Mechanical Engineer – Diagnostics

By joining us you will be:

• Solving one of the most complex technological challenges known to humanity harnessing Fusion on Earth
• Part of a highly purpose-driven team working on providing the world with clean safe and abundant energy
• Working alongside world-leading scientists and entrepreneurs in the field of Fusion
• Part of a start-up where growth on a company and individual level is the default

As Mechanical Engineer Diagnostics you will develop precision mechanical systems and devices used in advanced laser and fusion experiments from initial concept through installation and commissioning.

You will translate scientific and diagnostic requirements into manufacturable reliable designs and take hands-on ownership of drawings supplier follow-up assembly alignment testing and troubleshooting.

• Design and develop precision mechanical components assemblies fixtures and positioning systems for optical and experimental diagnostics.
• Create and maintain 3D CAD models detailed manufacturing drawings assembly drawings bills of materials and technical documentation including GD&T and tolerance analyses.
• Select suitable materials components fabrication processes and suppliers with attention to precision cleanliness vacuum compatibility thermal stability and vibration where required.
• Coordinate manufacturing and procurement review supplier drawings and quotations resolve fabrication issues and inspect delivered components against specifications.
• Plan and perform mechanical assembly alignment integration and functional testing of diagnostic equipment in laboratories and experimental facilities.
• Support on-site installation commissioning troubleshooting and design improvements in close cooperation with scientists electrical engineers and controls teams.
• Maintain configuration control design revisions verification records and clear technical handover documentation.

• Bachelors or Masters degree in Mechanical Engineering Mechatronics Precision Engineering or a related discipline.
• Practical experience designing and delivering precision mechanical devices instruments or optomechanical assemblies.
• Proficiency in 3D CAD and production drawings (preferably Autodesk Inventor or SolidWorks) including GD&T tolerance stack-ups and design for manufacturing and assembly.
• Understanding of machining fabrication materials fasteners bearings alignment methods and metrology.
• Hands-on experience supporting manufacturing mechanical assembly testing installation or commissioning.
• Ability to communicate technical requirements and coordinate effectively with suppliers and multidisciplinary teams.

• Experience with scientific diagnostics optical instruments laser facilities beamlines or experimental physics equipment.
