are not limited
to: Lead the technical direction of projects as the responsible engineer
for design, qualification and installation tasks to drive tritium system
designs forward. Collaborate with electrical, mechanical, nuclear and
software engineers/scientists in defining and documenting system
architecture and design, operational scenarios, and workflows. Support
licensing activities for SHINE tritium systems including the State of
Wisconsin Authorized User duties, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
license and local regulatory commissions in other countries. Work with
the accelerator team to assure that tritium is delivered to the
DT-fusion system. Work collaboratively with SHINE team members and
external stakeholders to ensure design conforms to all license, safety,
and operational standards. Prepare technical engineering documents,
review design drawings, and prepare/review calculations that support the
design. Gain hands-on tritium handling experience on our existing
tritium purification system serving the Fusion Linear Accelerator for
Radiation Effects (FLARE) system. Identify and incorporate lessons
learned into the design and fabrication for future systems. Assist with
the preparation of operation procedures for the safe handling of
tritium. Work closely with SHINE's third-party suppliers. *
OTHER EXPERIENCE AND QUALIFICATIONS: Bachelor's degree in relevant
engineering (chemical, mechanical, nuclear, etc.), physics or related
technical discipline. Advanced degree is a plus. (BS 4+ years' relevant
experience, MS +3 years' relevant experience, or PhD 2+ years'
relevant experience). Experience working with tritium and/or designing
systems that safely store and handle gaseous tritium is a plus.
Experience in one or more of the following areas: catalysis, reactor
operation design, metal hydride storage material, or wet chemistry
synthesis is desirable. Proficiency in the relevant modeling and
characterization methods. Neutronic analysis using Monte Carlo
N-Particle Transport Code (MNCP) experience is a plus. Ability to think
strategically and take decisive action once the necessary information
has been gathered. Knowledge of tritium regulations for shipping,
licensure, use, and disposal are a plus. Experience with TCAP (Thermal
Cycling Absorption Process) or cryogenic distillation is desirable.
Experience with getter beds, cryogenic separation of gasses, vacuum
systems, gloveboxes or hydrogen absorption materials is a plus.
