About the role
The Nuclear Company is seeking a highly motivated and detail-oriented Senior Nuclear Training Specialist to join our Regulatory Affairs & Training team in Columbia, South Carolina.
The Senior Nuclear Training Specialist designs, develops, and delivers performance-based training and qualification programs across TNC’s training organization — spanning internal compliance and technical qualification, project and site support, leadership and onboarding, and client-facing services delivery. The role applies the Systematic Approach to Training (SAT) to build programs that satisfy regulatory and industry standards while scaling to fleet deployment, and contributes directly to TNC’s commercial training offerings for domestic and international clients.
This is a builder’s role. You will create qualification standards, curricula, examinations, and program infrastructure where none exists — and you will do it at startup speed with nuclear-grade rigor.
Responsibilities
Program design and development
Design and develop training programs using the Systematic Approach to Training (analysis, design, development, implementation, evaluation) consistent with ANSI/ANS 3.1, 10 CFR 50.120, and INPO ACAD guidance.
Conduct training needs analyses; develop qualification standards, qualification cards, job performance measures, lesson plans, and written/practical examinations for professional, technical, and craft positions.
Develop pre-qualification and selection assessment instruments with defensible, behaviorally anchored scoring for safety-significant roles.
Leverage TNC’s AI-accelerated content development toolset to produce fleet-consistent training materials at pace.
Compliance and regulatory alignment
Maintain and execute against the training requirements matrix; support compliance training delivery, NANTeL reciprocity, and training records that meet NQA-1 quality requirements.
Support licensed operator training and requalification program design consistent with 10 CFR Part 55 and NUREG-1021, including continuing training cycle tracking and evaluation.
Maintain export-control (10 CFR Part 810) awareness in the development and transfer of design-specific technical content.
Qualification tracking and program administration
Administer qualification and requalification tracking tools an
