Principal / Senior Instrumentation & Control Engineer
Company:
newcleo Closing Date: 05/01/2025 Locations: Manchester / Gloucester / London About newcleo Since launching in 2021, newcleo has quickly established itself as an innovator in the field of nuclear energy. newcleo is working to design, build, and operate Gen-IV Advanced Modular Reactors (AMRs) that are cooled by liquid lead and fueled by reprocessed nuclear waste. Through an innovative combination of existing and proven technologies, and by reviving a nuclear industry model based on the manufacture and multi-recycling of Mixed Oxide fuel, newcleo aims to close the nuclear fuel cycle while safely producing clean, affordable, and practically inexhaustible energy required for low carbon economies. With a EUR 50m group turnover in 2024, more than EUR 400m of private funding and over 70 partnerships and collaborations across the nuclear industry, the growth of the newcleo group is supported through the targeted acquisition of key companies with strong capabilities in nuclear engineering, manufacturing, and waste management. Through its workforce of over 800 highly qualified employees across France, the UK, Italy, Switzerland, and Slovakia, newcleo is not only developing and delivering the skills and services required for the group’s own ambitious project timelines, but also supporting the development of Small Modular Reactor supply chains in Europe and beyond. Overview of the role: Due to continued expansion, we are looking to speak with Instrumentation & Control Engineers at all levels of seniority (Principal / Senior / Engineer / Junior) to join our team! The roles will involve collaborating on our Lead Fast Reactor (LFR) design activities focusing on I&C (Instrumentation and Control) reactor protection systems, autonomous systems (such as radiation protection, seismic, vibration monitoring systems), special instrumentations, control rooms, and industrial simulators. Reporting to our Head of Unit, the key duties of the role include: Defining the objectives to be achieved using the System Engineering approach. Defining technical solutions during the whole V&V cycle: architectures, qualifications... Defining associated needs (methods, processes, subcontracting, collaborations). Proposing partners and subcontractors, drafting the technical parts of contracts. Planning and coordinating the progress of internal and external studies, with numerous interfaces (safety, electricity, processes, BOP, subcontractors, or partners), and leading on regular progress reporting including risks and issues management. Carrying out complex studies, writing reports and specifications. Participating in and preparing single and multidisciplinary reviews, presenting your own results & inputs/suggestions. Supporting Safety and Design Authorities, contributing to licensing strategies. Representing newcleo in expert communities (IAEA, IRSN, etc.). Promoting know-how and excellence (conferences, trade fairs, teaching). Participating in and fostering a work environment that is based upon openness, trust, communication, teamwork, empowerment, innovation, and satisfaction. This role will offer opportunities for development & progression towards management or expert activities depending on your career motivations. Is this role right for you? We would like to speak to people who have: A background & experience in I&C design of power plants within the nuclear sector. Knowledge of nuclear industry standards (IEC 61508/61513, RCC-E, ISA…) & processes (instrumentation, design, architecture). Knowledge of nuclear safety principles applied to I&C. Knowledge of System Engineering approaches (SysML, Capella…). Knowledge of Office suite and Visio. A basic knowledge or appreciation of Matlab/Simulink, Dymola, or similar. Right to work full time in the UK & can achieve a national security clearance equivalent to a BPSS standard, or higher, within a reasonable period. Please note if you meet some but not all of the requirements above, we would still be really keen to hear from you! Please note, all applications will need to be made via our online portal.
