Sargent & Lundy • Pittsburgh, PA • 11h ago

Description

Nuclear Power is a carbon-free energy source. We offer you the opportunity to utilize and expand your academic background in engineering by digitizing nuclear power plants:

You will work on a multi-discipline engineering team involved in nuclear power plant Instrumentation and Control projects. These projects are a synergistic integration of electrical, computer and mechanical engineering along with control theory.

You will work with electronic process sensors, digital controllers, network topology, touchscreen displays, pumps, valves, heat exchangers, steam turbines and reactors.

You will prepare specifications for the procurement of instrumentation and controls equipment as well as engineering calculations.

Through mentoring, classroom-style technical sessions, and on-the-job training, you will increase your knowledge and skills in your engineering discipline.

You will also have the opportunity to travel to client and vendor offices for design reviews and to plant site locations for project coordination and field verification of designs.

Support station outage activities as required

Qualifications

We do not sponsor employees for work authorization in the U.S. for this position.

Essential skills and experience:

A BS or MS degree in Electrical, Mechanical, or Chemical Engineering (from an ABET accredited program) with a strong academic background and coursework in analog and digital control systems is required

A minimum of 3 years of experience in design engineering for power plant control systems

Excellent written and verbal communication skills

AI & Automation at Sargent & Lundy

In this role, we expect people to be willing or able to solve problems using modern tools:

You are expected to take engineering problems from issue to solution using data and modern tools such as automation and AI to improve workflows, reduce rework, and deliver cost-effective designs.

Many engineers in these roles build or use automation to create calculations, summarize technical documents, or draft design documentation, including appropriate use of agentic AI tools, with strong engineering judgment and verification of results.

Programming or scripting (e.g., Python, MATLAB, advanced Excel) to automate calculations, design checks, reporting, or data transformation is valued but not required.

We also value additional learning, such as a minor, certificate, or other training in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Software Engineering, or related fields that helps you apply automation or agentic AI to real engineering problems.
