Why This Role Matters

Pacific Fusion is looking for a Senior Target Fabrication Engineer specializing in precision assembly and project management to join our growing target fabrication team. In this role, you will be a primary bridge between target design and physical realization, ensuring that complex, high‑precision assemblies are delivered on schedule. Your work in managing the lifecycle of these targets from component sourcing to final integration is critical to maintaining the high‑cadence production on the road to commercial fusion energy.

What You’ll Do
  • Manage the end‑to‑end delivery of fusion targets to internal departments, ensuring all technical requirements, budgets, and schedules are met.
  • Lead the precision assembly of complex target systems, utilizing specialized techniques to integrate components with micron‑level accuracy.
  • Coordinate across working groups to understand internal customer requirements and translate them into actionable fabrication and assembly plans.
  • Design and implement assembly fixtures and specialized tooling to improve the repeatability and reliability of target builds.
  • Establish project timelines and resource plans to transition from R&D prototypes to a high‑throughput production environment.
  • Oversee quality control and documentation for delivered targets, ensuring each assembly meets rigorous design intent and inspection standards.
What You Bring
  • Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related field; a Master’s or PhD is a plus.
  • Proven experience in project management within a precision engineering environment, specifically managing the delivery of complex assemblies.
  • Hands‑on expertise in precision assembly techniques and a deep understanding of GD&T and technical drawings.
  • Ability to drive a project through all stages of development, from initial concept and prototyping to high‑cadence internal delivery.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to act as a technical liaison between scientists, engineers, and fabrication technicians.
  • Proficiency in CAD modeling for the design of assembly jigs, fixtures, and handling equipment.
Bonus Points For
  • Experience managing small‑scale, high‑complexity hardware with micron‑level tolerances and delicate material interfaces.
  • Deep understanding of chemical and material bonding techniques that includes glue, epoxy, soldering, and precision welding.
  • Background in automated assembly or developing semi‑automated systems for a production environment.
  • Familiarity with cleanroom operations and cryogenic vacuum systems.
  • Knowledge of advanced metrology for verifying complex 3D assemblies, such as radiography or tomography.
Pay Range

$175,900 — $263,800 USD
