-
Develop and stamp engineering calculations, drawings, and specifications in compliance with CSA/IEEE codes and Bruce Power standards.
-
Execute front-end activities of the ECC (Engineering Change Control) process; champion constructability, maintainability, and safety from concept through approval.
-
Apply Bruce Power TCC (Temporary Configuration Change) process to manage temporary configurations and ensure safe plant conditions.
-
Support troubleshooting of plant electrical systems; develop corrective action plans and technical dispositions.
-
Interface with multi-disciplinary teams, contractors, and stakeholders to drive scope, schedule, and quality.
-
Ensure adherence to nuclear safety, regulatory compliance, and Bruce Power governance.
