  • You'll get to join and learn from an exceptional selection of accomplished and driven individuals

  • Do your life’s best work and enjoy the journey

  • Get to show that big things are possible in Europe when you assemble the best talent

WHAT YOU WILL DO

  • Develop and run multiphysics simulations for various stellarator subsystems such as magnets, support structures, and plasma heating systems.

  • Integrate models in our stellarator simulation stack.

  • Evaluate engineering concepts across multiple domains, including electromagnetism, structural mechanics, and thermal propagation.

  • Generate parametric CAD models for stellarator components.

  • Identify simulation-driven risks and opportunities, recommending design adjustments and optimizations.

WHO YOU ARE

  • Motivated by solving complex, interdisciplinary engineering challenges.

  • Experienced with multiphysics simulations in advanced technology fields.

  • Experienced with software engineering and proficient in Python.

  • Hold a degree in engineering, physics, computational science, or a related technical field.

  • Eager to expand your expertise across various physics domains.

  • Comfortable with uncertainty, iterative processes, and innovation-driven environments.

INTERVIEW PROCESS

  • Recruiter Interview (30-60 min)

  • Technical Screening (30 min)

  • Technical Panel (3x60 min)

  • CEO call (30 min)



At Proxima Fusion, our mission is bold: making limitless clean energy a reality. To get there, we need a high-performing, diverse team that brings different perspectives, challenges assumptions, and builds together with purpose. We know that diversity of thought and experience leads to better ideas, stronger execution, and a more resilient team. We don’t look at how you identify, what you look like, who you choose to worship or what ethnicity you are. We care about what you can bring to the table.
