About the Job
WHO WE ARE
At Proxima Fusion, we're driven by a bold mission – to redefine the future of sustainable energy. Our unique concept, built upon the groundbreaking W7-X stellarator and the latest advances in technology, paves the way for commercially viable fusion power plants.
What’s more, our work in stellarator optimization, powered by cutting-edge computation and machine learning, is propelling us into uncharted territories of fusion technology. New higher performance design points are unlocked by high temperature superconducting magnets.
To fully grasp this huge opportunity, we’re building a team of extremely dedicated and passionate people who come together driving something extraordinary, radically transforming technology in the world.
WHY JOIN PROXIMA FUSION
- You will get to work on some of the most complex tech challenges to bring abundant, safe, clean energy to the world.

- Get to show that big things are possible in Europe when you assemble the best talent.
YOUR IMPACT
Turn bold ideas into working reality: as our Automation & Knowledge Engineer, you’ll build the scripts, connectors, and workflows that move us to an AI-first company. For new AI workflows, you’re the one who identifies the correct APIs, creates the correct agent, wires the data, and ships the product that everyone starts using the next day.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
- Build ingestion & embedding pipelines (Python, Make.com/Zapier/n8n, CI/CD).
- Expose context-rich bots via Slack and simple web UIs.
- Replace no-code solutions with custom code only where it improves robustness.
- Automate technical reports, including those related to safety and regulatory needs.
WHO YOU ARE
- Strong background in software engineering.
- Familiarity with agentic workflow platforms.
- Demonstrated track record: e.g., built a pipeline that processed ≥1 TB/day or an automation suite that removed a team’s manual work.
- Proficiency in Python and one automation platform.
