Base Career helps you apply smarter for this job.
When the consequences are significant and confidence matters, industry often needs evidence. For 50 years, organisations from around the world have come to DNV’s Spadeadam R&D Centre to find those answers.
Spadeadam is one of the world’s leading major hazards R&D facilities. Our engineers, scientists and technical specialists design, build and operate unique experimental facilities that help industry understand some of its most challenging safety and resilience questions. From hydrogen and alternative fuels to high-pressure gas releases, fire and explosion hazards, pipeline safety and critical infrastructure resilience, the work undertaken here helps shape engineering practice, inform major investment decisions and improve safety around the world.
As our business continues to grow, we are looking to recruit both Engineers and Senior Engineers to join our Major Hazards R&D team.
This is not a conventional engineering role. Many engineering careers focus on applying existing knowledge. At Spadeadam, you will help create it. Our teams develop one-of-a-kind experimental facilities and undertake world-leading research programmes designed to answer questions that cannot be resolved through standards, guidance or modelling alone. We generate the evidence that helps clients make decisions with confidence.
Our work spans some of the most important challenges facing the energy, industrial and critical infrastructure sectors. Projects may include hydrogen and alternative fuel safety, high-pressure gas release studies, full-scale fire and explosion research, pipeline safety and integrity, critical infrastructure resilience, hazardous area investigations, battery energy storage systems, industrial process safety and emerging energy technologies. Our expertise is also increasingly applied to energy security, infrastructure protection and defence-related programmes.
You will become involved throughout the project lifecycle, from concept development and engineering design through construction, commissioning, testing and operation. One week you may be helping to develop a new hydrogen research facility; the next, you could be designing modifications to a high-pressure gas system, supporting the construction of a large-scale test rig, preparing for a full-scale explosion experiment or helping an international client understand the implications of complex test data. No two projects are the same, and many involve challenges that have never previously been addressed at full scale.
