Since then, we have been working with EDF ( French Electricity Producer ). We are involved in several nuclear projects, including FA3 EPR (France), the French fleet, Taishan EPR (China), Hinkley Point C and Sizewell C. We are now looking for engineers to join our Team in the UK. Our human-sized structure (100 employees worldwide) allows us to devote to mentoring and training our engineers. We take a special care to our employees’ development by ensuring them quality projects through which they will increase their skills. Our Kury values: Curiosity, Trust, Rigor, Teamwork Our team is international, our engineers are coming from different countries as we are looking for the best talents SUITABLE CANDIDATE You enjoy analising concrete problems, finding solutions and then setting them up. Getting involved in significant industrial and engineering projects involving very demanding precautions as regards industrial safety captivates you. Your good analytical skills, sense of logic, aptitude for synthesizing and your scientific knowledge will allow you to adapt quickly to multi-system environments. You have the ability to adapt to new technical problems. You know how to manage a small-sized team. You like the idea of working on Projects and Quality matters to you. You are a good team player. THE ROLE You will conduct internal studies on all the Nuclear Island buildings, to ensure that safety functions are still carried out in the event of a fire occurring within the plant and that the conventional safety requirements related to UK codes and standards are implemented. You will work in conjunction with Building Leaders, the safety team, the systems engineers, civil engineers and plant layout engineers. As a Fire Engineer, you will be in charge of the following activities: In terms of the identification of risks, you will be using the 3D model, calculation methodologies and fire requirements issued by the architect engineer or the client: Analysing the 3D model and identifying the various combustible materials present in each area, Performing temperature change calculations over time for a simulated fire (modelling of various situations using the dedicated software), Studying the risk of damage to certain systems (functional redundancy), Monitoring and including in the models the changes issued by all the engineering teams (change of positioning of cable trays, electrical cabinets, ventilation ducts, etc.), Performing regulatory assessment for fire life safety. In terms of fire protection: Recommending protection solutions to prevent an outbreak of fire or to make it improbable, Dividing all buildings into zones for fire protection purposes, Recommending fire detection and firefighting methods for the quickest possible detection and response, Performing fire protection calculations using specific software, Supports systems and contract teams to understand and implement the Fire requirements, Assessing and providing justifications for departures. During the first months, you can count on the KURY Team to assist you all along your projects. This experience will give you the opportunity to move on to other types of equipment or projects in the medium term: you will tackle varied but complementary projects, studies and technical topics. Your understanding of the technical and environmental challenges will allow you to take on complex and critical transversal studies. REQUIRED SKILLS Knowledge of ETCF: EPR technical code for fire. Experience and knowledge of UK Fire Regulations. Calculations relating to fire protection and ability to work with calculation tools. Ability to propose fire protection and detection solutions. Conscientious and good attention to detail. Enthusiastic about the subject, with good interpersonal and communication skills French-speaking would be an advantage.
