Lead LOCA Analysis Engineer, BWR Systems

Advance nuclear safety while accelerating a clean‑energy future

Imagine guiding a plant team through a simulated BWR LOCA: you’ve built the model, executed runs in proprietary system codes, and distilled pages of outputs into clear conclusions that uphold licensing bases and inform critical decisions. If that challenge excites you, you’ll thrive at Westinghouse.

1. Own design‑basis LOCA safety analyses for BWR facilities.
2. Convert plant drawings/specifications into robust analytical models.
3. Interrogate two‑phase flow and heat‑transfer correlations to ensure appropriate application.
4. Translate results into concise, technically sound documentation.
5. Act as the go‑to contact for plant‑specific LOCA questions across internal and external stakeholders.
6. Maintain cognizance of each unit’s licensing basis.
7. Assess how design or operating changes influence design analyses.
