VC Summer Nuclear station is looking for a Fire Protection Engineer I, II, or III OR Engineering Technical Specialist I, II, or III (role will be filled commensurate with experience) in Jenkinsville, SC.    Position is responsible all conventional and risk aspects of Fire Protection Engineering as part of Dominion's V.C. Summer Nuclear Plant Design Engineering group.  Will perform/review engineering calculations, analysis, research and design changes. Project support activities such as system specifications, design and bid evaluations, construction walkdowns, and participation in a review of system final acceptance tests. The position will also interface with regulators during inspections.

Performs and/or reviews engineering calculations, analysis, research and design. Provides cost analysis as needed and develops recommendation based on calculations (e.g. cost for equipment upgrade) for management review.  Distinguished from Engineer I by increased complexity in application of engineering skills required.  Under direction of supervisor or work leader, exercises independence in evaluating, selecting and applying standard or well defined engineering techniques, procedures and criteria.  Uses independent judgment in prioritizing and making moderately complex adaptations and modifications.  Assignments have clear and specified objectives and require investigation of a limited number of variables.

Military service members and veterans with ranks from E3-E5, W1-W2, or O1-O3, plus appropriate equivalent combination of education and years of experience as outlined (above/below) are strongly encouraged to apply. Engineering Technical Specialist series differs from Engineer in that it does not hold an ABET accredited engineering degree; however, does perform an engineering function.  Distinguished from the Engineering Technical Specialist II by the increased complexity in the application of technical and engineering skills and knowledge.
