Bruce Power is seeking a highly skilled Electrical Engineer to support nuclear generation operations. The successful candidate will have direct Bruce Power/CANDU experience and deep expertise across transformers, high-voltage distribution, power systems, and power jumper applications—especially within ring-bus station arrangements. This role focuses on front-end engineering within the ECC process and requires strong knowledge of Bruce Power governance, safety, and configuration control.
Lead and support electrical design, modification, and maintenance activities for nuclear station systems.
Provide technical expertise on transformers, high-voltage distribution (18.8 kV, 4.16 kV), main power output ring-bus arrangements, and power jumpers.
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.
Mentor junior engineers and provide professional technical guidance.
Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) in Ontario (in good standing).
Bruce Power or CANDU nuclear experience (required).
High-voltage distribution: 18.8 kV and 4.16 kV systems (protection, coordination, equipment selection, and integration).
Main power output ring-bus arrangements (design, analysis, and operability considerations).
Transformer replacement design and associated ECC deliverables.
Power jumpers (design and application in nuclear station environments).
Proven knowledge and practical use of Bruce Power TCC process.
Strong familiarity with CSA/IEEE standards and nuclear QA/QC requirements.
Ability to prepare/stamp calculations, single-lines, schematics, wiring diagrams, and specifications.
B.Sc. or higher in Electrical Engineering.
P.Eng. (Ontario) – required.
BP Cleared (or eligibility to obtain); understanding of site access and security protocols.
5+ years’ experience in power systems engineering with transformers, high-voltage equipment, and jumper design.
Demonstrated experience delivering within a nuclear governance framework (procedures, safety culture, configuration control).
Protection & Control (P&C) coordination, relay settings, and arc-flash studies.
Experience with station service systems, motor control centers, and auxiliary power systems.
Familiarity with asset management, condition assessment, and lifecycle planning for transformers and switchgear.
