With 31 years of experience in the engineering field, SEIMAF has been able to establish itself around major nuclear, energy projects across Europe.

Since 1994 we are part of an industry that we love. With design as a core business, SEIMAF provide engineering and design capabilities to support her customers in various sectors.

Our human size company is a great opportunity to evolve as a collaborator personally but also professionally.

Job Description

Our UK-based Mechanical Engineering team is seeking candidates with experience of either lifting/handling or waste in a nuclear or other regulated industry.

If you’re looking to boost your career and enrich your portfolio with new projects like Hinkley Point C and Sizewell C, we invite you to join us.

KEY INFORMATION:

The focus of the work is the Turbine Hall Crane and Polar Crane and the responsibilities will be: delivering manufacturing support for the new equipment; commissioning on site after installation; and the provision of safety case support through this process.

  • 3 Engineers to support Lifting and Mechanical Handling.
  • Have a minimum of baseline security vetting.

Location: close to the HPC / Bristol / Gloucester areas are preferred.

SCOPE – LIFTING

  • Delivering manufacturing support for the new equipment.

During manufacture, the engineers will be responsible for ensuring that all equipment being produced is in accordance with British regulations and has the required safety case validation to support this.

Requests for change will be handled to ensure that the design intent is maintained through any deviation requests; Non-conformances will similarly be reviewed to ensure the continuity of baseline design requirements through the rectification of any issues.

  • Commissioning on site after installation:

Commissioning support is required to ensure that the operational system meets all the original requirements. This will include;

-Verification that the commissioning documentation is to the right standard and contains a demonstratable golden-thread from the original requirements through to the testing plans.

-Reviews are expected on a sample of the documentation, rather than on a 100% basis.

-Sentencing of commissioning non-conformances and the oversight of solutions to maintain design intent.

-On site support for periods during commissioning to enable expedited responses.

-On site commissioning at HPC is planned for 2027.

  • Provision of safety case support through this process.

The engineers will have a responsibility to ensure that the safety case is adhered to, and any amendments required are identified to allow completion.

SCOPE – WASTE

Engineers are required that are experience in the mechanical handling of waste materials

Why Edge Computing Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

For years, computing innovation was focused on the cloud. But as demand for real-time analytics, low-latency processing and secure local data handling grows, edge computing has become the next frontier. From autonomous vehicles to healthcare monitoring devices, retail checkout systems to industrial IoT, edge computing is transforming how data is processed and used in the UK. This shift has also changed what it means to work in the field. Edge computing careers are no longer purely technical. They now require knowledge of law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design, as professionals must consider regulation, human behaviour, communication & usability alongside engineering. In this article, we’ll explore why UK edge computing careers are becoming more multidisciplinary, how these five fields intersect with edge roles, and what job-seekers & employers need to know to thrive in this evolving landscape.

Edge Computing Team Structures Explained: Who Does What in a Modern Edge Computing Department

Edge computing is expanding rapidly in the UK, driven by demands for low latency, on-site processing, IoT proliferation, autonomous systems, 5G, AI inference on devices, and regulatory pressures for data sovereignty. Businesses in sectors such as telecoms, industrial automation, retail, smart cities, autonomous vehicles, and healthcare are pushing computation and intelligence closer to where data is generated. But to design, build, deploy, secure, and maintain edge computing systems requires more than just hardware or software — it requires structured teams with clearly defined roles and responsibilities. If you’re hiring, or applying for roles via EdgeComputingJobs.co.uk, understanding who does what in a mature edge computing department will help you plan better, show relevance in job applications, and build resilient teams. This article covers the key roles in edge computing teams, how they collaborate through the project lifecycle, what skills and qualifications UK employers usually expect, salary benchmarks, challenges and trends, and best practices for structuring effective edge teams.

Why the UK Could Be the World’s Next Edge Computing Jobs Hub

Edge computing is one of the most important technological shifts of the decade. As connected devices, sensors, and the Internet of Things (IoT) generate massive volumes of data, centralised cloud computing alone cannot always keep up. Businesses and governments need faster processing, lower latency, and secure, real-time insights. Edge computing—where data is processed closer to where it is generated—is the answer. From autonomous vehicles and smart cities to advanced healthcare and industrial automation, edge computing underpins the next wave of digital transformation. For professionals, this means an entirely new field of opportunity. Edge computing requires engineers, architects, analysts, cyber security specialists, and operations staff with highly specialised skills. The United Kingdom is particularly well-positioned to become a global edge computing jobs hub. With its strong infrastructure, thriving tech ecosystem, leading universities, and government commitment to digital innovation, the UK has many of the ingredients necessary to lead. This article explores why the UK could claim global leadership in edge computing careers, the sectors driving demand, and what must happen to make this vision a reality.
