Company Overview Blue Energy’s mission is to unlock energy abundance, energy affordability, energy security, and turn-key decarbonization by developing the fastest path to deploying new nuclear MWs at scale. We are utilizing shipyard manufacturing supply chains and techniques from offshore oil and wind to reduce the cost of nuclear plants by over 60% and the manufacturing timeline to 24 months. Blue Energy is a platform technology that makes use of the latest NRC-approved reactors and is in negotiations with existing nuclear and industrial sites, enabling a much faster regulatory pathway to deploy our first unit. With our innovative centralized shipyard manufacturing approach, we can put nuclear power on a cost-reduction learning curve akin to wind, solar, and lithium-ion batteries. Blue Energy is seeking a skilled and detail-oriented 3D Modeler to join our team for a Small Modular Reactor development project. The 3D Modeler will play a critical role in creating accurate and comprehensive 3D models of mechanical, structural, and electrical components involved in power plant design and construction. These models will be used for planning, simulation, and execution purposes, as well as fund-raising and marketing. Oftentimes, the 3D model serves as a communication between different groups and departments, so excellent communication and presentation skills will be imperative. Expectations: Raise issues and concerns quickly, we strive for a culture where everyone can communicate openly so problems can be resolved as quickly and efficiently as possible. This is as important for technical issues as it is for non-technical and personnel issues. The longer things go “unmentioned”, the longer they “fester” and the more painful they are to resolve. Budget and Schedule are important Everyone, as owners and owners representatives, is ultimately accountable for accomplishing our goals on time and on budget. However, if “Doing it Right” means we need to spend a little more time or money, raise the issue to me and we will discuss the best path forward. It's a balance and we can address all “gray” areas as a team. People make mistakes, especially when developing a First of a Kind product. Be open with mistakes of yourself and others, we want to ensure we understand every error, potential error or near miss so that we establish engineered controls or procedural steps to prevent recurrence. These errors, omissions and oversights can be resolved in a professional manner without people fearing reprisal, if we build the culture the right way. We are all responsible for building this kind of working environment. Responsibilities: Have an understanding of how all plant systems are designed, operated and will perform in the field. It is your responsibility to understand how the plant is designed at a high level to ensure the 3D Model remains accurate at all times. If you have questions, it’s likely someone else has the same question. Ask the question, get the answers and share the results. Work closely with our in-house engineering team as well as engineering and construction sub-contractors to identify and quickly resolve issues, clashes, inconsistencies and potential conflicts. If you realize you need help resolving an issue make sure you request assistance early and resist the urge to try and resolve all issues on your own (don’t try to be a hero) We will have frequent interaction with the Licensing Team who rely on us heavily to ensure all questions, concerns and issues raised by the regulator are addressed accurately and timely Proactively provide support to the Licensing team and identify issues that need oversight by leadership to ensure resolution Coordinate with project management and construction teams to review models and make necessary adjustments based on feedback, construction progress, and real-time data. Identify risks and challenges that may arise in the future and implement mitigation strategies to reduce additional costs during construction, commissioning and operations. Actively participate in construction and commissioning. This will involve frequent and potentially extended trips to the construction site to participate in, supervise and ensure the quality of construction and commissioning activities. Team leadership to address inevitable technical issues during construction and commissioning will be a key aspect of this portion of the job responsibilities. Assist in the creation of virtual construction simulations to predict potential issues, optimize construction schedules, and ensure that project timelines are met. Generate technical reports, model drawings, and other relevant documentation required for internal reviews, client meetings, and regulatory approvals. Ensure that 3D models are continuously updated and aligned with ongoing design changes, engineering adjustments, and construction modifications. Lead periodic cross-functional 3D model reviews for accuracy, completeness, and adherence to engineering standards and project requirements. Qualifications: Education: Bachelor’s degree or diploma in Engineering, Architecture, CAD Design, or related fields. Experience: Minimum of 3 years of experience as a 3D modeler, preferably in power plant, industrial, or large-scale infrastructure projects. Technical Skills: Expertise in 3D modeling software such as AutoCAD, Revit, Navisworks, SolidWorks, or similar. Experience with BIM (Building Information Modeling) software is a strong plus. Strong understanding of power plant components, such as turbines, boilers, piping, and electrical systems. Proficiency in clash detection and resolution techniques. Ability to read and interpret complex engineering drawings, technical documentation, and construction plans. Certifications: PMP or other project management certifications are a plus. Soft Skills: Strong attention to detail with a focus on creating accurate and realistic models for real-world application. Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills. Strong communication and interpersonal skills. Ability to work independently and as part of a team. Strong leadership and decision-making capabilities. We look forward to your application and helping foster an era of safe, clean, affordable, and abundant energy. Blue Energy is dedicated to building a diverse and inclusive workplace. If you’re excited about this role but your experience doesn’t perfectly align with every requirement, we encourage you to apply anyway. You might be the right candidate for this or other roles at Blue Energy now or in the future.
