Role Title: Senior Control & Instrumentation Engineer – Hardwired Safety Systems

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.

The Electrical, Control & Instrumentation (EC&I) function is responsible for delivering the systems that monitor, protect and control the SMR power station. Within this, Hardwired Safety Systems play a critical role in ensuring safe and reliable operation of the plant and supporting the overall nuclear safety case.

About the Role:

As a Senior Control & Instrumentation Engineer – Hardwired Safety Systems, you will provide technical expertise across the full lifecycle of Control & Instrumentation systems for the SMR programme.

You will work closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams to develop complete C&I solutions, spanning system architecture, requirements definition, subsystem design, component specification, integration, verification and validation. Applying structured systems engineering methodologies, you will support key engineering decisions and ensure designs meet functional, operational and nuclear safety requirements.

This is an exciting opportunity to work on safety‑critical systems at the heart of a ground‑breaking nuclear power station design.

We’ll Need You To:

Translate high‑level plant requirements into detailed C&I system specifications
Work with Process, Mechanical and Systems Engineers to develop integrated solutions
Assess and substantiate designs against system requirements
Ensure compliance with relevant safety and regulatory standards
Produce verification and validation plans, test strategies and evidence packages
Support the development and implementation of lifecycle policies and procedures for C&I systems
Contribute to procurement, operations and maintenance considerations throughout design development
Support safety case production and engagement with regulators and independent assessors
Manage technical interfaces across engineering disciplines and suppliers
Act as a responsible designer and intelligent customer where appropriate
Support and mentor less experienced engineers

Key Skills Required:

We know there’s no such thing as the ‘perfect’ candidate. If you meet around 75% of the criteria below, we’d love to hear from you:

Experience delivering C&I systems across the design and implementation lifecycle
Knowledge of safety‑critical or highly regulated industries such as Nuclear, Defence, Aerospace, Rail, Automotive or Oil & Gas
Experience with systems engineering methodologies, requirements management and systems integration
Understanding of safety assessments and assurance activities
Experience with protection systems, hardwired safety systems or programmable safety systems
Experience in industrial process control systems and automation
Knowledge of instrumentation systems and associated equipment
Experience with DCS, SCADA, PLC or FPGA‑based systems
Knowledge of C&I panels, junction boxes, cabling systems, installation and commissioning activities
Understanding of environmental qualification requirements such as EMI/RFI, DSEAR or ATEX
Knowledge of standards such as IEC 61508, IEC 61226 and IEC 61513
Ability to provide technical oversight and make sound engineering judgements
Strong communication, reporting and stakeholder engagement skills

Qualifications:

Degree‑qualified in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, Instrumentation, Control Systems, Mechatronics or a related discipline
Equivalent experience will also be considered
Chartered Engineer status, or working towards Chartered status, is desirable

Location:

Hybrid working with one of the following as your primary site:

Derby, Manchester or Warrington.

Salary and Package:

The salary band for this role will be between £50,650 – £66,500 dependent on the skills, values and knowledge you bring. There may be flexibility with the starting salary in exceptional cases.

Benefits include:

Bonus – Performance‑related target opportunity up to 12.5%
Benefits Allowance – £2,200 per annum for a bespoke package
Pension – 12% employer and 6% employee contributions
Holidays – 28 days (+ public holidays) with the ability to buy or sell up to 4 days
Private Medical Insurance – BUPA single cover
Life Assurance – 6× pensionable pay
Home Office Support – £250 one‑off payment for new starters

A flexible, inclusive, and supportive working environment.

A culture that values diversity, innovation, and continuous learning.

We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applications from all backgrounds. Inclusivity is important to us, and as a Disability Confident organisation, we are committed to fair, supportive, and continually improving recruitment practices that ensure everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
