About This Job

We are seeking a senior Mechanical Design Engineer who specializes in designing and optimizing piping and mechanical systems within process-control environments that handle liquids or gases. This role demands extensive experience in fluid dynamics, equipment specification, and structural analysis. The successful candidate will lead innovation in system design with minimal supervision, ensuring projects meet operational, regulatory, and safety targets from conception through final realization.


Key Responsibilities

Lead the design, construction, and maintenance of facility piping systems, including rigorous component sizing and equipment selection (pumps, motors, heaters, blowers, valves, etc.).
Model pressure, flow, and thermal effects (steady ‐ state and transient) using CFD, FEA, and related tools; validate piping integrity under static and dynamic loads, and perform pipe-stress/structural analyses.
Develop, review, and red-line mechanical and piping drawings, plans, and specifications derived from engineering calculations; ensure compliance with codes, standards, and regulatory requirements.
Plan, schedule, conduct, and coordinate detailed phases of engineering work for major projects or for entire projects of moderate scope; prepare ROMs and detailed cost estimates, compile equipment specifications, and generate procurement documentation.
Participate in safety reviews, quality-assurance activities, training sessions, and regulatory audits; drive continuous improvement by integrating emerging technologies and best practices.
Produce technical reports, literature reviews, and progress updates; present findings and status briefings to stakeholders and senior management.
Direct the work of technical support staff and mentor junior engineers in mechanical and fluid-system design; guide troubleshooting and modifications to resolve equipment malfunctions.
Perform additional related tasks as assigned.


Preferred Background and Experience

Five to twelve (5 – 12) years of mechanical design-engineering experience with a strong focus on piping and fluid systems (industrial liquid or gas processes).
Demonstrated expertise in pressure-drop calculations, fluid-flow optimization, and equipment sizing/selection.
Proficiency in static and dynamic piping analyses, including pipe-stress and support-structure calculations.
Prior experience in highly regulated or process-driven industries (nuclear, chemical processing, oil & gas, HVAC, etc.).
Familiarity with relevant codes and standards (ASME or equivalent) and proven ability to integrate them into efficient designs.
Strong in fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, and materials science.
Proven history of analytical, problem-solving, and project-management skills; effective oral and written communication; collaborative mindset when working with cross-functional teams.


Education & Certification

Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering (or a related field) from an accredited institution – or equivalent combination of education and experience.
Professional Engineer (PE) licensure and/or certifications in project management or quality are advantageous but not required.


Additional Requirements

Ability to obtain and maintain a DOE Q-level security clearance.

In compliance with federal law, all persons hired will be required to verify identity and eligibility to work in the United States and to complete the required employment eligibility verification form upon hire.

This position will require a pre-employment background check and a pre-employment drug test.

Centrus Energy and all subsidiaries shall abide by the applicable legal requirements. We prohibit discrimination against qualified individuals based on their status as protected veterans or individuals with disabilities and prohibit discrimination against all individuals based on their race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or national origin.

This position requires the successful candidate to obtain and maintain a Department of Energy (DOE) security clearance. Candidates for positions requiring a security clearance are required to be tested for the absence of any illegal drug as defined in 10 CFR 707.4 prior to an offer of employment being made. In addition, once employe, employees will become part of a random drug testing program and may also be tested in the event of any incident causing injury or causing damage to property, or if it is determined that there is a reasonable suspicion the employee is under the influence of drugs or alcohol. This position will require preemployment background check on the part of the Company and in order to receive a DOE security clearance, a background investigation by the Federal government. Subsequent Federal government reinvestigations may be required.
