Job Description

Advance nuclear reliability—one AOV at a time

Your expertise can help deliver safe, clean energy. Join WECTEC Staffing Services, the talent arm wholly owned by Westinghouse Electric Company LLC, and support nuclear sites with high-stakes AOV diagnostics and maintenance.

Why this matters

During an outage or critical maintenance window, minutes count. You’ll arrive on site, align with the On-Site Manager, and take ownership of diagnostics, testing, and documentation so decisions are made quickly and accurately.

Contract Essentials

• Short-term assignment: ~4–6 weeks
• 40–72 hours per week
• 100% travel
• Opportunity for multiple short-term assignments

Your mission

• Serve as the go-to field resource for AOV maintenance across a variety of valve types and sizes.
• Execute functional post-maintenance testing, diagnostics, troubleshooting, and both corrective and preventive maintenance.
• Interpret diagnostic results and recommend repair strategies that drive first-time quality.
• Honor procedural compliance and mechanical safety clearance requirements at every step.
• Complete work per work orders; keep records detailed and accurate, and verify documentation quality.
• Perform diagnostic testing aligned with customer specifications and contractor parameters.
• Apply human performance tools (e.g., 2-minute rule, ALARA) to minimize risk.
• Support additional duties within your capabilities as requested by management.
• Be prepared for overtime, including shifts, weekends, and holidays.

What you bring

• High school diploma or equivalent; EPRI or technical/vocational training.
• At least 3 years of nuclear industry experience in AOV/actuator valve and General Valve maintenance and diagnostic testing.
• Mechanical and electrical skill set with the ability to read blueprints, schematics, and technical references.
• U.S. Navy nuclear background or comparable reactor operations/maintenance training.
• Positive performance history supported by client and contractor feedback.
• Proficiency with hand tools, electrical instruments, and diagnostic equipment; adherence to OSHA or client rules for electrical/mechanical safety.
• Complete and pass all pre-employment and employment screening requirements, which may include practical and written skills assessments, computer-based training, medical, psychological, background, and substance abuse screenings.
