There has not been a nuclear accident in Russia itself, but on April 26, 1986, when Russia was part of the Soviet Union, a very bad nuclear accident happened in Chernobyl, Ukraine, which neighbors Russia. Radiation was spread all over Europe and North Africa. Winds at the time carried nuclear material west, towards the more densely populated area of Europe. Many people died because of the long term effects of the radiation, and cancer rates spiked in the next few years. Many deformed babies were born in neighboring countries. Belarus was hit particularly bad, with many radiation poisonings.
Tokaimura nuclear accident happened in 1997.
Idiomatically, an accident waiting to happen is a situation which is almost certain to eventually lead to an accident.

Nuclear engineering is a job, but I suppose you mean their duties and responsibilities. Nuclear engineers perform a wide range of activities in their field. They dispose of nuclear waste created by nuclear energy, create machines like x-rays and MRI's that can help diseases, stimulate a nuclear accident so that it won't happen in real life, and also work on ways to make energy more efficient.
If there is an accident in a nuclear power station, it could lead to a release of radioactive materials into the environment, posing health risks to nearby populations and the environment. This could result in long-term effects on human health, necessitate evacuation of the affected area, and require extensive cleanup and remediation efforts.
