Smart 3D Designer

Responsibilities

• Create innovative 3D models and detailed design drawings for facility layouts, system modifications, and new equipment development.
• Prepare P&IDs, PFDs, HVAC layouts, CE&I diagrams, and multi-discipline model integrations.
• Design and document complex piping systems, including isometrics, P&IDs, single-line diagrams, and support drawings.
• Support engineering teams in the design of FOAK nuclear and industrial equipment, gloveboxes, hot cells, shielded enclosures, and remotely operated mechanical systems.
• Collaborate closely with engineers to interpret concepts, solve design challenges, and refine system layouts across mechanical, civil, electrical, I&C, and process disciplines.
• Contribute to facility and process upgrades that improve operations, enhance safety, and support DOE cleanup and SMR program needs.
• Perform thorough self-checks of drawings and 3D models to identify potential issues early and ensure accuracy and quality.
• Review and provide feedback on drawings produced by peers; mentor junior drafters/designers as needed.
• Maintain red-line documents (ECNs, FCNs, etc.) and ensure compliance with internal and client design standards.
• Balance creative problem solving with adherence to safety requirements, engineering principles, and DOE/NRC design criteria.
• Meet schedule objectives and support project execution with reliable design deliverables.
