Were in the best position to make it happen. Since 2018 weve raised nearly $3 billion in capital making us the largest and leading private fusion company in the world.
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 Staff Quality Engineer - Dimensional Manufacturing Integration
Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS) is seeking a Staff Quality Engineer to serve as the subject matter expert (SME) for dimensional management and quality strategy for our HTS Magnet production and the SPARC this high-impact role you will be the technical authority on Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) ensuring that novel first-of-a-kind designs are translated into manufacturable and verifiable hardware.
The Staff role will be the technical authority responsible for taking good enough prints and collaborating with Manufacturing Engineering to develop the inspection infrastructure tooling and process controls required to build them. You will serve as the expert in applying GD&T to real-world fabrication challenges ensuring that the SPARC project meets its mission through pragmatic risk-informed quality solutions.
What youll do:
- Manufacturing-Driven GD&T Interpretation:
- Take complex design requirements and work directly with Manufacturing Engineers to determine how to achieve critical tolerances using existing equipment and novel fabrication methods
- Proactive Problem Solving:
- Lead the development of risk-informed QA controls that bridge the gap between design intent and shop-floor reality to positively impact the CFS mission
- Inspection Architecture:
- Architect measurement systems and quality inspection methods specifically designed for the assembly of large metallic components moving beyond theoretical models to executable floor-level plans
- Disposition Leadership:
- Provide high-level leadership in dispositioning Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs) focusing on use-as-is or rework justifications based on structural integrity and functional requirements
- Process Stabilization:
- Regularly analyze manufacturing data using control charts and process capability studies to identify where the build is diverging from the print escalating insights to Operations to drive immediate process adjustments
- Sub-system Integration:
- Facilitate the creation and execution of PFMEAs and Quality Plans for the installation of sub-systems ensuring that assembly tolerances are managed as the SPARC project scales
- Measurement System Analysis (MSA):
- Lead advanced MSA and Gage R&R studies to ensure that the methods used to measure novel designs are statistically sound and repeatable in a production environment
- Mentorship & Oversight:
- Provide technical coaching to QC Inspectors and Quality Engineers specifically regarding GD&T interpretation on the shop floor

- ISO 9001-2015 Six Sigma Statistical Process Control (SPC) Process Capability Analysis PFMEA Measurement System Analysis (MSA) APQP
- GD&T and Metrology
- Knowledge of cryogenics
- Minitab or JMP MS Excel (including VBA) MS Visio
- Excellent communication and organization skillsGD&T and Metrology Knowledge of NDE (non-destructive evaluation) methods including dye penetrant ultrasonic eddy current and x-ray
Bonus points for:
- Hardware Assembly: Extensive experience with the assembly of large metallic components welding processes and Nondestructive Testing
- Statistical Tools: Proficiency in Minitab or JMP for conducting Process Capability Analysis and Six Sigma methodologies
Must-have Requirements:
- Ability to occasionally lift up to 50 lbs
- Willingness to travel or work required nights/weekends/on-call occasionally
- Perform activities such as stooping climbing typing standing or sitting for extended periods of time
- Work in a facility that contains industrial hazards including heat cold noise fumes strong magnets lead (Pb) high voltage high current pressure systems and cryogenics
