We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Electrical System Architect to play a pivotal role in the development of the Rolls-Royce Advanced Modular Reactor (AMR) Electrical Power System. This is a unique opportunity to contribute to a cutting-edge nuclear programme, where you will be responsible for shaping the electrical architecture from concept through to implementation. Working within a dynamic and forward-thinking team, you will help define system requirements, oversee critical technology development, and engage with key stakeholders including regulators, suppliers, and customers.
