Quest Defense Systems and Solutions is looking for a Lead Nuclear Digital Instrumentation & Controls (I&C) IV&V Engineer to provide technical leadership for verifying and validating complex digital control systems used in the nuclear industry.

This is an engineering role—not simply a test execution position. You will determine what needs to be verified, how to test it, and what evidence is needed to demonstrate compliance. You'll work across software, hardware, firmware, FPGA, systems engineering, quality, and project teams to evaluate system performance, identify technical risks, and ensure requirements are fully verified.
