This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in United States.

📋 Description

• Conduct technical analysis in radiation transport, shielding evaluation, and nuclear modeling and simulation.

• Collaborate with architects, engineers, radiation protection specialists, clients, and regulatory stakeholders to establish data requirements, assess alternatives, document assumptions and uncertainties, and convert technical findings into well-supported design recommendations.

• Assist with assignments related to accelerators, nuclear facilities, national security, and advanced modeling.

• Provide support for advanced radiation transport, shielding, and dose assessments for accelerators, X-ray systems, nuclear facilities, and other intricate radiological applications.

• Offer practical guidance and credible solutions to complex modeling, shielding, and radiation protection issues.

• Create conservative bounding analyses in situations with incomplete information and refine these analyses as design data becomes available.

• Develop, implement, review, and document Monte Carlo radiation transport models.

• Assess barriers and streaming pathways utilizing facility blueprints and equipment details.

⛳️ Requirements

• Must be a US citizen.

• Possess a PhD in Nuclear Engineering or Physics.

• Hold an active Q clearance.

• Proven experience in developing, utilizing, or independently assessing models with MCNP, MCNPX, MCNP6, or another equivalent Monte Carlo radiation transport software.

• Experience in generating or reviewing credible shielding, dose, or radiation transport calculations for accelerators, radiation-generating devices, nuclear facilities, or similarly complex radiological systems.
