The Oak Ridge National Laboratory seeks to hire a Quality Assurance and Regulatory Affairs Manager. The position is in the National Isotope Development Center (NIDC), reporting to the NIDC manager. The NIDC serves as an interface with the isotope user community and coordinates isotope production across numerous program facilities (including ORNL) for the U.S. Department of Energy Isotope Program (DOE IP). The management function is responsible for development, implementation, and maintenance of an integrated quality assurance system for the DOE IP. The position works directly with the DOE IP site headquarter managers to develop, implement, and maintain quality systems that meet regulatory, operational, and customer specifications for all stable and radioisotope products produced at the multiple sites. The approved QA systems shall encompass the product life-cycle beginning with specifications in the NIDC catalog and ending with a certified product at the time of delivery to the customer. The QA Specialist shall be responsible for providing guidance on compliance with the applicable quality assurance regulations at the DOE IP sites and shall participate in audits conducted by regulatory authorities and customers.

ORNL is investing in our nuclear facilities to ensure the directorate goals are met and strategies are executed. To support and protect our assets we are hiring a Nuclear Facility CMMS Specialist. This role will drive asset management process improvement, evaluate, and monitor data quality, assist with compliance audits, develop, and publish section key performance indicators (KPI’s), provide CMMS training oversight, and populate all master data with correct hierarchical structure and taxonomy. A successful candidate in this technical role will utilize specialized knowledge in nuclear facilities, CMMS functions, data management, and report generation.
Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is seeking a senior technical leader for our world class radioisotope production program. Supporting the largest radioisotope production and research portfolio within the Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science for Isotope R&D and Production, this position will grant you the opportunity to work with rare nuclear materials and ensure the safe and effective execution of nuclear materials processing within nuclear and radiological facilities in the Melton Valley area of the ORNL campus.
This position as the leader of the Radiochemical Engineering Development Center (REDC) Laboratory Chemical Operations Group resides within the newly formed Isotope Processing and Manufacturing Division (IPMD) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). The IPMD is focused on the reliable delivery of radioisotope products to exacting quality standards. This work is performed within the unique facilities at ORNL, including the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR), and several radiological and nuclear facilities throughout the ORNL campus containing shielded hot cells and gloveboxes. The primary isotope manufactured within the REDC Laboratory Chemical Operations group is the Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient Ac-225, an alpha emitting isotope deployed in clinical trials for treatment of cancer. Other isotopes processed in the group include heavy actinides Bk/Es/Fm, used for research in nuclear physics and heavy element chemistry, and a variety of high purity actinides which are purified and dispensed from legacy sources.
