Remote Nuclear Equipment Service Technician (Fuel Handling & Critical Cranes)

Your next challenge: keep the world’s clean energy moving

Imagine arriving at a nuclear plant before sunrise. You review procedures, lay out tools, and bring a critical crane back online with a precise calibration—safely, methodically, and with pride. By evening, your report’s filed, stakeholders are aligned, and the unit stays on schedule. If this sounds like a day you’d own, join Westinghouse’s FHE Outage & Maintenance Services team.

Remote-first: Work from anywhere in the U.S. and travel extensively (about 60–70%). You’ll report to the FHE Outage and Maintenance Supervisor.

- Execute field work on nuclear fuel handling equipment and outage-critical cranes: installations, setups, inspections, calibrations, maintenance, and troubleshooting.

- Prepare by reviewing procedures, maintenance plans, and drawings; adhere to qualified processes with zero compromises on safety or quality.

- Partner with engineering and training: perform equipment modifications, test and qualify processes, set up mock-ups, and capture data that drives improvements.

- Log equipment performance issues with accuracy and ensure corrective actions are validated prior to next use.

- Invest in your craft through recurring training and certification maintenance; keep pace with evolving technologies and standards.

- Work under general supervision while maintaining exceptional attention to detail and documentation discipline.
