Job Description
At Orano, we’re not just powering the future—we’re engineering its foundation. As part of our groundbreaking uranium enrichment IKE Program, we’re redefining what a sustainable nuclear fuel production looks like for the next generation.

We're looking for Systems Engineers who thrive in fast-paced, high-impact environments. In this role, you’ll lead the planning, development, and execution of complex engineering systems that integrate safety, cybersecurity, reliability, and performance — all while supporting multidisciplinary teams across chemical, mechanical, electrical, and structural domains. You’ll be at the center of a major nuclear project, ensuring that everything we build meets functional and performance requirements — on time and on budget.

You’ll work shoulder-to-shoulder with elite engineers and regulatory experts, moving fast, solving hard problems, and making decisions that have real-world consequences. If you're ready to lead at the edge of what's possible in nuclear technology, we want to talk.

Key Responsibilities:

Own and manage systems engineering activities across the full lifecycle — from requirements definition to final integration.
Drive functional analysis, allocation, and interface control between systems and subsystems.
Coordinate technical execution across cross-functional engineering teams, including I&C, HVAC, and civil disciplines.
Monitor progress, report status, flag risks, and deliver recovery plans that keep projects moving.
Ensure compliance with safety, security, and regulatory frameworks at every stage of design and implementation.
Support all phases of development — from conceptual design through commissioning and operational readiness.

All candidates must meet the following minimum requirements in order to be considered for this opportunity. Candidates who exceed minimum qualifications may be considered for a higher-level position.
Requirements:

BS in Engineering or other technical field, plus 5-10 years related experience.
An advanced degree (MS or MBA) may substitute for 1-2 years and (PhD) may substitute for 2-3 years of related work experience.
In applicable states a PE license will be accepted in lieu of a 4-year engineering degree.

Differentiating Qualifications:

Leadership experience and experience training early career engineers.
Project management and systems engineering experience.
Knowledge of the 10CFR70 License application process.

Skills and Knowledge:

Advanced knowledge of related engineering standards, techniques, and criteria.
Strong communication skills and the ability to comprehend and convey detailed technical data.
Ability to maintain and develop strong interpersonal relationships.
Engineering organizations may have additional qualification requirements with established criterion to demonstrate success including but not limited to training courses and qualification cards.
