You'll coordinate with plasma control, physics, and engineering teams in a fast-paced fusion startup.
🎯 What You'll Do
- Refine the measurement set for ARC tokamak with plasma control and physics teams.
- Evaluate diagnostic techniques robust to thermal and radiological environments.
- Scope R&D projects for needed instrumentation technologies.
- Develop concepts, layouts, and requirements for plasma instrumentation.
📋 Requirements
- PhD in experimental plasma physics or related field.
- 5+ years experience in plasma physics or fusion research.
- Experience designing, building, and operating plasma instrumentation.
- Experience working on multi-disciplinary engineering projects.
✨ Nice to Have
- Experience with Python.
🚩 Heads Up
- Must-have requirements include industrial hazards (heat, cold, noise, fumes, strong magnets, lead, high voltage, high current, pressure systems, cryogenics).
- Willingness to travel or work nights/weekends/on-call regularly.
