[Remote] License Renewal Implementation Consultant 2 – Nuclear

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Sargent & Lundy is a trusted leader in nuclear engineering, design, and licensing. They are seeking an experienced License Renewal Implementation Consultant to support license extension and post-approval implementation activities across the U.S. nuclear power fleet, focusing on turning LR/SLR commitments into practical inspection and implementation plans.ResponsibilitiesSupport LR/SLR implementation activities such as procedure changes, preventive maintenance (PM) basis and frequency development, work order (WO) development and review, and nuclear program basis document updatesRoadmap required inspections and aging management activities to comply with NRC regulations, LR/SLR commitments, and applicable AMPsDefine and help maintain sample populations and inspection scopes (e.g., one-time inspections, selective leaching, tank inspections) and ensure results are traceable to LR/SLR commitments and program requirementsUse work management and planning systems (e.g., WOs, PMs, work items) to identify and capture LR/SLR opportunities in both online and outage scopesScreen and analyze large WO and PM lists (often thousands of line items) to identify high-value inspection opportunities based on system, component, material, and environmentCoordinate with schedulers, planners, and field organizations to embed aging management needs into realistic work sequences and outage plansDevelop and maintain engineering program basis documentation, including AMP basis, PM basis, and supporting technical justificationsPerform data validation, engineering change tracking, and configuration control for LR/SLR-related documents and commitmentsSupport NRC commitment tracking and closure, including preparing or reviewing technical responses, inspection packages, and closure documentationInteract with clients and NRC in a technical expert role, clearly explaining aging management strategies, inspection plans, and resultsWork closely with mechanical, electrical, and structural SMEs, program owners, and field leads to refine scopes, aging mechanisms, and documentation expectationsFoster a culture of continuous improvement, technology-forward thinking, and cross-functional collaboration across engineering, planning, and implementation teamsMaintain awareness of changes in LR/SLR and aging management regulations, guidance, and industry operating experienceIncorporate relevant NUREGs, NEI guidance, and industry OE into program basis documents, implementation strategies, and inspection plansSkillsAn associate's degree or equivalent experience10 or more years of experience in the design and analysis of nuclear, industrial, or DOE facilitiesProven experience managing and/or participating in multi-disciplinary teamsExperience in managing medium-to-large critical projectsExcellent written and verbal communication skillsExperience

(nuclear, DOE, or equivalent)Familiarity with engineering documentation systems, nuclear QA/QC protocols, and configuration management processesStrong systems thinking skills, with the ability to balance innovation with compliance, safety, and traceabilityDemonstrated ability to work with work management systems (e.g., work orders, PMs, planning tools) and to align technical requirements with implementable work packages and schedulesProven capability to collaborate with SMEs and field organizations, using drawings, histories, prior WOs, and data to converge on practical implementation solutionsPrior involvement in license renewal, subsequent license renewal, or nuclear aging management programs, including development or implementation of AMPs, one-time inspections, or selective leaching programsExperience with NRC, INPO, or DOE regulations, and participation in NRC audits or inspections (e.g., Inspection Procedure 71003 or similar)Familiarity with key nuclear industry LR/SLR

Renewal Task Force or similar industry working groupsStrong practical understanding of mechanical systems and components (pumps, valves, strainers, tanks, heat exchangers, piping) and how work is actually performed on them in the fieldAbility to connect materials and environments to aging mechanisms (e.g., loss of material, pitting, erosion, selective leaching, coating degradation) and to define what inspections need to observe and documentBackground in one or more of the following: mechanical maintenance/engineering, system engineering, NDE/inspection, chemistry/corrosion engineering,
