SME SPECIFIC DUTIES

Support the Client Nuclear & Criticality Safety Engineering (N&CSE) organization in the development of nuclear safety calculations and documentation for various facilities at the client as an expert in atmospheric transport and dispersion analysis for radiological and toxic chemical consequence evaluations of accident release scenarios to provide support to the Analytical Support group on an as-needed basis. There is a particular need for experience in performing software quality assurance and running atmospheric transport modeling and simulation software, specifically MACCS2 and GENII. Experience in source term calculations and additional atmospheric transport modeling and simulation software (e.g., AXAIR) would be preferred. Develop accident analyses for liquid and solid waste radiological release events. The events to be analyzed may include, but not be limited to, internal and external events (including fires and explosions) and natural phenomena (including seismic and high wind/tornado). Ensure that the developed nuclear safety documentation complies with requirements and that applicable controls are identified.

GENERAL DUTIES/EXPECTATIONS

Initiate own technical programs and make recommendations to management on technical programs based on analysis of customer needs and technology trends Reach solutions to the most complex technical problems in field(s) of expertise and influence solutions in neighboring disciplines. Apply technical experience in field of specialization (or broad-based experience in multiple technical fields) and use other technical resources in the company and external resources, to resolve complex problems. Incorporate advanced technical practices and a variety of complex features such as complicated technical requirements, application of new or special materials or processes, and difficult coordination or oversight requirements into problem solving and program planning. Provide leadership in determining solutions to complex problems and be recognized as having expertise in a functional area of technical specialization. Recommend research programs for others in group and assist in that planning. Develop solutions to the most complex technical problems in areas of expertise and in adjacent technical fields. Influence technical direction of other parts of the department and act as a technical communicator across disciplines to optimize the creative solution of technical problems. Conceive needed programs for self and for others in the department. Put needs in perspective with regard to other technical needs at SRNS. Sponsor new ideas in the department. Prepare plans including schedules, budgets and personnel requirements for solving major technical tasks for division. Develop schedules, monitor progress, monitor expenditures of budget and review quality of work performed. Include research, development, testing, and quality assurance requirements. Communicate results verbally and in manuscripts form. Report regularly the results and represent SRNS and SRS in technical areas to oversight groups and professional societies. Mentor less senior professionals in communication skills. Maintain excellent technical credibility by contributing significantly toward meeting Site missions and goals which may be demonstrated by issuing reports, making presentations, and/or involvement in national technical organizations. Mentor less senior professionals as a means of transferring technical knowledge and insight. Recommend engineering and technology research, development and application programs for others and assist in the planning of such programs.
