Requisition Id 12937
Overview:
Oak Ridge National Laboratory is the largest US Department of Energy science and energy laboratory, conducting basic and applied research to deliver transformative solutions to compelling problems in energy and security.
Summary:
The Nuclear and Extreme Environments Measurements (NEEM) Group within the Fuel Development Section (FDS), Nuclear Energy and Fuel Cycle Division (NEFCD), Fusion and Fission Energy and Science Directorate, at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), seeks applicants for a post doctorial position with an emphasis in instrumentation and controls hardware and software development for nuclear thermal rockets and other next-generation nuclear reactors. The NEEM group is passionate about research & development (R&D) of hardware and software solutions for advanced reactor applications such as micro-reactors, molten salt reactors, and space nuclear reactors and the development of autonomous controls for these next-generation reactors.
The position will involve system architecture, design, implementation, and testing including hands on work with our mock-reactor autonomous controls testbed. The primary function of this position is to develop autonomous controls to be implemented in hardware-in-the-loop testbed. The controls will be expected to respond to fault conditions. Also, the applicant should understand actuator hardware and be willing to provide guidance on “best-practices” for hard-in-the-loop testbed development.
Job Duties and Responsibilities:
Conduct R&D projects and help the expansion of R&D to take advantage of our multidisciplinary capabilities, multimodal strengths, and unique tools and capabilities. Be knowledgeable in the fundamental concepts and principles ofcontrols hardware/software design and system integration. Develop new methodologies and algorithms for autonomous controls for space nuclear reactors. Implement controls in hardware-in-the-loop testbed and implement fault conditions for testing of control response.Required Qualifications:
Candidates must have a PhD degree in mechanical, electrical, aerospace, or nuclear engineering with a focus on instrumentation and/or controls. Experience developing control algorithms and implementing control software into hardware platform. Experience in having hardware and software communicate with each other in real-time. Proficiency in Python, C++, Simulink, or other similar languages for data analysis, model testing, and controls development.Preferred Qualifications:
Excellent communication skills including verbal, presentation, and writing skills are required to enable effective interaction with technical peers, program managers, and sponsors. Demonstrate a good understanding of risk analysis and mitigation in control system. Ability to draft high quality technical documents and give technical talks to the scientific community.Special Requirements:
Applicants cannot have received their Ph.D. more than five years prior to the date of application and must complete all degree requirements before starting their appointment. The appointment length will be up to 24 months with the potential for extension. Initial appointments and extensions are subject to performance and availability of funding.
