Job Description

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. ANSYS, LS-DYNA, SAP2000 and ETABS are amongst the most widely used codes in this department. Specialists in this department are engaged in performing stress analysis and strength qualification of various structures, systems and components (SSCs) in nuclear and solar power plants. The analyst would be called upon to analyze metallic, reinforced concrete, modular steel-concrete composite, and soil-subgrade supported structures

Positions are located in Camden, NJ and come with top competitive salaries, great benefits and relocation assistance is available. 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)

• 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

Minimum Technical Requirements:

• Masters in Civil or Structural or Mechanical Engineering
• In-depth knowledge of strength of materials and structural mechanics
• Experience using commercial software such as ANSYS, LS-DYNA, Abaqus, ETABS, SAP2000, Plaxis 3D, and STAAD.Pro
• Familiarity with industry standards and design codes such as ASME, ACI, ASCE and AISC
• Excellent technical writing, interpersonal and effective communication skills

Desirable Additional Qualifications:

• Doctorate degree in Civil, Structural or Mechanical Engineering
• Experience in conducting seismic and impact-based dynamic analyses
• Knowledge of geotechnical and geophysical engineering
• Experience in modular design development of SSCs
• Experience working with designers and manufacturers to develop models and drawings; knowledge of software such as SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Tekla and Revit
• Prior nuclear industry experience including interactions with NRC or other regulatory authorities
