  • 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
