Job Summary:
A Human Factors Engineer is needed to support the major Digital Instrumentation and Control (I&C) modernization program for Dominion Energy’s Surry and North Anna Nuclear Power Stations. The Digital I&C project is a 10+ year effort as part of Subsequent License Renewal (SLR) to upgrade safety and non-safety-related analog systems to digital and transform the main control room to flat panel displays and controls. This role works with a cross-functional team of HFE peers, design engineers, station stakeholders, and project leads to evaluate changes to the main control room and other areas of the facility and how the operator interacts with the new digital control systems.

Responsibilities include:
• Developing prototypical graphical and analog human system interfaces to digital I&C systems (rapid prototyping) providing interface to approximately 120 process/support systems of an existing Nuclear Power Generating Station
• Supporting development, deployment, and maintenance of 3D models in support of Human Factors program activities
• Participating in Human Factors program activities in support of the project (e.g., functional requirements analysis and function allocation, task analysis, user interface design and evaluation, and other Human Factors Engineering evaluations)
• Reviewing Design / Engineering Change documentation and changes to Human Factors Engineering requirements, guidance, and documentation
• Supporting activities for Simulation, Procedure and Training changes, Factory and Site Acceptance Testing, Implementation, Post Modification Testing, and Design / Engineering Change Closure
• Partnering with the project’s internal and external groups and station stakeholders, including Operations, I&C, Training, and about 10 other departmental work groups
• Maintaining consistency and compliance with Dominion Energy and industry standards
• Identifying and elevating risks in human factors engineering work
• Achieving and maintaining qualification under Dominion Energy’s program for HFE
• Reporting status to project managers on a periodic basis

Required Knowledge, Skills, Abilities & Experience:
• Knowledge of relevant computer application (e.g. 2D and 3D drawing/modeling tools, etc.) with the ability to manipulate personal computer applications and perform engineering calculations using applicable software programs
