Engineering Talent Podcast #24 | Nadia Kanyike | Holding the Door Open

In this episode of the Engineering Talent Podcast, Fayon Dixon speaks with Nadia Kanyike, a planning engineer working across major UK nuclear infrastructure programmes, about building a career that has been anything but linear. Nadia shares how a business management degree led her into engineering, the realities of being a Black woman in nuclear, and why representation must go beyond visibility to real change inside companies. From mentoring young people and supporting STEM outreach to her ambition of building STEM opportunities in Uganda, Nadia’s story is a reminder that you do not need to come from a traditional engineering background to belong, contribute, and hold the door open for others.
