Overview
As a Civil Engineer, you will join a multidisciplinary team within the Client’s Approving Authority to support current operations and future programs at client sites. You will author, assess, and maintain Engineering Design Substantiations to ensure design intent and safety requirements align with standards. You will lead design change control, present substantiations to safety committees, and contribute to safety case documentation. This role places you at the heart of nuclear/high-risk project work, emphasizing rigorous analysis, stakeholder collaboration, and regulatory compliance. You will shape robust civil/structural solutions in a high-hazard environment and help advance safe, low‑em‑
