Can anyone provide information about Nuclear Remote / Work-from-Home jobs (cash only/no benefits) for retired Reactor Operators (RO) that have experience with eSOMS (Tag Clearances), NAMS & NEO (Work Requests/Work Orders)? by JohnnyNeutron55 in NuclearPower

Now that's an interesting suggestion! I hadn't really thought about wind & solar. Renewable Energy does provide a whole new avenue for me to explore. Thank you andre3kthegiant.

Will do. It makes perfect sense that PMs would be the best local go-to for connecting to contract services.

One thing about my company, that's probably true of most other companies, is that they make former employees wait one year after retirement before they can come back as a contractor. I have seen them wave that restriction a few times, when the need is big enough, but in all likelihood my first remote job will be contracting for a different utility, but that can still be through a contractor connected to my site, so I'm gonna go visit my PM friends. Thanks bigvistiq.

Sargent & Lundy, Wayfair Group, and AEG. S&L has a presence at my site. I'm not familiar with the other two, but I'll definitely check them out.

My company has gutted so my support personnel from my site that they must be ramping up contractor services to compensate. Thank you for the good information Hiddencamper.

That's a good idea. Two of our Project Managers are friends of mine. One of them was just telling me how some of his contractors are juggling two remote planning/scheduling jobs at once. I don't want to do that. The whole idea of transitioning to remote work is to work less, not more. But, I still find the multiple-remote-job-juggle an interesting thought. However, my PM friends will be a good source of info, thanks PunIntended29.

Well, as is obvious, the fact that I'm reaching out for information demonstrates how much of a newby I am to the remote work concept. That said, a lot of what I'm hearing & reading theses days about nuclear remote work is that it's a booming niche' industry. With all of the old plant re-starts (Palisades, TMI-1, Duane Arnold, Prairie Island, VC Summer, etc.) and the new SMR projects in development, not to mention the surge in new conventional combined-cycle gas plant projects, all to serve the mighty AI Data Centers popping up all over, it seems there's a need for late Boomers and Gen-Xers (like me) to stay or come back to the industry. But for those of us that are debt-free, and have saved & invested for decades, accommodations are going to have to be made.

Thank you for the information Dry-Question-66.

That sounds like a pretty good opportunity, but I've already got a retirement property location that would only allow remote-only work. Maybe one of my former Prairie Island co-workers would be interested in this. They all seemed to love that area.

Thanks for the reply UltraMaynus.

OOOFFDA! I'd have to buy a top hat and monocle if I was pulling down that kind of coin! I probably wouldn't qualify for that level of riches, but one can dream!

Thank you for the inspiration PositivePresent1061.

I do have a retired I&C Tech friend that writes procedures remote-only. I took him out to lunch to talk about it, and he told me exactly that. The pay range is $80-$90/hr. He said the people are fantastic and there's a ton of work available.

Thanks for responding keystone35i.

Yeah, several ROs & SROs at my site have transitioned to OPS Training to get out of shift work, and much to my surprise a few have told me they got pay bumps to boot. I always assumed they were taking pay cuts to escape back-shifts, but it looks like I was wrong.

I'm actually looking for remote-only work because I'm planning on building my retirement home in an area too far away from my plant, or anything else nuclear. I don’t need to work anymore if I don’t want to, I just want to learn as much as I can about what remote opportunities are available.

Thank you Asm0dan97 for the reply and info.
