Om tjänsten
You will own the chemistry of SEALER's fluid systems, from the molten lead in the primary loop to the water-steam chemistry on the
secondary side. You will define the chemistry envelope in which the plant operates and help develop the systems, instrumentation,
and operational strategies that keep it there.
The role sits at the intersection of chemistry and system engineering. You will work closely with our Materials team to ensure
compatibility between coolants and structural materials, and translate chemistry requirements into practical engineering solutions
for oxygen control, impurity management, water chemistry, and cover gas systems.
WHAT YOU'LL GET TO DO
- Define chemistry requirements for the primary lead loop and secondary water-steam systems, in close collaboration with the
Materials team.
- Develop the systems and instrumentation used to monitor and control chemistry, including oxygen control, impurity management,
water chemistry conditioning, and cover gas systems.
- Work with the Nuclear Waste System Engineer on chemistry-related inputs such as polonium, activation products, and impurity
streams.
WHO YOU'LL GET TO WORK WITH
You will join Blykalla's Fluid Systems Engineering Team and report to the Manager of Fluid Systems Engineering. You will work
closely with our Materials, Nuclear and Safety, and Test and Validation teams, as well as with external partners working on lead
chemistry and materials.
We are a diverse team that is passionate about our work and Blykalla.
WHO YOU ARE
You are an experienced chemist or engineer who enjoys turning complex chemistry into practical engineering solutions. You are
comfortable working across disciplines and taking ownership in an environment where both the technology and the organisation are
developing quickly.
We think the following will help you succeed in the role:
- More than 5 years of professional experience in industrial or nuclear chemistry, ideally involving coolant chemistry, corrosion
control, or high-temperature chemistry.
- Strong understanding of high-temperature chemistry, corrosion mechanisms, and interactions between coolant chemistry and
structural materials.
MERITORIOUS SKILLS:
- Prior involvement in reactor coolant chemistry for a nuclear plant (LWR primary or secondary chemistry, CANDU heavy water
chemistry, etc.).
If you are not sure that you are 100% qualified but are up to the challenge, we encourage you to apply.
LOCATION
This position is based at our office in Stockholm.
SO, WHAT DO YOU THINK?
Take the chance to work at the forefront of a new generation of nuclear power. Join Blykalla as a Nuclear Chemistry System
Engineer and help develop the systems at the heart of SEALER.
