Key Responsibilities:
- Lead an international engineering team on Nuclear Island structures for EPR nuclear power plants.
- Design and analyze reinforced concrete and steel structures
- Ensure compliance with Eurocode, ETC-C, and nuclear safety standards.
- Assess seismic, dynamic, and construction-related loads for structural integrity.
- Collaborate with BIM teams, drafters, and engineers to ensure design coordination.
