Electrical Engineer

About HelionWe are a fusion power company based in Everett, WA, with the mission to build the world's first fusion power plant, enabling a future with unlimited clean electricity. Our vision is a world with clean, reliable, and affordable energy for everyone.Since Helion's founding in 2013, we have raised $1.5 billion from long-time investors such as Sam Altman, Mithril, and Capricorn Investment Group as well as new investors including Thrive Capital, LightSpeed Venture Capital, SoftBank, and others to propel us forward. Our current prototype, Polaris, has reached record-breaking plasma temperatures of 150 million degrees Celsius (13 keV). Helion is continuing to iterate and on the path to the world's first fusion power plant, Orion.This is a pivotal time to join Helion. You will tackle real-world challenges with a team that prizes urgency, rigor, ownership, and a commitment to delivering hard truths – values essential to achieving what no one has before. Together, we will change the future of energy, because the world can't wait.What You Will Be Doing:You will play a critical role in supporting the core electrical energy management systems that power our fusion generators. Our work spans pulsed power delivery to magnetics, power electronics and fusion energy recovery, low voltage controls and networking, and precision sensing in electrically noisy environments.We look for strong electrical engineers who bring deep expertise in a few areas and give them real ownership immediately. You’ll focus on the areas where your strengths drive the most impact today, while gaining hands-on opportunities to grow into expanded scopes and solve system-level challenges.Focus Areas:High Voltage/Pulsed Power SystemsDesign, test, troubleshoot, support, and scale high-voltage systems for driving pulsed magnetic coils (1
