At EDF, Success is Personal. The story of energy is changing, and so are the opportunities to shape Britain's future. Join us at #HPC as an I&C Engineer and help bring one of the UK's most important low‑carbon energy projects to life. You'll work on complex technology, solve real engineering challenges and see the impact of your work every day.

The Opportunity

Hinkley Point C is helping deliver An Electric Britain. As an I&C Engineer, you'll join our Joint Design Office Instrumentation and Control team, helping to support commissioning and plant readiness on one of the world's most significant engineering projects.

You'll focus on modifications to the Siemens SPPA-T2000 Standard I&C platform. From assessing design changes to testing and validation, you'll play a vital role in making sure systems are safe, effective and ready for operation.

Working alongside EDF and Siemens specialists, you'll help turn engineering solutions into reality while maintaining the high standards expected within the nuclear industry.

What You'll Be Doing

• Supporting on-site modifications to the Siemens SPPA-T2000 Standard I&C platform
• Assessing how proposed changes affect hardware, software and plant operation
• Producing and updating I&C programming for AS620 Tec4, OM690, ALS and MOP applications
• Carrying out verification and validation activities
• Supporting functional testing and investigation of issues identified during testing
• Updating engineering records, diagrams and technical documentation
• Working closely with commissioning, electrical and system engineering teams
• Supporting Siemens specialists during detailed design activities
• Helping maintain accurate configuration and design control
• Highlighting risks, opportunities and delivery challenges to support project success

Who You Are

You're an engineer who enjoys solving problems, working with others and taking ownership of technically challenging work.

You'll bring:

• A degree in an engineering discipline or equivalent experience
• Experience working with complex I&C systems in an industrial environment
• Knowledge and practical experience of Siemens SPPA-T2000 technology
• A solid understanding of process signals, logic processing and alarm management
• Strong communication and organisational skills
• The ability to build effective working relationships across multidisciplinary teams
• A proactive approach, with the confidence to ask questions and challenge where needed
• A commitment to quality, safety and technical rigour

It would be great if you also have:

• Experience within nuclear, power generation or process plant environments
• Knowledge of EPR technology or EPR I&C systems
• Experience supporting commissioning, operations or maintenance activities on large industrial facilities

Location And Working Pattern

This role is based full-time on-site at #HPC.

You'll work closely with colleagues across engineering, commissioning and project delivery functions. Regular on-site presence is essential to support plant modifications, testing and commissioning activities.

Why Join Us?

For more than 60 years, nuclear power stations in the UK have been quietly keeping Britain fuelled with massive amounts of home‑grown energy.

Our teams up and down the country are proudly continuing to serve the nation – but they also have an eye on the future.

EDF is leading the UK's nuclear renaissance with the construction of a new nuclear power station at Hinkley Point C and plans for a new power station at Sizewell C in Suffolk.

Nuclear power is the most reliable, low‑carbon energy source currently available to the UK. EDF is playing a key role in the development of nuclear sites, while Hinkley Point C will provide low‑carbon electricity to meet 7% of the UK demand. The project is already making a positive impact on the local and national economy as well as boosting skills and education.

We’re not just building new nuclear power stations. We’re developing careers, upskilling generations and creating thousands of employment and apprenticeship opportunities across a variety of skills areas.

It takes a special kind of person to work in the nuclear energy industry and although we have thousands of them there’s always a need for more.

Our industry has a mind‑boggling range of opportunities and more jobs, and in more places, than you might think. But it’s also an industry which is changing.

We’re a responsible business and proud to be Britain’s biggest generator of zero carbon electricity. With size, age and experience, we believe we can do even more.
