About the company:
Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS) is on a mission to deliver clean fusion energy to the planet fast enough to matter for humanity’s biggest challenges.
It’s urgent. The gap between the energy we need and the energy we have is widening every day. Fusion is a critical part of the energy transition away from fossil fuels, a new chapter for the world’s energy supply.
We’re committing to delivering fusion power plants and a full-fledged fusion energy industry as we’ve delivered on other promises. Like the world’s strongest high-temperature superconducting magnet, the game-changing technology that’s making commercial fusion energy a reality.
We’ve raised over $2 billion in capital — more than any other fusion energy company — and attracted top talent to design, build, and deliver commercial fusion power plants. And we’re working with policymakers and suppliers to make fusion energy available globally.
As we push toward the fusion-energy future, we’ll keep setting and meeting milestones, sharing and validating our progress, and encouraging others to do the same.

Now we’re looking for more thinkers, doers, builders, and makers to join us. People who’ll bring new perspectives, solve tough problems, and thrive as part of a team.
If that’s you and this role fits, we want to hear from you.
Join the power movement as a Senior Scientist – ARC Plasma Instrumentation
Commonwealth Fusion Systems is currently in the early stages of designing the ARC fusion power plant. The tokamak will share some attributes with SPARC but will also present many new challenges, especially in the thermal and radiological environment inside of the tokamak. The Senior Scientist, ARC Plasma Instrumentation will lead early efforts at scoping out necessary measurements in the plasma for plant control and the technologies that will be used to make these measurements. The Senior Scientist will build off what has been done for SPARC, with a particular focus on determining the minimum necessary set of measurements and instruments for a power plant. In many cases, novel techniques may be required in order to operate in the thermal and radiological environment, so the scientist will work closely with R&D teams to determine necessary R&D for this instrumentation. CFS is looking for someone with experience designing, building, and operating fusion diagnostics and with an interest in exploring a breadth of measurements and technologies for future power plants.
