The Role The Radiation Physics and Shielding Department has overall responsibility for the design and safety assessment of the Secondary Shielding on all UK Royal Navy nuclear submarines. The department has the capability to assess the performance of shield designs and to validate for design, manufacture, and installation. Radiation Physics and Shielding ensure that radiation doses to submarine crews are As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP) and within prescribed limits and objectives. The solution required must meet both the ship safety requirements as well as the radiological safety criteria set out by the programme. This is achieved by modelling the nuclear reactor radiation hazard and calculating radiation levels throughout the submarine. Bespoke optimisation software is then run on high performance computing systems to design a radiation shielding system that ensures that both dose and system weight are minimised. To complement the design capability of the department, Radiation Physics and Shielding has extensive experience in the experimental validation of submarine secondary shielding and various other situations where radiation is present. BAE Systems - Submarines is contractually obliged to perform radiation surveys to demonstrate that the shield has been constructed and functions in accordance with the design intent. Measurements performed during commissioning provide a baseline for the performance of the radiation shield. Shield surveys provide an opportunity to perform detailed measurements that may be compared with calculated values and provide data that may be used to validate calculation processes. Key Accountabilities & Deliverables: The key activities undertaken by the Radiation Physics and Shielding department include, but are not limited to: Pressurised Water Reactor (PWR) Radiation Hazard Definition Neutron Radiation Transport Calculation Gamma Radiation Transport Calculation Submarine Occupancy Modelling Optimisation of Dose in the Submarine Environment System Design And Integration Management of Transverse Radiation Levels Shielding System Delivery Radiological Safety Consultancy Radiation Damage to Electronics Consultancy Finite Element Analysis Nuclear Activation Analysis Reactor Accident Consequence Analysis Software Maintenance and Development Network and HPC System Administration Design, Logistics and Management of Shield Survey Undertaking Shield Survey Radiation Detector Design Security Requirements: SC This role will require the person to hold full Security Clearance (SC) prior to working onsite. You will need to obtain a BPSS check as part of this process. You must currently hold or be eligible and willing to obtain SC and you must be eligible to work in the UK without sponsorship and have lived and worked in the UK for a minimum 5 year period. If you are unsure as to whether you are eligible, please contact me to discuss. This role is for UK EYES ONLY The Umbrella rate quoted above is the Gross Umbrella rate (ie the rate we pay to the Umbrella Company inclusive of ALL employment costs). Please note, the rate paid by the Umbrella will be less, as will a Limited Deemed rate or Agency PAYE rate. Please get in touch to discuss the rates via these different payment vehicles.

Background Do you have a keen interest in the rapidly evolving fusion industry but want something more hands-on and practical that will see tangible positive societal impact in timeframes measured in months rather than decades? Physics processes are rarely singular in their commercial usefulness. Since their inception Fission-born technologies have impacted our lives in a variety of far-reaching ways; spanning from nuclear medicine, plutonium RTG s powering every major space mission, and food sterilisation or mutation increasing crop yields and reducing famine. In many ways this is thanks to the movement sparked by the Atoms for Peace speech made by Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1953, which drove scientists, policy makers, and the public towards uses of fission outside of nuclear weapons. These non-power uses were enabled by fission and had a lasting positive impact on society which still endures today. Fusion is demonstrating the capacity to further these benefits well before any fusion power plant is plugged into the grid. Astral Systems is the only fusion reactor manufacturer with a tried and tested industrial pedigree. It is now well positioned to capitalise on the wide variety of markets and applications its new enhanced reactor design affords Role Overview Astral Systems is a fast-growing start-up that designs and manufactures compact fusion reactors as particle (neutron and protons) generators for fusion research and medical radioisotope generation. We are seeking a Senior Design & Production Engineer with extensive experience in designing, building and maintenance of scientific or industrial equipment, particularly in the fields of high-vacuum and high voltage systems, particle physics, radiation, fusion, and neutronics. This is a unique opportunity to work with a dynamic team in a fast-paced environment that is revolutionising the approach to commercial fusion. Job Duties & Responsibilities Inherit and quickly learn from existing design drawings, assembly procedures, patents and existing facilities, as well as work with experienced engineers to take onboard critical manufacturing know-how. Incorporate new IP into the existing design, working with the team to execute performance optimisation through new iterations. Design, build, and test experimental fusion reactors and related components, using your practical experience to refine and optimise the design. Collaborate with a team of engineers and scientists to develop innovative solutions for complex problems related to fusion and radiation technologies. Liaise with specialty component & process suppliers and mechanical machine shops Design jigs and assembly tools and develop assembly procedures Design and control instrumentation interfacing with high-voltage DC and pulsed power supplies and cooling systems Develop and implement safety procedures for handling high-voltage and radiation-emitting equipment. Troubleshoot and resolve technical issues with equipment and systems. Mentor and provide technical guidance to junior engineers and technicians. Write technical reports and present findings to the team and external partners. Hazard-Specific / Safety Critical Duties Working at height Manual handling Night working (11pm-6am) rare/unlikely Working with Ionising radiation Working with electricity (LV & HV up to 200 kV) Working with open and sealed radiation sources Requirements Bachelor's or Master's degree in mechanical, mechatronic, aerospace engineering. Experience in a related field such as the scientific instrumentation, nuclear, defence, aerospace, or space industries. At least 8 years of hands-on experience designing, assembling and testing complex scientific or industrial equipment within a low volume industrial manufacturing setting, with a focus on high-vacuum and high voltage systems. Experience with designing and building systems with precision engineering using the latest techniques whilst weighing costs and deadlines. Experience with high-voltage (up to 200 kV) and radiation safety protocols and regulations. Experience with interfacing automation & control programs and graphical user interfaces such as LabView. Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work independently and as part of a team. Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
