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 are designing and building commercially viable fusion power plants. Since 2018, we have raised nearly $3 billion in capital and are the leading private fusion company in the world.

As a Lead Technician on the Assembly Team at CFS, you will oversee and organize small technician teams to conduct all assembly activities to construct the SPARC Tokamak. This includes 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 into a tightly integrated central device.

You will use extensive experience building and handling large equipment, structures, or plant systems to facilitate efficient, high-quality completion of SPARC. You will organize day-to-day work orders per schedule, assign technicians, provide shift briefs and hand-offs, and guide all activity in the assembly work areas. You will collaborate with engineers, metrology, quality, and other team members to ensure correct and precise completion of components and to identify and resolve issues during the build process.
