Job description

Savannah River National Laboratory (SRNL) is one of the Department of Energy’s premier national laboratories, delivering solutions critical to national security, nuclear materials management, and environmental stewardship.

We are seeking an experienced nuclear safety professional to serve as Nuclear Safety Manager supporting the Laboratory’s nuclear safety programs. This role works under the direction of the Senior Nuclear Safety Manager and in close coordination with the Chief Engineer to ensure SRNL’s nuclear facilities operate safely, maintain technically defensible safety bases, and remain in full compliance with DOE requirements.

This is not a back-office compliance role. You will be embedded in the mission — supporting safety basis development for new and existing nuclear facilities, driving criticality safety and readiness activities, and helping strengthen the safety posture of programs that are growing rapidly. If you want a role where your technical expertise and leadership make a direct impact on national security missions, this is it.
