Nuclear Test Engineer

The Test Engineer will responsible for reviewing test requirements, designing a test, executing the test, and writing the report. The Test Engineer will work closely with internal and external customers to ensure the testing meets requirements and is conducted in a timely manner. The Test Engineer will work as part of a team of engineers and technicians to complete the testing activities.

Tasks:

• Assist in the drafting of test requirements
• Author the test design documents, test procedures, test report, and supporting documents
• Collaborate with internal customers to translate conceptual requirements into actionable test specifications, including design input, instrumentation strategy, and success criteria.
• Define, select, and validate measurement instrumentation including force, displacement, strain, and temperature sensors (e.g., load cells, LVDTs, encoders, RTDs, etc.).
• Coordinate cross-functional efforts including fixture design, control system integration, and lab space planning, leveraging technicians, designers, and facility personnel as needed.
• Manage test campaigns from concept through execution and reporting, including test setup, system validation, and post-test analysis.
• Support safe execution of testing activities, which may include working at elevated heights (typically under 60 ft).
• Under the guidance of Senior Test Engineers, support the coordination of testing activities for setup and commissioning of experimental equipment.
• Support continuous learning and application of nuclear industry best practices in order to maintain the highest quality of engineering design and proactively identify process change/enhancement opportunities.

Key Qualifications and Skills:

• Bachelor’s degree in applicable field of Engineering
• Greater than three (3) years of relevant experience in a testing / research and development environment preferred.
• Experience with post-processing and documenting experiments.
• Experience with multiple types of testing (R&D, Acceptance, Validation, Qualification)
• Experience working with strain, vibration, linear motion, static loading, dynamic loading preferred
• Working on large complex mechanical systems preferred
• Practical understanding of mechanical testing concepts such as force/displacement application, structural deflection, dynamic loading, vibration/impact, and environmental exposure.
• Awareness of common dimensional/inspection tools and motion capture technologies (e.g., Faro trackers, CMMs), even if not directly operating them.
• Ability to handle projects that include multiple objectives and ability to resolve conflicts between objectives.
• Ability to work on multiple tasks concurrently during a given work week.
• Excellent writing and communication skills.
• Safety conscience.
• Ability to operate within a lightly structured environment where test development requires a mix of standards-based guidance and first-principles problem solving.
