Description

About Thea Energy:  
 
Thea Energy is leveraging recent breakthroughs in stellarator physics and engineering to create a faster and simpler approach to commercializing fusion energy. The company is reinventing the stellarator using computer-controlled arrays of planar coils thereby replacing the intricate, complex modular magnets required in all other stellarator architectures. Thea Energy is on a mission to create a limitless source of zero emission energy for a sustainable future.  
 
Position Overview:

Thea Energy is looking for a driven scientist in fusion plasma diagnostics to join our core team. This position involves supporting the design, development, and operation of critical plasma diagnostics and control systems for our Eos planar coil stellarator.

The successful candidate will have a strong foundation in experimental fusion plasma physics. You will play a vital role in a fast-paced, multidisciplinary setting, directly contributing to the rapid integration of diagnostic capabilities to accelerate the Eos commissioning and subsequent experimental campaigns. These campaigns will encompass both scenario development and nuclear (DD beam-target fusion) operational phases. All experience levels will be carefully considered.
