Proxima Fusion
This role involves shaping the architecture of a first-of-a-kind stellarator fusion power plant by integrating complex engineering challenges across physics, magnets, and cryogenics. The incumbent will close the loop between high-level architecture and detailed engineering design, utilizing first-principles estimates and simulation tools to optimize performance and cost. Success requires making actionable decisions on system-level trade-offs to drive the development of commercial fusion energy.
Proxima Fusion is Europe’s fastest-growing fusion startup, building the first generation of fusion power plants using quasi-isodynamic (QI) stellarators. They combine stellarator optimization, high-temperature superconducting magnets, and advanced computational design, drawing on decades of magnetic confinement fusion research and experience from the W7-X IPP program. Their Stellaris program advances scalable, robust stellarator concepts designed to deliver grid-scale fusion energy with a clear path to commercialization. The company aims to power the future with clean, safe, abundant fusion energy across Europe.
