Videographer & Producer

Pacific Fusion was founded in 2023 with the mission to power the world with abundant, affordable, clean energy.

We are rapidly designing and building a pulsed magnetic fusion system to achieve net facility gain (more fusion energy output than stored energy input). In parallel, we are developing the key components required to build affordable fusion systems.

Our plans are ambitious. We have raised over $900M so far from incredible investors, resourcing us to deliver on these plans. We are bringing together the best scientists, engineers, and operators from the fusion community, hard tech industry, and other sectors. We are united by a shared sense of urgency to provide clean power for the world, particularly managing climate change while meeting growing global energy demand.

You can read more about us in this letter from our founders.

Fusion is the most important energy story of this century. Most people don’t understand it, and we hope to change that.

We are hiring our first in-house Videographer / Producer to define how Pacific Fusion shows up visually.

This is a foundational role. You will be our first visual storyteller, helping people see that what we’re building is real (and incredibly exciting).

You’ll have front-row access to fusion hardware, pulsed-power modules, manufacturing build-outs in New Mexico, and the engineers turning ignition science into infrastructure.

• Pacific Fusion develops a recognizable identity in photography and video — cinematic, precise, grounded in reality
• Our modular pulsed-power systems become easier to understand for non-experts
• We create a portfolio of milestone updates, behind-the-scenes engineering footage, recruiting stories, and strategic narratives that can be used to create a steady drumbeat of external content – or communicate our progress to specialized audiences internally
• Video becomes a primary trust-building asset for the company

• Tell the engineering story visually:
  Capture and edit high-quality video footage and still photos of pulser-driven inertial fusion systems (ie, pulsed-power modules, capacitor banks, target systems, and facility builds)
• Translate complexity into clarity:
  Turn nanoseconds, terawatts, and ignition science into accessible visual narratives
• Own end-to-end production:
  Concept, pre-production, shooting, editing, finishing, publishing
• Document milestones:
  Capture key technical demonstrations, module builds, facility groundbreakings, and commissioning moments
• Shape employer brand:
  Interview engineers, technicians, operators, and leadership to show what it’s like to build fusion
• Support executive storytelling:
  Film and produce executive thought leadership and social media (Linked In) content
• Support internal communications:
  Support internal awards and recognition with multimedia and manage company photography
• Create platform-native content:
  Short-form for social, mid-form explainers, longer documentary-style pieces for both broad and specialist audiences
• Collaborate cross-functionally:
  Be comfortable working with engineering and technical teams in addition to comms, operations and external affairs to align on narrative

• Film a pulsed-power module test in our Bay Area build center
• Fly to Albuquerque to document construction progress on the Demonstration System facility
• Edit a 90-second milestone video for investors
• Capture behind-the-scenes footage during a national lab collaboration
• Produce a recruiting spotlight on a systems engineer
• Continue building footage for a 15-min documentary

• You’re a self-starter, who manages your own time, works independently and is comfortable liaising directly with leadership/technical teams
• You see stories unfolding and instinctively start filming and/or photographing
• You’re fascinated by science and hard tech, and you’re eager to document the progress of a first-of-a-kind energy project
• You can sit in on a technical meeting in which key decisions are made and think through how to tell a complex story visually and effectively without disrupting the conversation
• You are fluent in video, photographer and editing tools and…
