Senior Maintenance Engineer

What we do at Blykalla

Blykalla is a Swedish deep-tech company at the forefront of the nuclear industry, pioneering the development of small modular reactors that provide clean, safe, and reliable energy. Thanks to lead-cooling, we achieve high safety in a very compact format, allowing for a simple and cost-effective design that can be mass-produced. Our unique reactor design will provide safe and green baseload energy that perfectly complements solar and wind power.

What you’ll get to do

As Senior Maintenance Engineer, you will help define how our LFR plants are kept reliable, available, and maintainable across their full lifecycle. The role combines hands-on technical work with longer-term planning, and you will help ensure that lessons from Operating Experience — both internal and from the wider nuclear industry — are systematically reflected in our maintenance program.

From Maintenance Strategy to Reliable Execution

Shape the maintenance strategy for the LFR plant, covering preventive, predictive, and corrective approaches aligned with reliability and availability targets

Carry out Reliability, Availability, and Maintainability (RAM) studies to help identify critical equipment and inform maintenance task selection

Build maintenance task lists, intervals, and procedures using structured methods such as RCM, FMEA, and condition-based monitoring

Plan outage scope, sequencing, and durations together with operations, ISI, and supply chain colleagues

Maintainability by Design & Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration

Contribute maintainability input into design (DfM) — reviewing layouts, access, handling routes, and component selection so servicing can be done safely in a lead-cooled environment

Shape the spare parts strategy, obsolescence management, and the tooling needed for maintenance activities

Work alongside the ISI lead to keep inspection and maintenance programs integrated

Support the development of CMMS structure, asset organization, and maintenance KPIs
