Follow nuclear equipment operational policies and procedures that ensure environmental safety.
Conduct surveillance testing to determine the safety of nuclear equipment.
Monitor nuclear reactor equipment performance to identify operational inefficiencies, hazards, or maintenance needs.
Test plant equipment to ensure proper operation.
Apply safety tags to equipment requiring maintenance.
Follow radiation-worker safety policies and procedures to ensure personnel safety.
Modify, devise, or maintain nuclear equipment used in operations.
Monitor instruments, gauges, or recording devices under the direction of nuclear experimenters.
Perform testing, maintenance, repair, or upgrading of accelerator systems.
Warn maintenance workers of radiation hazards and direct them to vacate hazardous areas.
Calculate equipment operating factors—such as radiation times, dosages, temperatures, gamma intensities, or pressures—using standard formulas and conversion tables.
Measure the intensity and identify the types of radiation in work areas, equipment, or materials using radiation detectors or other instruments.
Communicate with accelerator maintenance personnel to ensure readiness of support systems (vacuum, water cooling, radio-frequency power sources).
Identify and implement appropriate decontamination procedures based on equipment and the size, nature, and type of contamination.
Decontaminate objects by cleaning with soap or solvents or by abrading with brushes, buffing machines, or sandblasting machines.
Collect air, water, gas, or solid samples for testing to determine radioactivity levels or ensure proper radioactive containment.
Determine or recommend radioactive decontamination procedures according to equipment characteristics and degree of contamination.
Set up equipment that automatically detects area radiation deviations and test detection equipment to ensure accuracy.
You’re able to participate in asynchronous work in partnership with leading AI labs.
