Electric jobs in United Kingdom

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.

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.

• You will get to work on some of the most complex tech challenges to bring abundant, safe, clean energy to the world.
• 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.

Take ownership of the integration of our HTS stellarator magnet technology into the design of Proxima’s net energy stellarator, Alpha. This role demands high-level systems thinking, simulation and modelling skills, technical judgement, and the ability to make impactful design decisions in areas where the “right” answer is not immediately clear. The role will include developing the conceptual designs of first-of-a-kind electrical, cooling and protection system solutions.

• Architect the magnet sub-system of the Alpha stellarator, leveraging Proxima’s magnet technology and diving into protection and support systems.
• Closely collaborate with other systems and system leads to ensure alignment and cohesion across the full Alpha concept design.
• Own magnet system integration challenges, such as neutronics considerations and field quality requirements.
• Lead the analysis of the integrated Alpha magnet system using analytical models, high fidelity simulations, and first principles reasoning to make and validate key design decisions.
• Act as key stakeholder for Proxima’s Stellarator Model Coil, ensuring that this prototype magnet effectively informs the Alpha design.

• Recognized expertise in superconducting magnets, high-power electrical engineering, or integrated fusion reactor design.
• Proven track record in systems architecture or leading complex engineering efforts at the subsystem or system level, including conceptual design development and reduced-order analysis.
• Comfortable operating in ambiguous environments, making informed decisions with limited data, and managing trade-offs among competing requirements.
• Experience validating first-of-a-kind designs with uncertain performance through a combination of multi-scale and multi-physics simulations, testing, and prototyping.
• Demonstrated ability to lead and work within multidisciplinary technical teams in fast-paced, dynamic settings.
• Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts clearly and persuasively.

• 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.
