Your Purpose:
Are you an innovative civil or structural engineer or consultant with a flair for agile, lateral thinking? Do you excel in developing diverse technical and management skills to deliver ground-breaking projects? If you're a dynamic thinker who aspires to specialize in areas like advanced numerical (finite element) analysis, seismic, blast, and impact design, or if you're skilled in first principles engineering and problem solving, we're interested in you.
The Nuclear and Power civil and structural team is seeking experienced candidates with advanced structural design and analysis skills who can work as part of a team on the design, analysis and assessment of nuclear facilities.
