It will then be a condition of your employment that you continue to undergo and pass these regularly during your employment . Please make yourself familiar with what DESNZ and these NSV require before you apply for this role. For example, please be aware that the NSV checks are quite intrusive and far reaching including a review of your financial circumstances and the scope potentially expands into your immediate family in addition to your own personal circumstances. Further information can be found on the gov.uk advice page here. In particular, please note that for NSV clearance for this role, DESNZ requires you to demonstrate that you are currently resident within the UK and have been for a continuous minimum of 5 years. If, in making your application to us for this role, you cannot demonstrate this DESNZ 5 year minimum UK residence requirement, we will not be able to progress your application and it will be automatically rejected.\nRWE is part of the vital infrastructure. Therefore, we screen all our new employees, to the extent that it is relevant to the position.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5534,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"master","optional":true},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":false}]},"benefits":["Annual leave","Car lease","Flexible schedule","Parental leave","Retirement plans"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United Kingdom","iso":"GB","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":true,"industries":["Energy Storage","Solar Energy","Wind Energy"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-20T01:06:56Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":5,"expected_fill_days":22,"reasons":["conf:3","velocity","win:early","comp:junior,brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-25T05:49:26Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/rwe-graduate-operational-technology-ot-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/rwe-graduate-operational-technology-ot-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-25T10:15:28Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":14780,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-26T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":45975},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=45975"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Frwe-graduate-operational-technology-ot-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Frwe-graduate-operational-technology-ot-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Frwe-graduate-operational-technology-ot-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/rwe-graduate-operational-technology-ot-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Frwe-graduate-operational-technology-ot-engineer"}]}
