• Long-term contract opportunity for a Commercial Grade Dedication SME. • Opportunity for Senior/Principal Lead Engineer working remote. • Report to the Manager of Operations. • Provide oversight, review, and governance of supplier CGD programs. • Ensure commercial-grade items used in safety-related applications meet design, regulatory, and quality requirements. • Focus on approval of supplier CGD programs—not performing dedication. • Be the Design Authority SME for CGD across AP1000 projects. • Determine safety function and critical characteristics using design documentation. • Review supplier CGD procedures, plans, and methodologies. • Evaluate technical adequacy of item determinations, critical characteristics, and methods. • Ensure compliance with 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, 10 CFR Part 21, and EPRI guidance. • Resolve technical gaps, risks, and nonconformances. • Work with suppliers, EPC partners, and engineering teams. • Integrate CGD requirements into design, procurement, and construction processes. • Develop guidance, training, and best practices.
• End-to-end features. You own your work from the database to the user interface, across the customer-facing web app, APIs, partner integrations, and workflows that support files from open to disbursement. You take a problem from rough idea through spec, build, review, and launch. • Driving requirements to closure. You partner directly with the product, turn ambiguous asks into concrete specs, surface tradeoffs, and drive the work to completion. You do not wait for a fully defined ticket. You gather context, make informed decisions, and move the work forward. • Quality you can stand behind. Money and identity flow through this product, so correctness is a core part of the role. You write tests, account for failure cases, and maintain a high quality bar on every PR, whether the first draft was written by you or by an agent. • Production readiness. You ship, observe, and respond. You improve the codebase as you work and help raise the team’s standard for reliability, maintainability, and operational quality.
• Own the architecture and hardest technical work on our engineering-quality initiatives: workflow testing, mutation testing (Stryker), end-to-end testing, our QA agents, and the public API. • Go where the hard problems are - across any squad's code. Your scope is technical correctness and leverage, not a team boundary. • Set the technical direction for cross-cutting systems, make the architecture-of-record decisions, and document the trade-offs. • Raise the technical ceiling of the org through design review, architecture guidance, and mentorship of senior engineers. • Identify systemic technical risk before it becomes an incident, and drive the fix. • Partner with the SVP of Engineering on technical strategy - you are a primary technical voice as we shape where the platform goes. • Set the standard for using AI in development responsibly: AI-augmented, but with validation of output as a non-negotiable, and you set the example.
