Zürich, Schweiz Proxima Fusion GmbH Vollzeit

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 and we're leveraging this technology with advanced computational design capabilities.

We're on a journey to redefine the energy landscape, ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

Are you an experienced mechanical engineer passionate about shaping the future of energy? Proxima Fusion seeks a leader to spearhead the mechanical design and manufacturing of components for stellarators. The ideal candidate will be a creative and highly analytical problem-solver with extensive experience in design for manufacturing and assembly. Experience with cryogenics/vacuum, high heat flux components or advanced structural design would be a strong bonus.

If you are:
  • An experienced mechanical engineer with 10+ years of experience designing, developing, and delivering complex mechanical systems;
  • A proven leader who has grown teams and run major technical projects;
  • An R&D specialist with a strong track record of development from concept through to production or across multiple product generations;
  • Experienced in leveraging both analytical models and advanced simulation;
  • A professional well-versed in industry standards and regulations;
You will help us by:
  • Leading and coordinating the design, development, and implementation of complex systems for stellarators;
  • Helping to define and coordinate engineering design processes optimized to balance speed, agility and rigor;
  • Driving the selection and development of manufacturing processes and ensuring seamless transition from design to production;
  • Collaborating closely with multidisciplinary teams, taking a key role in minimizing overall system compromise;
  • Contributing to the growth and development of mechanical engineering teams.
In return, you will get:
  • Fulfilling Mission: Work on harnessing the universe's fundamental energy source that powers the stars. If you want to contribute directly to transforming the way we produce energy in the world, Proxima is the place to be.
  • Incredible Team: Join a mission-driven, team-oriented, excellence-seeking team from all over the globe. We're working on fusion to change the world and we thrive in a supportive and rewarding environment.
  • World-Leading Partners: We are supported by internationally renowned groups, industrial companies and technical advisors with experience built on groundbreaking fusion experiments.
  • Shared Success: Live the success of the company by taking part in a generous stock options program. We aim for every team member to feel a shared sense of ownership, responsibility, and pride.
  • Healthy Environment: We take care of each other, while pushing ourselves to our best - we are on a marathon, not a sprint. We offer language courses for team members and their families.
