Your Team

The Radiation Engineering & Analysis (REA) group at Westinghouse is looking for an experienced nuclear engineer a physicist with an interest in nuclear applications or a similarly-credentialled engineer to support its continued growth.

REA has supported the design and analysis of PWRs since the early days of the commercial nuclear power industry. Its scope has expanded from the Westinghouse fleet to include the Combustion Engineering PWR fleet the BWR fleet and several advanced reactor designs such as the Westinghouse AP1000 plant eVinciTM microreactor and AP300TM small modular reactor. Our market is global with customers in Europe Asia Africa and the Americas covering the operating fleet decommissioning and new build. To meet this demand our staff is also global with engineers in the U.S. Spain Poland India and Germany.

The primary responsibilities and technical areas for this role include :

• Own and lead specific scopes on large commercial nuclear and decommissioning projects

We use many state-of-the-art codes that were developed in-house including RAPTOR-M3G our latest 3D discrete-ordinates tool. The in-house codes supplement our use of publicly available nuclear codes (e.g. MCNP DOORS and SCALE) to meet the specific needs of our customers. Most calculations are performed in the Linux environment.
