Qualifications

The ideal candidate will be able to demonstrate the following: 1. Knowledge of the principles, theory, and practice in the field of nuclear engineering and physics or related field as it is applied to assessing performance and programs of nuclear power plants and related facilities. Specific knowledge and experience in the fields of radiation protection, radioactive effluent, radiological environmental monitoring, and human health. 2. Knowledge and experience in an engineering or scientific discipline, QA principles it applies to applicants, licensees, vendors of safety related items for nuclear power plants.  3. In-depth knowledge and understanding of applicable NRC regulations including General Design Criteria, Regulatory Guides, Industry Codes and Standards and other NRC criteria as given in the Standard Review Plan. 4. Ability to interpret and apply these criteria in complex situations when conducting review of Safety Analysis Reports, Topical Reports, operating reactor events, and other similar reports, or when testifying at public hearings. SPECIALIZED EXPERIENCE is defined as: GG13: Demonstrated knowledge of overall engineering or scientific principles and safety issues related to nuclear reactors, other nuclear systems and their support systems, instruments, and equipment. Applicants must also demonstrate professional experience involving the safety inspection activities in the area of procurement, design, fabrication and use of safety related items for nuclear power plants. GG14:  Performing technical and analytical reviews and demonstrated experience numerically modeling and evaluating design, operation, and performance of the reactor core, fuel designs, and/or reactor systems for nuclear reactors.   Applicants must also demonstrate experience providing expert technical and programmatic support on safety inspection activities in the area of design, fabrication, use and maintenance of safety related items for nuclear power plants. A detailed description of how you possess the specialized experience must be addressed in your resume.

Education

An unofficial copy of your college and/or university transcripts is acceptable for the purpose of application. However, you MUST provide an official copy of your college and/or university transcripts before you receive the final offer.  Education must be from an accredited (or pre-accredited) college or university recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. If you are qualifying based on foreign education, you must submit proof of credibility of education as evaluated by a credentialing agency.  If you have multiple degrees (e.g., BS, MS, PhD) please submit transcripts for each degree.

GG-0840 (Nuclear Engineering Series):

Degree: Engineering. To be acceptable, the program must: (1) lead to a bachelor’s degree in a school of engineering with at least one program accredited by ABET; or (2) include differential and integral calculus and courses (more advanced than first-year physics and chemistry) in five of the following seven areas of engineering science or physics: (a) statics, dynamics; (b) strength of materials (stress-strain relationships); (c) fluid mechanics, hydraulics; (d) thermodynamics; (e) electrical fields and circuits; (f) nature and properties of materials (relating particle and aggregate structure to properties); and (g) any other comparable area of fundamental engineering science or physics, such as optics, heat transfer, soil mechanics, or electronics.

OR

Combination of education and experience -- college-level education, training, and/or technical experience that furnished (1) a thorough knowledge of the physical and mathematical sciences underlying engineering, and (2) a good understanding, both theoretical and practical, of the engineering sciences and techniques and their applications to one of the branches of engineering. The adequacy of such background must be demonstrated by one of the following:

Professional registration or licensure -- Current registration as an Engineer Intern (EI), Engineer in Training (EIT)1, or licensure as a Professional Engineer (PE) by any State, the District of Columbia, Guam, or Puerto Rico. Absent other means of qualifying under this standard, those applicants who achieved such registration by means other than written test (e.g., State grandfather or eminence provisions) are eligible only for positions that are within or closely related to the specialty field of their registration. For example, an applicant who attains registration through a State Board's eminence provision as a manufacturing engineer typically would be rated eligible only for manufacturing engineering positions.

Written Test -- Evidence of having successfully passed the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE)2 examination or any other written test required for professional registration by an engineering licensure board in the various States, the District of Columbia, Guam, and Puerto Rico.

Specified academic courses -- Successful completion of at least 60 semester hours of courses in the physical, mathematical, and engineering sciences and that included the courses specified in the basic requirements under paragraph A. The courses must be fully acceptable toward meeting the requirements of an engineering program as described in paragraph A.

Related curriculum -- Successful completion of a curriculum leading to a bachelor's degree in an appropriate scientific field, e.g., engineering technology, physics, chemistry, architecture, computer science, mathematics, hydrology, or geology, may be accepted in lieu of a bachelor’s degree in engineering, provided the applicant has had at least 1 year of professional engineering experience acquired under professional engineering supervision and guidance. Ordinarily there should be either an established plan of intensive training to develop professional engineering competence, or several years of prior professional engineering-type experience, e.g., in interdisciplinary positions. (The above examples of related curricula are not all-inclusive.)
