The University Network of Excellence in Nuclear Engineering (UNENE) is seeking an experienced Electrical Engineer to support the development of professional development courses for engineers transitioning into Canada's nuclear industry.
This project will create foundational learning pathways that prepare Civil, Mechanical, and Electrical Engineers with the knowledge required to work in nuclear facilities, including existing CANDU reactors, refurbishment projects, Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), decommissioning, waste management, and uranium mining.
About the Role
As the Electrical Engineering Subject Matter Expert, you will collaborate with instructional designers and fellow nuclear experts to develop the Electrical Engineering discipline modules for Nuclear Physics
The domain includes a common core delivered to all engineering disciplines, followed by discipline-specific learning modules that demonstrate how nuclear concepts apply to electrical engineering practice. The program is designed around blended learning and competency-based education for engineers entering the nuclear sector.
We're Looking For
We welcome candidates with diverse practical experience across the nuclear sector, particularly experience that spans multiple technical domains and allows them to contribute across the broader curriculum.
Responsibilities
- Develop technical content for Electrical Engineering learning modules.
- Review instructional materials for technical accuracy.
- Provide real-world industry examples, case studies, and best practices.
- Work collaboratively with instructional designers to translate complex technical concepts into engaging learning experiences.
- Participate in content reviews and incorporate stakeholder feedback.
- Ensure content reflects current Canadian nuclear industry practices and regulatory expectations.
Qualifications
- Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) in Canada, or equivalent engineering designation.
- Minimum 7 years of relevant engineering experience.
- Experience within the Canadian nuclear industry or on nuclear-related projects.
- Strong written communication skills.
- Ability to explain technical concepts to engineers who are new to the nuclear sector.
Why Join This Project?
This is an opportunity to help shape the next generation of Canada's nuclear workforce. Your expertise will directly support engineers transitioning into the nuclear sector through high-quality professional development course.
