This is a rare opportunity to work at the forefront of one of the most strategically significant engineering programmes in Australia's history.
KBR Infrastructure Solutions Australia, in partnership with Frazer-Nash Consultancy, is seeking experienced Nuclear Safety Case Engineers to join Australia's largest industry team of Nuclear Suitably Qualified and Experienced Personnel (NSQEP). This is not routine infrastructure work — it is nation-building engineering of the highest order.
Under AUKUS Pillar 1, Australia is on a defined path to acquiring and operating a fleet of conventionally armed, Nuclear-Powered Submarines (NPS). Delivering that capability safely and on schedule demands world-class nuclear safety expertise — and that is precisely what our team provides.
You will work directly alongside government and defence stakeholders to deliver nuclear safety informed design processes for naval nuclear facilities and infrastructure across Australia. The work is technically demanding, nationally critical, and professionally rewarding in equal measure.
Our team has been intentionally built and now represents the deepest concentration of nuclear safety expertise in Australian industry. You would be joining — and shaping — that capability at a defining moment in its growth.
