The Technician, Engineered Systems supports the installation, fabrication, modification, maintenance, commissioning, and troubleshooting of engineered process systems and equipment supporting nuclear fuel development and manufacturing operations.
Responsibilities
- Engineered Systems Installation & Fabrication:
- Install, assemble, modify, and support engineered process equipment, skids, fixtures, piping and tubing, valves, fittings, brackets, and mechanical assemblies.
- Perform hands-on fabrication and modification work using common shop tools, machining or fabrication methods, and approved work practices.
- Support equipment layout, fit-up, alignment, anchoring, utility connections, and field changes during installation or upgrade activities.
- Read and work from drawings, schematics, P&IDs, equipment manuals, bills of material, and engineering instructions.
- Equipment Maintenance & Troubleshooting:
- Perform preventive and corrective maintenance on process equipment and supporting systems.
- Troubleshoot mechanical, vacuum, pneumatic, electrical, instrumentation, and process-related equipment issues.
- Support furnaces, gas delivery systems, valves, regulators, pressure-control components, process skids, and related manufacturing equipment.
- Identify root causes of recurring failures and implement or support corrective actions that improve reliability and reduce downtime.
- Process Systems & Instrumentation:
- Install, inspect, adjust, and support instrumentation including pressure, temperature, flow, and other process measurement devices.
- Assist with calibration, functional checks, leak checks, system verification, and basic loop or control troubleshooting.
- Support chemical and gas handling systems, furnaces, thermal-processing equipment, pneumatic systems, and other engineered process utilities.
- Work with engineering and operations to evaluate equipment performance and implement practical system improvements.
- Commissioning, Qualification & Continuous Improvement:
- Support equipment commissioning, acceptance testing, qualification, decommissioning, and return-to-service activities.
- Execute test plans, checklists, equipment verifications, and system walkdowns under engineering direction.
- Develop and use precision measurement methods, gauges, fixtures, or go/no-go tools where appropriate.
- Assist with equipment upgrades, process improvements, reliability initiatives, and design-for-maintainability improvements.
- Documentation, Safety & Cross-Functional Support:
- Create and maintain maintenance records, procedures, work instructions, equipment documentation, and field-change records.
- Document troubleshooting results, repairs, modifications, measurements, and as-found/as-left equipment conditions accurately.
- Perform work in accordance with site safety, radiological, environmental, quality, and configuration-control requirements.
- Collaborate with engineers, operators, maintenance personnel, quality, EH&S, radiological controls, and vendors to support production and project needs.
Preferred Qualifications
- High school diploma or equivalent required; associate degree, technical diploma, apprenticeship, or relevant trade certification in electromechanical technology, industrial maintenance, instrumentation, mechanical systems, fabrication, or a related field preferred.
- 5+ years of hands-on experience maintaining, installing, fabricating, or troubleshooting industrial process equipment in manufacturing, semiconductor, chemical processing, nuclear, energy, aerospace, or another technically demanding environment.
- Strong hands-on experience with some combination of furnaces, gas or chemical delivery, pneumatics, instrumentation, process piping or tubing, mechanical assemblies, or industrial utilities.
- Demonstrated ability to diagnose equipment failures, perform root-cause troubleshooting, and complete repairs or modifications with limited supervision.
- Experience reading drawings, schematics, P&IDs, equipment manuals, technical procedures, and equipment documentation.
- Experience with fabrication and field modification work involving tubing or piping, valves, fittings, brackets, fixtures, sheet metal, plumbing, or similar mechanical work.
- Familiarity with precision measurement tools, calibration practices, metrology, and equipment verification methods.
- Experience supporting equipment installation, commissioning, qualification, upgrades, or decommissioning activities.
- Experience with uranium processing, nuclear fuel fabrication, chemical vapor processing or coating, radiological work, or controlled nuclear manufacturing environments preferred.
- Familiarity with PLC/HMI interfaces, automated equipment, welding, brazing, machining, CAD, or 3D printing is a plus.
