Job Description
About Commonwealth Fusion Systems:
Commonwealth Fusion Systems is on a mission to deliver the urgent transition to fusion energy.
Combining decades of research top talent and new technologies were designing and building commercially viable fusion power plants. And working with policymakers and suppliers to build the energy industry of the future.
Were in the best position to make it happen. Since 2018 weve raised over $2 billion in capital more than any other fusion energy company in the U.S.
Now were looking for more thinkers doers builders and makers to join us. People wholl bring new perspectives solve tough problems and thrive as part of a team.
If thats you and this role fits we want to hear from you.
Join the power movement as a Senior Process Engineer Fueling Systems
CFS is well into the construction phase of our Smallest Possible Affordable Robust Compact (SPARC) fusion machine that will demonstrate commerciallyrelevant fusion power. In parallel we are advancing the design of our first electrical powerproducing fusion device: ARC. The senior process engineer will help manage the installation commissioning and performance verification of SPARC fueling systems and will also contribute to the concept development of various systems for ARC including cooling water thermal management and the fuel cycle. This role will be very crossfunctional collaborating with various teams across CFS from R&D to construction to operations. In supporting SPARC the senior process engineer will work with our construction contractors equipment suppliers and CFS commissioning software and safety teams to bring high purity gas mixing distribution and analysis systems on line and ready for SPARCs first plasma.
With 400 MWe output many of ARCs subsystems will have similar scale to existing commercial power plants. The senior process engineer will estimate plantwide thermal and process gas loads and propose suitable ventilation thermal management systems cooling water and other system designs.
Applicants with handson experience with gas handling / processing and vacuum systems and a track record of delivering deployable technologies are preferred. Experience designing for high radiation or high magnetic field environments high temperature heat transfer systems or gas separation processes is a plus as well as experience with flammable and toxic gases.
