The Applied Nuclear Technologies department is seeking an early- to mid-career Nuclear Engineer to support technically challenging work in service of nation's security missions. In this role, you will contribute to the development, execution, and analysis of experiments focused on radiation effects in materials and electronics.
You will work as part of a multidisciplinary team supporting mission-driven programs and will be expected to contribute across a range of activities, including hands-on experimental work, modeling and simulation, numerical data analysis, and technical and Work Planning and Control (WP&C) documentation. The successful candidate will be a self-motivated engineer or scientist who is excited to contribute to demanding experiments and take ownership and grow into a leadership role.
On any given day, you may be called on to:
-
Support the planning, setup, execution, and post-test analysis of radiation effects experiments.
-
Apply knowledge of radiation interactions with materials to interpret results and support the design of experiments.
-
Work with a team to use MCNP and related computational tools to enhance understanding of experiments.
-
Process, analyze, and visualize experimental or simulation data using Python, MATLAB, or similar technical tools.
-
Prepare technical reports, presentations, and other documentation that clearly communicate methods, results, and recommendations.
-
Work closely with scientists, engineers, and technologists in a collaborative team environment.
-
Contribute to both hands-on laboratory/test activities and office-based work.
Due to the nature of the work, the selected applicant must be able to work onsite.
