Job Description
Job Description
Job Summary:

Centrus Energy is seeking a Fire Protection Engineer to develop, implement, and sustain the site fire protection and life-safety program at the American Centrifuge Plant (ACP) on the DOE Portsmouth reservation in Piketon, Ohio. You willserve as the site subject-matter expert in a highly regulated DOE environment, overseeing design review, code compliance, system testing/acceptance, impairment management, and overall program governance. The role will report to the Systems Engineering Manager and will require close coordination with Design Engineering, Operations, Maintenance, ESH, EPC partners, and DOE stakeholders.

What You Will Do:

Maintain a compliant Fire Protection Program aligned with applicable DOE directives and company procedures; establish processes, metrics, and assurance activities to verify continued compliance; analyze performance indicators and events, lead causal analysis, and drive corrective/preventive actions

Lead or oversee fire hazard analyses and related risk evaluations; recommend engineered and administrative controls and verify their implementation in the field

Interpret and apply relevant fire protection and life-safety codes and standards across design and operations; ensure appropriate interfaces with electrical safety, worker safety, and property-protection requirements

Review and approve fire protection system designs and calculations; define design inputs and acceptance criteria for construction packages; review vendor submittals and ensure accurate as-built records

Establish and oversee inspection, testing, and maintenance strategies and frequencies; integrate impairment control, compensatory measures, return-to-service testing, reliability improvements, spares/obsolescence planning, and continuous improvement with Maintenance and Operations

Define acceptance tests and witness on-site testing; support startup and commissioning of fire protection and life-safety systems; manage configuration updates and as-built documentation at turnover

Coordinate with site emergency response and local agencies on pre-incident plans, drills, and lessons learned; support hot-work, fire-watch, and related permitting programs

Provide training and mentorship on program expectations, impairment handling, and code requirements; serve as a technical point of contact for EPCs and vendors

We'd Love to Hear From People With:

Bachelor's degree in Fire Protection Engineering, Mechanical or Electrical Engineering, or a closely related discipline from an accredited institution

Professional licensure (PE) in Fire Protection or relevant professional certifications are a plus

6+ years of fire protection engineering experience for industrial/process or regulated facilities (e.g., DOE, nuclear, chemical, or large manufacturing)

Demonstrated ability to interpret and apply fire protection and life-safety codes/standards and integrate them with site procedures and worker-safety programs

Proficiency reviewing hydraulic and alarm/detection calculations, drawings, and submittals; experience establishing ITM programs and executing system acceptance testing

Strong risk-based decision-making, technical writing, and field presence; effective collaboration with multi-discipline teams, contractors, and regulators

Experience with special hazards (e.g., clean agents, flammable liquids/gases, high-energy electrical spaces, energy storage) is a plus

The ability to obtain and maintain a Q clearance

A Successful Candidate Brings:

Manufacturing/Assembly experience and/or aptitude

Experience with high vacuum systems and equipment

Lean manufacturing or Six Sigma experience

An active Q level security clearance

In compliance with federal law, all persons hired will be required to verify identity and eligibility to work in the United States and to complete the required employment eligibility verification form upon hire.

This position will require a pre--employment background check and a pre-employment drug test.

Centrus Energy and all subsidiaries shall abide by the applicable legal requirements. We prohibit discrimination against qualified individuals based on their status as protected veterans or individuals with disabilities and prohibit discrimination against all individuals based on their race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or national origin.

This position requires the successful candidate to obtain and maintain a Q security clearance. Candidates for positions requiring a security clearance are required to be tested for the absence of any illegal drug as defined in 10 CFR 707.4 prior to an offer of employment being made. In addition, once employed, employees will become part of a random drug testing program and may also be tested in the event of any incident causing injury or causing damage to property, or if it is determined that there is a reasonable suspicion the employee is under the influence of drugs or alcohol. This position will require preemployment background check on the part of the Company and in order to receive a Q security clearance, a background investigation by the Federal government. Subsequent Federal government reinvestigations may be required.
