Equipment Seismic Engineer within Nuclear Services ensuring mechanical equipment meets seismic and hazard-related requirements. Collaborating with teams to validate and approve equipment qualification in nuclear safety.
Responsibilities
Supporting the EQ Lead in coordinating NNB’s mechanical equipment qualification activities, with a focus on seismic conditions.
Reviewing and accepting EQ strategies, programmes, and Qualification Summary Reports, ensuring technical and regulatory compliance.
Performing seismic assessments of structures, systems, and components, including hazard assessments and walkdowns.
Determining appropriate qualification methods (testing, analysis, similarity, or experience) based on equipment complexity, cost, and lifecycle considerations.
Managing suppliers and physical qualification testing, including shaking table tests, required response spectra (RRS), and application of relevant international standards.
Reviewing complex numerical analyses, including finite element analysis (FEA), for large or non-testable equipment, ensuring accurate modelling assumptions.
Developing and analysing envelope response spectra for buildings and zones using seismic models.
Using historical earthquake data, test results, and analytical evidence to demonstrate seismic adequacy across key equipment areas (Pumps, Valves, HVAC, Diesel Generators, EC&I).
Requirements
Strong knowledge of UK good practice, codes, standards, and regulatory requirements for Equipment Qualification under accident conditions.
Expertise in mechanical component design, operation, and seismic qualification.
Experience applying risk assessment methods and Safety Case principles across the project lifecycle.
Degree in Mechanical Engineering and membership of a relevant professional body.
Engineering experience in a nuclear environment, including accidental Equipment Qualification.
Excellent communication skills, able to explain complex technical concepts in plain English.
Ideally have familiarity with PWR nuclear systems, RSS, and international EQ standards.
Experience with component testing, lifetime management of mechanical plant, or Teamcenter Engineering would be desirable.
Meet the criteria for Security Vetting, which will require you to have been a resident of the UK for at least three of the past five years.
