Dominion Engineering, Inc. is Looking for MechEs

Dominion Engineering Inc. (DEI) provides expert consulting, R&D, and equipment design for the nuclear power industry.  From supporting currently operating reactors to advanced reactor designs, and nuclear waste management to nuclear thermal propulsion and cogeneration applications, we believe that nuclear energy is essential for deep decarbonization to tackle climate change and for continuing to advance the boundaries of scientific exploration – and we are passionate about being a part of the technical solution.  DEI’s primary asset is its staff, with a healthy mix of senior and younger personnel with expertise in mechanical, chemical, and materials science. Projects often include laboratory investigations, technical report writing, hardware and product design, computer simulations, custom software development, and theoretical modeling. We have been working with utilities, government agencies, national labs, other engineering firms, and private contractors for over 40 years with a focus on maintaining technical quality, client satisfaction, and a dynamic and fulfilling work environment.

We seek top students who desire a technical career path, and who are motivated, creative, and adaptable. Success at DEI requires not only the aptitude to perform detailed engineering work, but also interface with clients and communicate effectively. We believe that with the support our other staff provide, you can become an industry expert. DEI engineers often work on up to a dozen projects at once. This keeps work varied, allows us to maximize each of our individual talents, and allows each person to develop expertise in new areas. Our compensation is extremely competitive, because we believe that you should be paid for the value you provide. We provide mentoring, technical resources, and our open-door atmosphere allows you to learn from other industry experts as you find what problems you are passionate about solving.

Looking for Short Term Engineering & Translating Assistance from Mandarin to English.

We are building a state of the art grain cleaning and processing facility in Penn Yan, NY using equipment from the Lushan Win Tone Company in Henan Province, China.  The cleaning line will consist of a traditional screen cleaner, a magnetic sorter, a destoner, a gravity table, a polisher, an optical sorter, a size grader, and packaging equipment.  This line will be used to clean and prepare grains and beans for human consumption and use as seed.

The manufacturer is sending 2 technicians to assist with assembly.  One will be a general millwright overseeing the whole project, the second will specialize in optical sorting technology and will set up commission that part of the project.  We have been asked to hire a person who is capable of translating from English to Mandarin to assist with communication between us and the technicians.

We are looking to hire an individual who is able to do this either in person or through Whatsapp or Wechat.  It is important that this person posses some technical vocabulary and good Mandarin and English skills so that complex ideas about the machinery can be understood.
