Description
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.
CFS is currently looking for a Systems Engineer, who will focus on implementation of Systems Engineering process and systems thinking to subsystems that form the core of the SPARC & ARC tokamaks, as well as to Diagnostic systems that analyze and interpret SPARC & ARC plasmas. This role is inherently cross-disciplinary, and will require collaboration with a wide variety of stakeholders to ensure that systems are designed, integrated, and operated successfully. The Systems Engineer will support the wider tokamak Systems Engineering team, working on activities throughout the development lifecycle, including requirements development, interface definition, trade studies, risk assessment and management, operational concept/control architecture development, test planning, etc. The ideal candidate for this role is comfortable with learning a variety of new technical topics and being proactive to apply that knowledge to ensure that tokamak system development and implementation is successful in validating the current SPARC mission and future ARC programs.
This team member will:
- Elicit, decompose, and establish traceability of system requirements in the IBM DOORS Next Gen database
- Coordinate, define, and control interfaces between tokamak systems and tokamak interfacing systems
- Conduct trade studies to drive/coordinate technical decision making. Present proposals for decision closures to the appropriate level of management
- Conduct risk assessments on tokamak systems using failure modes analysis software and methods, and ensuring that risk mitigation plans are developed and implemented
- Manage changes affecting tokamak system technical baseline for impact to scope, schedule, cost, performance, or interfacing systems
- Support design review content development and the review of other design reviews for technical maturity, consistency, and accuracy
- Develop test plans for and document evidence against requirements verification and validation
- Develop requirement/risk informed testing and commissioning plans
- Develop and manage model based systems engineering artifacts for multiple CFS programs using Cameo Enterprise Architecture
The ideal candidate will have most, if not all, of these requirements:
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Engineering, Physics, or a related field
- 1-3 years of experience in Systems Engineering or related roles; applicable internships and coursework considered
- Exposure to and understanding of Systems Engineering life cycle processes
- General knowledge of mechanical, electrical, I&C, and industrial concepts with the ability to learn and apply new technical concepts
- Strong interpersonal and technical communication skills, with the ability to proactively engage and communicate with a wide range of stakeholders
Additional experience and/or qualifications:
- Some working knowledge of large, integrated and complex systems, preferably fusion, energy, aerospace, defense, transportation, etc.
- Experience with any of the following is beneficial: electro-mechanical systems (such as magnets), insulation/electrical breaks, high heat flux components, cryogenic piping and pressurized components, radiation/vacuum environments and testing, and/or vacuum feedthroughs
- Ability to occasionally lift up to 50 lbs
- Ability to perform activities such as stooping, climbing, typing, standing, and sitting for extended periods of time
- Work in a facility that contains industrial hazards including heat, cold, noise, fumes, strong magnets, lead (Pb), high voltage, high current, pressure systems, and cryogenics
- Willing to occasionally travel or work required nights/weekends/on-call
