Full Job Posting
Own the Process Design
Own the process design of assigned systems: process flow diagrams, P&IDs, material and energy balances, equipment sizing, and the design requirements that flow from them.
Prepare and review design packages, specifications, test plans, calculations, reports, and drawings in the following areas: Radiation hot cell installation and use Piping, valves, and tanks design, use, installation, and testing Confinement boundaries testing Air handling testing Chemical separations of aqueous media Fluid flow and heat transfer Other chemical and mechanical calculations

Piping, valves, and tanks design, use, installation, and testing
Confinement boundaries testing
Air handling testing
Chemical separations of aqueous media
Fluid flow and heat transfer
Other chemical and mechanical calculations
Apply a graded approach to the requirements on assigned systems: justify each one, and take the ones that cannot be justified to the Chief Engineer for removal.
Lead or participate in hazard and operability studies (HAZOPs) and design reviews for assigned systems, and close the actions that come out of them.
Work with SHINE R&D to carry process technology from development into a design that can be fabricated, licensed and operated.
Carry the Design Through Procurement and Testing
Write equipment specifications and requirements documents that vendors can build to, and work with procurement to purchase equipment.
Work with equipment vendors on factory acceptance tests, site acceptance tests, and on-time/on-budget design and/or delivery of chemical process equipment
Perform owner’s acceptance reviews for vendor provided reports and calculations.
Prepare/review test plans for factory and site acceptance testing of equipment.
Perform walk-downs of installed equipment in the field.
Success in the First Twelve Months
The process design for assigned systems has reached the maturity needed to support the Pilot facility construction permit application (or equivalent), and is under configuration control.
The requirements on assigned systems have been reviewed against a graded approach, and the ones that could not be justified have been removed with the reasoning documented.
Long-lead equipment has been identified and its specifications are far enough along to engage vendors.
