Work in a hands-on, lab-based environment supporting critical electrical and control systems used in nuclear power plants. You’ll collaborate directly with engineering teams and apply your Navy Nuclear training to testing, troubleshooting, and evaluation of key plant equipment.

Your Navy Nuclear training makes you uniquely qualified for this role.
You’ve been trained in an environment where safety, quality, and attention to detail are non-negotiable, and where strict procedural compliance is required. That mindset is exactly what drives success in this role.

Read and interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and logic diagrams
Set up and operate electrical test equipment
Document test results and report non-conformances

Follow strict nuclear quality, safety, and procedural requirements

What We’re Looking For

Electrical, instrumentation, controls, or nuclear background (military or commercial)
Experience troubleshooting electrical or control systems
Experience with relays, control systems, or instrumentation preferred
Ability to read schematics and follow detailed procedures
Strong attention to detail and process-driven mindset
Experience with legacy/obsolete systems is a plus
U.S. Navy Nuclear (ETN, EMN, or similar) experience highly desired

Work Environment

100% on-site, 5 days/week in a laboratory/testing environment
Highly hands-on technical role (not a desk job)
Work alongside engineering teams on critical nuclear equipment
Industrial/lab setting with electrical systems and testing equipment
