  • Strong computational, experimental, or engineering skills relevant to fusion energy research.

Why Join Us

  • Contribute directly to the development of commercially deployable fusion energy systems.

  • Collaborate with a world-class team bridging public-private innovation in fusion energy.

  • Flexible work options: positions are available from 5 to 40 hours per week with competitive salary, equity, and benefits.

Compensation

Compensation is negotiable and ranges from a full-time equivalent salary of $200,000 to $350,000 per year plus company equity, depending on experience and qualifications. Pay will be prorated based on the agreed weekly hours. Lunch will be provided when working at a Pacific Fusion facility.
