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, suppliers, and many others to build the energy industry of the future.

We’re in the best position to make it happen. Since 2018, we’ve raised $4 billion of capital, making us the largest and leading 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 an Electrical Engineer

Electrical Engineer reporting to the Manager of Power System Team in the Electrical Power Distribution System (EPDS) team at CFS. Responsible for assisting and lead the coordinate electrical design projects and interface with cross-function stakeholders while ensuring a high-quality execution of design release that meets specifications and project timelines.

Execute installation and testing of complex high power electrical systems for SPARC’s pulsed and steady state power system

Develop technical requirements for vendor electrical equipment based on simulations and analysis of the SPARC power system

Develop and implement test methods and test plans to qualify newly developed electrical designs

Lead the installation, test, and operations handover for electrical designs

Lead electrical work package releases (equipment list, drawings, schematics)

Apply core electrical engineering knowledge and experience to design and improve high power systems (including but not limited to switchgear, transformers, switchboards, panelboards, reactors, semiconductor devices, cooling systems and control systems)

Develop control narratives, concept of operations, and commissioning procedures for newly developed electrical systems

Interface with SPARC cross functional teams including R&D, physics, construction, manufacturing, software, test, compliance & commissioning, etc. to ensure all requirements are met

Support vendor coordination and quote procurement

Apply best electrical safety practices & compliance standards in design and implementation

Work on advanced development to develop in-house electrical power technologies for the future of CFS

5+ years of related experience with bachelor’s degree (or) a master’s degree with 2+ years of experience with electrical distribution systems or battery based systems

Ability to work with a technical team from conception of ideas through implementation in a fast-paced environment

Proven experience working on a team while also contributing technically to engineering projects

Experience in design and implementation of power systems in the electrical power industry

Experience with Medium Voltage & Low Voltage systems (AC/DC power distribution, power conversion, energy storage solutions)

Experience with modeling, simulation and analysis backed with validation via functional testing

Excellent written and verbal communication skills, ability to conduct design reviews, organize and present results to both expert and non-technical audiences

Results driven and ability to embrace and convince stakeholders of a change in design direction in pursuit of a high-quality product release
