About Type One Energy
Type One Energy Group is mission-driven to provide sustainable, affordable fusion power to the world. Established in 2019 and venture-backed in 2023, the company is led by a team of globally recognized fusion scientists with a strong track record of building state-of-the-art stellarator fusion machines, together with veteran business leaders experienced in scaling companies and commercializing energy technologies.
If you are searching for the best new ideas and share our vision, join us as a Computational Physicist-MHD Reconstruction . Contract: Permanent, full time
We are seeking a Computational Physicist to develop and advance an integrated, multi-fidelity MHD-Edge-Divertor modeling framework that supports optimization, stability analysis, equilibrium reconstruction, synthetic diagnostics, and real-time plasma control. The successful candidate will contribute to the development of high-performance simulation tools and predictive modeling capabilities that enable deeper understanding of stellarator plasma behavior and inform key engineering and physics decisions.
Working at the intersection of computational physics, plasma science, and fusion engineering, the individual will help shape the performance and evolution of both Infinity One and Infinity Two programs, accelerating the path toward commercially viable fusion energy.
This role delivers the core physics-based modeling and control capability enabling between-shot analysis, real-time plasma optimization, AI-enhanced physics validation, and integrated design of diagnostics and control systems for next-generation stellarators.
Provide input for high fidelity models for physics validation.
