Team Leader – Mechanical Design of Pressure Vessels in Nuclear Environment (J25-173)

Domain: Industrial and Nuclear Piping
Location: Grand Est region, France
Start Date: ASAP

Main Missions

Technical Analysis:

  • Study technical specifications, datasheets, and guide plans for pressure equipment.

  • Ensure compliance with regulatory requirements DESP/ESPN, standards, codes, client specifications, and internal procedures.

Feasibility Studies:

  • Integrate constraints related to normative codes and environments: RCC-M, EN13445, EN14015, CODAP.

  • Consider manufacturing, inspection, supply, handling, and maintainability constraints.

Design & Modeling:

  • Create 3D digital models and participate in design reviews.

  • Develop 2D plans (preliminary, assembly, detailed, fabrication-ready).

  • Review, comment on, and validate plans produced by other project participants.

  • Produce associated technical documents (bills of materials, datasheets).

Tools

  • CAD: SolidWorks, DraftSight

  • Occasional travel within France
