Staff Dimensional Engineer – SPARC

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.

 

 

 

 

 

SPARC is a first-of-a-kind machine, and it presents some of the hardest dimensional management problems in industry today: large high-field magnets, tight tolerances on complex geometries at meter scale, novel materials, and assembly stack-ups with no precedent to copy from. CFS is seeking a Staff Dimensional Engineer to be the technical authority for dimensional management across HTS Magnet production and the SPARC project.

This is a role for someone who wants to define a discipline, not inherit one. You will own how design intent becomes buildable, verifiable hardware: setting GD&T and datum strategy with Engineering, analyzing variation propagation through assembly sequences before hardware proves it the hard way, and defining what we measure and to what acceptance criteria. Your decisions will shape how fusion hardware is toleranced, measured, and accepted, on SPARC and on the ARC power plants that follow.

You will work alongside a metrology team equipped with laser trackers, portable CMM arms, and structured-light scanning, and with an established Quality Engineering organization that owns statistical process control and measurement system analysis, so your focus stays on the geometry.
