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.
As the Lead Electrical Technician on the Power Electronics team at CFS, you will be responsible for the receipt, setup, installation, testing and validation and commissioning support of prototype and production level Power Electronics based Converter systems and DC Battery systems at a large scale in the Power Energy Building for SPARC to produce fusion power.
You will be the central owner and know your part of the electrical equipment in and out and will be the prime point of contact for cross functional teams.
You will proactively ensure that the power electronics team will have all the tools required for the work, either procuring them off-the-shelf or quickly designing and building fixtures for use.
Collaborate with cross functional teams to determine test plan (with pass and fail criteria), test durations and prioritize to meet scope, schedule and project timelines.
This role is on-site at Devens, MA and at Somerville, MA for any prototype testing. The primary work will take place at the time of production at CFS-2 Power Building.
Daily interface with the power electronics team will open up opportunities to further technical skill set and ability to solve complex problems with various sub-systems.
CFS team members thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment and have demonstrated exceptional results through a range of different pursuits. We all tightly align with our company values of integrity, execution, impact and self-critique. As we grow, we are looking to add talented people who are mission driven and bring diverse perspectives and new ways of solving problems.
