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, we’re designing and building commercially viable fusion power plants. And we're working with policymakers and suppliers to build the energy industry of the future.


We’re in the best position to make it happen. Since 2018, we’ve raised nearly $3 billion in capital, making us the largest and leading private fusion company in the world.


Now we’re looking for more thinkers, doers, builders, and makers to join us. People who’ll bring new perspectives, solve tough problems, and thrive as part of a team.


If that’s you and this role fits, we want to hear from you.


Join the power movement as Lead Technician - Assembly

As a Lead Technician on the Assembly Team at CFS, you will be responsible for overseeing and organizing the small technician teams to conduct all assembly activities to construct the SPARC Tokamak. This includes the handling, alignment, and mechanical integration of large electromagnetic coils, vacuum vessels, instrumentation systems, support structures, tooling and manipulation equipment, diagnostic systems, and superconducting cable bundles, all together into a tightly packed and highly integrated central device. You will use your extensive experience in building and handling large equipment, structures, or plant systems to facilitate the efficient and high-quality completion of SPARC. You will organize the day-to-day work orders of the day per the schedule, assign technicians to each set of work, adjust as needed from previous work or issues, give morning briefs and shift hand-off reports, and overall guide all activity in the assembly work areas. During this you will work directly and collaboratively with the engineers, the metrology group, the quality group, and many other team-members to ensure correct and precise completion of the components and identify and help resolve issues as they arise during the build process. You will work with other technicians and leads, working in a dynamic and flexible workplace that shifts focus and priority as needed to meet the schedule to complete our next-generation tokamak device.

This role is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity to use your hands-on assembly skills to accelerate the development of fusion energy by ensuring SPARC is built on time and to high quality!
