Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS) has the fastest, lowest cost path to commercial fusion energy.

CFS collaborates with MIT to leverage decades of research combined with groundbreaking new high-temperature superconducting (HTS) magnet technology. HTS magnets will enable compact fusion power plants that can be constructed faster and at lower cost. Our mission is to deploy these power plants to meet global decarbonization goals as fast as possible. To that end, CFS has assembled a team of leaders in tough tech, fusion science, and manufacturing with a track record of rapid execution. Supported by the world’s leading investors, CFS is uniquely positioned to deliver limitless, clean, fusion power to combat climate change. To implement this plan, we are looking to add dedicated people to the team who treat people well, improve our work by adding multifaceted perspectives and new ways of solving problems, have achieved outstanding results through a range of pursuits, and have skills and experience related to this role.

CFS is an innovative clean energy company designing SPARC, a tokamak-style fusion power demonstrator able to achieve net energy plasmas. This demonstrator will lead to ARC, a power-plant scale fusion power generator system. SPARC includes high-temperature superconducting and copper magnets, thermal shields, cryogenic cooling systems, vacuum vessels, and plasma facing components, all of which are densely packed into a power system and are subject to large operational loads (thermal, electromagnetic, etc.). Critical to the success and performance of the device is the precise alignment and assembly of key systems and structures within the dense device assembly. Specifically, a number of these systems will require reverse engineering of their shapes using input from metrology data to match the shape of interfacing systems, so as to align and connect them in the correct location. As the Metrology Engineer, your responsibility will be ownership and management of the process from start to finish: development of the reverse-engineering workflow, collection of metrological data in the field, management of that data, easy and straightforward transfer to the part models for machining, and then organization and verification of the parts after completion and assembly. This work will be conducted for a wide variety of unique SPARC systems and structures, working within the overall precision alignment plan of SPARC managed by the Assembly Metrology Manager. This process will be key to bringing cutting-edge metrology, CAD, and machining techniques to enable CFS to build this compact fusion device in a simpler, more practical, and faster process than has ever been achieved before, paving the way for this process to be utilized and optimized in the next-generations ARC devices to enable their fast construction.

We are a fast-paced, agile, growing company that values diversity of thought and creativity, looking to apply our knowledge to pioneer a new method of energy generation for the betterment of the world. We look for people who have bold new ideas and perspectives, enthusiasm, imagination, a pioneering spirit, and a talent for execution to join us in our endeavor to create new fusion power technology that could change the world.
