Join the power movement as a Senior R&D Engineer
The NINT Magnet R&D team is responsible for testing and retiring risks for CFS’s NINT (non-insulated-non-twisted) HTS magnets. This includes executing development test campaigns for CFS’s next-generation NINT magnet technology, and leading RCCA efforts through analysis and testing to resolve issues that may arise with the SPARC NINT magnets currently in production, tokamak integration, and commissioning. HTS magnet technology is inherently multidisciplinary, and a successful Senior R&D engineer will seamlessly flex between disciplines and groups to effectively lead the execution of tests and projects on aggressive schedules supporting CFS’s mission. The Senior R&D engineer must have a fundamental understanding of mechanical, electrical, materials, fluids, and systems engineering, or some combination thereof. It is also the role of the R&D engineer to constantly push and challenge the requirements, risks, and test objectives that they are given to help the combined stakeholders come to a consensus on why the planned test is required and what data is deemed essential for the outcome to be achieved.
