About the Opportunity
Are you a talented and ambitious individual looking to further your career in Reactor Physics/Radiation Transport?
Jacobs is currently recruiting for a Monte Carlo methods developer to join a cutting-edge development team for simulation of Radiation Transport/ Reactor Physics. This will involve methods and software development, to support the theoretical development of our software and nuclear data products, perform complex technical analyses and deliver technical training.
The nuclear industry is moving away from traditional reactor designs towards new small modular reactor (SMR) and advanced modular reactor (AMR) designs, with improved safety features and lower build costs. The medical world is using new radiation therapies, such as proton beam therapy, to treat complex cancers. These new concepts bring exciting new modelling challenges requiring the introduction of innovative new mathematics, physics, engineering and software engineering techniques.
We are looking for an enthusiastic and innovative physicist, with experience of Monte Carlo simulation, to work in a variety of technical teams performing analysis work for a broad range of established and cutting-edge reactor designs and or clinical treatments.
This role will present excellent opportunities for the continual development of skills and experience in physics, particularly as applied to radiation transport, including nuclear engineering and medical applications; also, the potential to lead technical developments and collaborations, and the teams responsible for their implementation.
Key Responsibilities:
This role will be based at our Dorchester office with the opportunity to travel to client sites, conferences and workshops etc. as required. Some home / remote working is also available, and consideration will also be given in respect to part time & flexible working hours.
