Power Plant Systems Modelling Engineer
Geneva
Integration Team /
Full time /
On-site
Founded in 2019, Transmutex aims to reinvent nuclear energy/medicine/waste recycling by using an accelerator-driven system (ADS) to optimize the transmutation of long-lived nuclear waste. The innovative combination of particle accelerators and Thorium fuel based on existing long-lived radioactive waste allows to generate energy intrinsically safe and recycle the stockpile of long-lived waste in a proliferation-resistant way.
We’re seeking a skilled systems engineer to drive nuclear power plant design development through cutting-edge modelling, architecture design, and digital twin creation. Tasks include system simulations using tools like Modelica and SysML-based system modelling.
Key Responsibilities:
- Review, improve, and verify the digital plant model, including all its components, and accurate integration of the primary and secondary systems with the Balance of Plant.
- Develop subsystem models and integrate them into a cohesive plant simulation model
- Perform system analysis using Modelica-based tools
- Analyse data and simulation results to assess the performance of reactor and the plant, detect anomalies, and propose improvements to optimize their operation.
- Work in close collaboration with the I&C team
- Contribute to the development of a plant-scale digital twin
- Develop and maintain comprehensive user guides and documentations for the system models, produce internal technical notes on the system model analysis
- Perform system functional analysis and elicit requirements for the reactor components
- Define system architecture
- Model reactor system in SysML language
- System interface management
Requirements
The candidate we are looking for must have:
- University degree in engineering or master’s in physics
- Knowledge of fluid mechanics and thermodynamics in nuclear or process engineering
- 5+ year of experience in relevant fields
- Experience in system analysis using Modelica or similar codes
- Ability to work collaboratively in a multicultural and multi-disciplinary team
- Excellent communication and documentation abilities in English, proficiency in French, German or Italian is a plus
Additionally, it will be an advantage if the applicant has:
- University degree related to power plant engineering
- Knowledge of systems engineering processes
- Certifications related to systems engineering (INCOSE), requirements elicitation or systems modelling
- Experience with MBSE systems modelling languages
Apply by January 31, 2025.
