The Joint Design Office (JDO) is part of the HPC Engineering Directorate. The JDO provides technical support to the HPC site for the resolution of technical challenges and issues arising during construction works as well as erection, commission and testing.

The JDO Steelwork engineer is responsible for answering requests relative to his/her building/ affected steelworks, and, shall it be necessary, to perform required calculations and update of the relevant notes.

As previously said, He/ She will have the support of other team members, technical experts within the team, by the back office in Bristol, or even by the Edvance Expert Network shall It be needed, in order to update/modify the relevant deliverables, with the suitable quality process.

The JDO Steelwork engineer will:

• Answer the requests on his/her scope ;
• Lead and monitor the production of the impacted deliverables on his/her scope;
• Interact with his/her back-office regarding design interfaces;
• Interact within the JDO with the client (project and intelligent customer) in order to support the overall project;
• Interact within the JDO with the other discipline in order to support the overall project;
• Support the JDO Steelwork team lead regarding the overall needs of the team (production, technical, quality);

Acting under delegation of the JDO Steelwork Discipline Lead, the JDO Steelwork engineer is responsible for:

• Checking update of deliverables previously issued by the back-office teams and updated by the JDO teams;
• Looking over the continuity and the consistency of the design modified by the JDO teams;
• Making sure that methods, referential, tools, process and delegated authority from the back-office teams are complied with,
• Looking over the interests of the Responsible Designer in the JDO on a daily basis, in particular with respect to topics such as intellectual property and responsibility of the Responsible Designer further to modification of their design by the JDO teams
• Produce in quality and quantity the necessary deliverables to support the project.

Perspectives :

Positions following that of JDO Steelwork engineer can be in a wide range of nuclear engineering professions:

• On the short term, should he/she demonstrate both the appetence and capability, a position of team lead may be given, as the need would rise consequently to the reinforcement of the team;
• On a longer term, through either a team lead or technical lead evolution, He/She could be given the responsibility to act as deputy on behalf of the team lead in the approval of the overall production of the area;

Otherwise, as next positions following a suitable performance, capabilities and will, it could be envisioned to shift to:  

• Civil team Lead;
• Technical referent or development of a career in expertise;
• Project engineer on multidiscipli

General and technical background expected:

Essential:

• Steelwork engineer with experience in design of structures in the nuclear industry or with experience on subjects at the interface between design and construction;
  • Experience in calculation notes preparation and mechanical behaviour;
