• Assist functional design teams in integrating subsystem designs into the master scope and schedule, using project management and systems engineering tools
• Capture system architecture details through model-based systems engineering diagrams and viewpoints
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure designs meet standards such as safety and regulatory compliance
• Provide input to designs to improve quality, reliability, safety, usability, and performance
• Participate in design reviews and represent the interests of systems engineering
• Help create installation procedures, commissioning plans, operations manuals, work instructions, and other documentation
• Mentor and train team members on systems engineering best practices

Minimum Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Physics, Chemistry, or related field
• 5+ years of relevant engineering experience 
• Experience in systems engineering, requirements management, or project management (2+ years)

• Experience with SolidWorks, AutoCAD, or Autodesk Revit
• Direct experience with nuclear or accelerator facilities
• Direct experience with radioisotope production
• Experience with radiation shielding and safety
• Experience with root cause analysis, FMEA, and safety/risk assessment
• P&ID proficiency within ASME Standards
• Leadership experience
• Experience working with a quality program and quality standards

Physical Requirements:

• Must be comfortable working in a facility that produces radiation.
• Work to be conducted in both an office environment and the production facility.

About Nusano:

No patient should be denied the cancer care they need simply because some options are in short supply or unavailable. Yet, all too often, this is what happens.

Nusano is a medical technology company that creates radioisotopes used to target and eliminate cancer cells with precision. Health care has used radioisotopes to diagnose and treat cancer and other diseases for decades. But, if supply does not keep up with demand, patients will lose out on the benefits of these lifesaving, proven tools.

Nusano’s patented technologies and methods are poised to transform radioisotope production and usher in an exciting new era in cancer care. Our state-of-the-art facility in West Valley City, Utah will produce radioisotopes quickly, efficiently, and affordably. This will make desperately needed resources available to hospitals and cancer clinics around the world and offer those with life-threatening diseases hope for a healthier tomorrow.
