Position Summary

Successful applicants will have a radiological/nuclear background with demonstrated experience in nuclear facilities siting, construction, decommissioning, and/or waste management.

  • Significant experience leading or preparing NEPA documentation for federal programs or facilities (min. 15 years preferred)
  • Experience working on NRC and DOE documents is essential
  • Demonstrated experience in nuclear facilities siting, construction, decommissioning, and/or waste management strongly preferred
  • Strong project management and client communication skills
  • Ability to work independently while collaborating across distributed technical teams
  • Due to the requirements of federal contracts directly related to this role, U.S. citizenship and the ability to obtain a security clearance is required

Location & Work Arrangement

This position is remote (work from home) and open to qualified candidates located anywhere within the United States. Periodic travel may be required based on project needs.

The salary range for this position is $135,000 - $175,000 DOE/DOQ.
