Holtec International and its subsidiary companies are designing an unfailingly safe and secure source of clean energy using nuclear fission, called the SMR-300. Holtec Asia as a member of the Holtec International family, a global turnkey supplier of technologies for the nuclear and sustainable energy industries, is seeking to add a civil structural engineer. Come join a growing multidisciplinary team of engineers designing the next generation nuclear power plant.
The civil structural engineer would be called upon to analyse and design the metallic, reinforced concrete, steel-concrete composite and soil-subgrade supported structures. The analyses will support engineering requirements, leading to the licensing and construction of SMR-300 plants across the globe. The engineer will use and learn various methods and software to perform the analyses.
