Project Overview:

For over 70 years, Bechtel has been at the forefront of nuclear innovation delivering clean, reliable energy worldwide on over 150 nuclear power plants, adding more than 74,000 megawatts of nuclear generation capacity to the world. 

 

Join us as we make history at the Hanford Vit Plant, known as the Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant. We are designing and building a one-of-a-kind facility that will turn radioactive and chemical waste left over from World War II and Cold War plutonium production into a form safe for disposal. Your efforts will help protect the nearby Columbia River and the communities, salmon, and wildlife along its shorelines throughout the Northwest.

 

Sitting at the confluence of the Columbia, Snake and Yakima rivers near two mountain ranges, our community provides access to year-round outdoor recreation, 300 days of sun a year, more than 200 wineries within a 50-mile radius, and the amenities of large cities just a three-hour drive (or short flight) to Seattle and Portland. Upon initial hire and onboarding, the position will require full time presence in the Richland, WA project office. Part-Time telework flexibility may be an option as the project progresses. 

 

Position Summary:

As the Operational Technology (OT) Cyber Engineering Group Supervisor (EGS), you will be responsible for supervising engineers and technologists and leading the OT Cyber engineering activities on the project. The OT Cyber EGS reviews and approves key OT Cyber engineering documents and must have broad knowledge of industry and regulatory standards, and design criteria pertinent to engineering.
