Structural Engineer/Analyst (DH)

Come join a growing multidisciplinary team of engineers designing the next generation nuclear power plant. EGS seeking an experienced mechanical/civil/structural engineer/analyst for direct hire. The engineer would be called upon to analyze metallic, reinforced concrete and soil-subgrade supported structures. The analyses may support engineering and licensing requirements, leading to the licensing and construction of SMR-300 plants across the globe. The engineer will use and learn various methods and software to perform the analyses.

Positions located in Camden, NJ, Pittsburgh, PA and Covert, MI and come with top competitive salaries, great benefits and relocation assistance. Must be US Citizen, Permanent Resident or Canadian Citizen eligible to work under a TN Visa.

SPECIFIC AREAS OF RESPONSIBILITY

Execute and document analyses for a variety of structures, systems and components (SSCs)

Review available concept designs based on an ambiguous set of requirements, then develop them into mature designs by critical thinking, literature research, interacting with members from other disciplines and vendors, and any analyses as permitted by project milestones

Support the preparation of design deliverables, presentations, and communicate design progress in stakeholder meetings

Support development of engineering and licensing requirements and documentation for nuclear SSCs TYPICAL ANALYSES

Static and dynamic finite element analyses (FEA) using ANSYS

Drop and impact (e.g., missile and aircraft) analyses and target response using LS-DYNA

Simulation of the seismic response of freestanding structures in air or submerged in water

Static and dynamic analyses of large reinforced concrete or steel-concrete composite structures

Soil-structure interaction (SSI) and fluid-structure interaction (FSI) analyses

Beam and plate stress calculations using established principles of strength of materials Job Requirements

MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS

Applicant must possess a BS in Mechanical/Civil/Structural Engineering with a minimum of 4 years of experience. MS will count for 2 years of experience and Ph.D. will count for 4 years of experience (experience from MS and Ph.D. cannot be combined)

Familiarity with industry standards and design codes such as ASME, ASCE, ACI and AISC

Must possess excellent credentials in principles of solid mechanics

Must possess excellent technical writing and communication skills DESIRED SKILLS

Industrial experience in the latest stress analysis codes such as ANSYS, LS-DYNA, and STAAD.Pro

Prior SMR and/or nuclear industry experience including interactions with NRC or other regulatory authorities

Experience in seismic and stress analysis of pressure vessels and rotating equipment

Experience in modular design development of SSCs
