- Ensure systems, components, and equipment designs meet requirements for; regulatory
compliance, functionality, performance, qualification [environmental, seismic, embedded digital], interfaces, human factors, safety hazards, reliability, cyber security, etc.
- Perform detailed oversight, review, and verification of deliverables from; client, architect
engineering firms, and suppliers to ensure their; adequacy, accuracy, completeness, and compliance with requirements; design basis, practices, tool use, configuration and
documentation management, etc.
- Ensure design bases is adequately documented and conforms with applicable nuclear
[DOE, NRC, CNSC, ONR, IAEA] regulations, guidance, generic design certifications,
licensing commitments, and applicable industry standards [ANSI, ASME, IEEE, IEC, ISA,
NEC, NEMA].

- Identify, confirm, document, and lead resolution of technical issues.
- Drive standard work with; plan, schedule, scope definition, work processes, controls, and
tools. - Ensure deliverables are; on-spec., on-budget, and on-schedule with high “Say-Do” ratio.
- Establish and maintain close, responsive, productive and quality working relationships within
and between team members, engineering, support functions, business project management
and customers' engineers and plant staff to successfully drive project completion and
resolve emergent issues.
- Prepare technical bid proposals and change orders.
- Prepare learning sessions for knowledge capture and transfer - Mentor less experienced
engineers.
- Champion nuclear safety culture – Ensure compliance with GEH policies, quality
management system, and corrective action program.
- Deliver work with integrity, safety and security, quality, and then on-time output.
