About the role
- The Senior Mechanical Analysis Engineer works within the Mechanical Analysis team of the GE Vernova Hitachi Nuclear Energy (GVH) Engineering organization
- The Mechanical Analysis team is responsible for performing analyses on the reactor vessel, internal structures, and components
- Typical evaluations may include stress analyses, fracture evaluations, dynamic load evaluations, vibrational responses, thermal evaluations, and other similar analyses to ensure performance consistent with applicable codes and regulatory requirements
- Develop creative solutions and reduce analysis complexity to create accurate and effective solutions for complex engineering problems
- Analyze primary plant structures to develop loads and response characteristics
- Confirm Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) or Reactor Internals components meet structural stress and fatigue criteria
- Qualify RPV or Reactor Internals repairs or replacement components considering static, dynamic, thermal, and flow-induced loads
- Evaluate static, dynamic, thermal, and vibrations loads (and other similar analyses) to determine loads on reactor systems and internals components
- Perform linear and non-linear structural evaluation to ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel code stress and fatigue qualification criteria
- Translate design information into detailed finite element models of BWR primary structures and equipment using Finite Element methods and GE in-house computer codes
- Engage customers to define scope, review results, and discuss technical risks
- Work with the technical leader to establish an effective work plan, including time estimates, schedule estimates, requirements, and work processes
- Identify and manage project execution risk
- Apply engineering fundamentals and 1st order engineering principles to establish and/or confirm expected performance
- Provide clear and complete analysis documentation in accordance with GE engineering procedures
- Analysis results typically provided in an engineering report for use by external customers
- Ability to present analysis results in a clear, organized, and concise manner
- Manage time effectively to provide quality deliverables within the expected project timeline
- Communicate effectively to leadership the status of work activities
- Effectively manage multiple priorities
- Coach and mentor less experienced engineers to increase overall knowledge while assuring a successful outcome
Requirements
- Minimum Bachelor’s degree in an engineering discipline from an accredited college or University
- Minimum of 8 years applicable experience performing mechanical analysis
- Nuclear Industry knowledge / experience or other highly regulated industry
- Strong knowledge of mechanical analysis fundamentals – stress analysis, heat transfer, non-linear systems, vibrations, fatigue, fracture mechanics, and drafting practices (including geometric dimensioning and tolerancing)
- Demonstrated ability to lead initiatives, effectively facilitate meetings and provide experience using static, transient, and dynamic simulations to model complex structures
- Experience coaching and mentoring to less experienced coworkers
- Working knowledge of the ASME Section III and XI Codes
- Demonstrated ability to model using ANSYS and APDL
- Working knowledge of scripting tools such as PROCD, Python, VBA, etc.
- A self-starter willing to take initiative
