Within Test & Commissioning you will be working as part of a wider team that tests and commissions the Astute & Dreadnought class submarines.

As a Nuclear Graduate, you will be working alongside qualified engineers on the Reactor Systems to support these tests that are essential for the submarine safe operation. During the graduate programme, individuals will be working towards becoming a qualified and competent commissioning engineer. Duties and Responsibilities

Working closely with the Operations build teams to verify that the systems have been installed to the appropriate workmanship quality standards. The Installations are checked for any defects and for any bespoke installation requirements such as those to facilitate commissioning tests. Carrying out system walk downs to ensure the systems conform to the installation documentation. This is an essential layer of protection to ensure the plant has been installed correctly to the design intent. Commissioning the systems by testing the system’s functionality. In the early commissioning phases this includes testing individual plant items and plant systems within boundary conditions. In the later commissioning phases the plant systems are tested as fully integrated systems as per design intent. Commissioning the plant includes flushing, pressurising, and energising the systems to check for defects, functionality, and also to check that plant operating parameters are within specification and tolerance. Achieving safety from the system by applying electro-mechanical plant isolations and dissipating any stored energy in order for the plant to be worked on safely. Skills
