Job Description
Ready to lead engineering excellence at one of Europe’s largest infrastructure projects? Want to shape the future of nuclear energy and help Britain achieve net zero? At EDF, Success is Personal – and with us, your career journey is yours to shape.The OpportunityAs an Equipment Seismic Engineer within Nuclear Services, you’ll play a key role in supporting the technical management and acceptance of design deliverables for mechanical equipment qualification under accident conditions. You’ll focus specifically on seismic and hazard-related requirements, ensuring designs meet rigorous safety and performance standards.This is a hybrid role based at #AtlanticQuay (Glasgow) or #GloucesterBusinessPark. This is your chance to work at the forefront of nuclear safety, collaborating with design, delivery, and review teams to assess, validate, and approve equipment qualification, helping ensure nuclear projects operate safely and reliably.Who You AreWe’re looking for an Equipment Seismic Engineer who’s proactive, technically minded, and safety-focused. Do you offer…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.To be appointed to this role, you will need to meet the criteria for Security Vetting, which will, ordinarily, require you to have been a resident of the UK for at least three of the past five years. What You’ll Be DoingSupporting 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).Pay, Benefits and CultureAlongside a competitive salary, potential for an annual bonus, and a market-leading pension scheme, your package will include customisable benefits such as electric vehicle leasing, discounted gym membership, life assurance, tech vouchers, experience days, and more.At EDF, we believe there are multiple definitions of what it means to succeed.
