We are Rolls-Royce SMR and we’re doing something that’s never been done before. We’re revolutionising an industry. That’s a once-in-a-career opportunity for those excited by such a challenge. This is more than just a job; this is a legacy.
We are now recruiting for the exciting role of Senior C&I Modelling and Simulation Engineer, to be involved in industry leading, cutting-edge design project for a new type of power station.
The Senior C&I Modelling & Simulation Engineer will be involved in the development, validation and verification of software simulation models of the nuclear power plant and C&I systems using suitable modelling tools, and software validation and verification techniques. The role will support the integration of simulation models within an overall simulation model architecture. The simulation model will be used to support C&I design activities and validation and verification of C&I functional requirements. The role will support the development of the modelling and simulation, and validation and verification environments, policies, procedures, and tool sets.
Key Results & What can be achieved in the role
* Planning model development work within an agile framework.
* Development of the modelling and simulation and validation and verification environments, policies, procedures, and tool sets.
* Development of simulation model architectures and integration of system component models.
* Development of models and simulations suitable for C&I design activities and validation and verification of C&I functional requirements.
* Development of models, custom code and simulations suitable for real-time and accelerated simulation of nuclear power plant and C&I systems.
* Validation of Integration of Software models into simulation model architectures.
* Liaising with other disciplines to understand functional performance capabilities of components of the system to facilitate effective C&I design.
