Plant Engineering · Stockholm
Blykalla is scaling quickly to industrialize our small modular reactor (SMR) concept. If you are passionate about nuclear technology and want to make a meaningful impact, join us.
What we do at Blykalla
Blykalla is a Swedish deep-tech company developing lead-cooled small modular reactors. Our compact reactor design combines high safety with a simple, cost-effective and scalable approach to delivering clean, reliable baseload energy that complements solar and wind power.
Responsibilities
- As Reliability Engineer, you will own reliability, availability and maintainability (RAM) engineering for Blykalla’s SEALER-55 lead-cooled fast reactor (LFR). You will work across assigned plant areas, systems and work packages within Plant Engineering, delivering quantitative reliability analysis that supports the plant design and the probabilistic safety assessment (PSA).
- You will establish and apply Blykalla’s RAM, FMEA and FMECA framework, ensuring reliability and availability targets are translated into design, redundancy, sparing, testing and maintenance requirements. You will assess how design and maintenance decisions affect plant availability and lifecycle performance, and support the project from design through procurement, construction and handover to commissioning and operations.
- What you’ll do
- RAM engineering and modelling
- Establish and maintain RAM, FMEA and FMECA methods, templates, criticality criteria, data sources and analysis assumptions.
- Define reliability design bases, RAM targets, modelling methodology and requirements for assigned areas.
- Build and maintain reliability block diagrams, fault trees and availability models, including Markov or Monte-Carlo simulations.
- Work in RiskSpectrum for fault-tree and PSA-aligned modelling, alongside relevant RAM tools such as ReliaSoft, Isograph, GRIF or Maros/Taro.
- Flow reliability, availability and maintainability requirements into specifications, data sheets and supplier packages.
- Analysis and techn
