Job description

About Torus
Torus is headquartered in Utah and is expanding manufacturing at our 545,000-square-foot facility in Salt Lake City called GigaOne. We are the world's first mesh energy infrastructure, uniting communities through resilient, sustainable, and intelligent power. We design, engineer, manufacture, install, and support our systems end-to-end, standing behind them throughout their lifecycle.

Torus is committed to American manufacturing, engineering excellence, and building energy systems that last.
Torus has raised over $267 million from investors like Magnetar, Mercado, ICONIQ and Origin Ventures. The investments are helping to accelerate deployment of modular power plants across utilities, data centers, and industrial sectors. This investor confidence reflects the strength of our team, technology as well as the scale of the problem we are solving.
At Torus, you will be part of something larger than a single product or technology. Your work will help build energy infrastructure that supports and strengthens our electrical grid, critical systems, industry, and communities for decades to come. We value accountability, collaboration, and clear thinking. We are looking for people who want to solve hard problems and build things that matter.

  • Precision Tools: Proficient using precision measuring tools (calipers, micrometers, tape measures).
  • Aptitude: Basic mechanical aptitude for troubleshooting equipment issues and strong attention to detail with a commitment to quality.
  • Teamwork & Reliability: Reliable, punctual, and able to work independently or as part of a team.

Preferred Experience
  • Specific Machinery: Experience with specific tube laser brands, specifically BLM.
