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 an R&D Electromagnetic Analysis Engineer

The R&D teams mission at CFS is to vet potential technical solutions in order to guide the overall SPARC subsystem design and plan for the technology needs of future fusion power plants and spinoff projects. This individual within the R&D team will perform electromagnetic (EM) analysis of superconducting magnets using finite elements and other methods. This analysis includes the nonlinear anisotropic behavior of hightemperature superconductors (HTS) in both insulated and noninsulated magnet systems. Incorporating multiphysics (heat transfer fluids mechanics etc) into 3D FEA models is also crucial to modeling the multiphysics behavior of superconducting magnets. This individual will also work with a team of experimentalists and engineers to validate simulations against experimental data. Familiarity with both commercial finite element analysis software packages and developing custom inhouse code and extensions of commercial packages is necessary.

This work is conducted within a multidisciplinary team of physicists and engineers as part of collaborative sponsored research projects at the MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center and within CFS. To be successful in this role participation and clear concise communication in design and test activities is necessary to both inform design decisions and correlate models to experiment.

What youll do:

    • Perform electromagnetic analysis of superconducting magnets and inform design decisions
    • Work with experimental teams on instrumentation measurement and correlation of experiment to analysis
    • Develop new numerical tools as needed to facilitate multiobjective design optimization of hightemperature superconducting magnets
    • Ability to adapt and quickly learn new FEA tools and software
    • Perform nonlinear highlyanisotropic E&M simulations in complicated geometries
    • Identify enabling technologies in the modeling and construction of hightemperature superconducting magnets
    • Prepare reports and presentations as necessary
    • Mentor and guide new members of the team in magnet design and analysis as necessary

What were looking for:

    • At least a Masters Degree in electrical engineering or another relevant field with an EM background (physics mechanical engineering etc.
    • 5 years of experience modeling electromagnetics using finite element method
    • A strong background and theoretical understanding of computational electromagnetic analysis and physics
    • Experience modeling nonlinear physics
    • Experience with commercial finite element tools. COMSOL preferred
    • The ability to customize commercial finite element tools or develop new inhouse codes in modern programming languages such Python/MATLAB/C/C
    • Able to quickly grasp experimental setups and analyze data to validate models
    • Ability to clearly express and critique ideas
    • Ability to innovate towards solutions to complex problems
    • An emphasis on elegance and simplicity over complexity
    • A drive towards commercially viable solutions
    • A history of thriving in fastpaced dynamic environments
    • Values that align with our companys values of integrity impact and selfcritique

Bonus points for:

    • Multiphysics FEM modeling with electromagnetics heat transfer mechanics fluids structures etc.
    • Experience working with superconducting nonlinear physics
    • Developing equivalent thermal and electrical circuit models

Musthave requirements:

    • Perform activities such as sitting for extended periods of time
    • Dedication to safety to mitigate industrial hazards that may include heat cold noise fumes strong magnets lead (Pb) high voltage high current pressure systems and cryogenics

$80000 $180000 a year
