Divertor Plasma Physicist (Scientist/Sr. Scientist/Manager)

We are seeking a highly motivated Plasma Physicist to join our team, focusing on the physics design of stellarator divertors. Our unique toroidally continuous X-point divertor provides a robust, high-performance exhaust solution, addressing one of the most significant challenges in stellarator magnetic confinement. This role involves analyzing and simulating the divertor region of stellarator magnetic fields and collaborating across disciplines to execute our divertor development program.

The ideal candidate will possess a strong background in plasma physics, particularly plasma edge physics, plasma-material interaction, and optimization along with hands-on experience in experiments and analysis. Experience with fusion device experiments is a plus. You will work with a dynamic team, contributing to cutting-edge research and development within Thea Energy’s stellarator systems. Candidates from all levels of professional experience are encouraged to apply and will be thoroughly evaluated.
