Company Overview
Blue Energy is transforming how nuclear power gets built. Instead of constructing each plant on-site from scratch - a process that takes 10-15 years and is too expensive and unpredictable to finance - we build our plants like ships: in a factory, on an assembly line, then transport and assemble them at the site. This cuts costs by over 60% and brings plants online in just three years. We also pair natural gas with nuclear at our sites, so customers can start receiving power from gas turbines right away and then switch over to clean nuclear power once it comes online - getting energy to the grid faster while nuclear is being built. Our mission is to make nuclear energy abundant, affordable, and repeatable at global scale. We use proven, already-approved reactor designs and work with existing nuclear and industrial sites, giving us a faster path to regulatory approval. By manufacturing this way, we put nuclear power on the same cost-reduction curve that has made wind, solar, and batteries cheaper every year.
Role Summary
The Modularization Manager is a senior engineering and construction leadership role, accountable for developing and executing the project-wide modularization and pre-assembly strategy for Blue Energy's Combined Cycle Gas Turbine (CCGT) and Small Modular Reactor (SMR) power plant. The role owns all modular scope from early design collaboration through fabrication, transportation, and site installation, with the goal of reducing on-site construction risk, compressing the schedule, and improving craft labour productivity and safety.
The role is embedded in the owner's integrated project team and works across the EPC contractor, NSSS supplier, turbine island contractors, and balance-of-plant engineers. The successful candidate will draw on best practices from petrochemical, offshore, and advanced manufacturing to deliver a world-class modularization programme.
Key Responsibilities
-
Modularization Strategy & Planning
-
Develop and own the project-wide modularization execution plan, covering module types (structural, mechanical, electrical, piping, I&C), boundaries and interfaces, fabrication strategy, and site integration sequencing.
-
Conduct feasibility assessments and benefit analyses for all major plant systems including reactor island, turbine hall, HRSGs, feedwater, electrical/I&C, and balance-of-plant.
-
Establish module-size optimization criteria balancing fabrication efficiency, transportation constraints (road, rail, barge), and site installation capability.
-
Develop and maintain the Modularization Design Basis Document in alignment with project codes, NRC regulations, and owner requirements.
