Fuse Nuclear Engineer

We are building one of the most potentially consequential companies of the century. Our mission is to accelerate the world's transition to fusion energy while safeguarding humankind. As a Nuclear Engineer at Fuse, you'll bring expertise in particle transport, Monte Carlo simulation, radiation shielding, and radiation diagnostics to our fusion facility.

You'll develop and implement radiation diagnostics for facility operations and experimental characterization and work closely with physicists and engineers to advance our diagnostic capabilities.

Analyze radiation data to support experimental campaigns, including source characterization, spectral unfolding, and spatial/temporal diagnostics.

Perform radiation-transport analysis to improve system performance and safety.

Develop and maintain radiation test environments for detector calibration and material testing.

Develop and apply Monte Carlo simulations such as MCNP, Geant4, or FLUKA for particle transport, shielding, dose assessment, and detector performance.

Support meteorological assessments related to radiation dispersion and environmental safety.

Analyze radiation data for operational safety, shielding effectiveness, and compliance with regulatory requirements.

Master's or PhD in Nuclear Engineering, Physics, or a related field.

Proficiency in data analysis and programming using Python, MATLAB, C++, or similar tools.

Familiarity with regulatory frameworks including CNSC, NRC, and IAEA standards.

Experience working in fusion/fission facilities or similar combined neutron-gamma radiation environments.

Background in high-energy neutron/gamma transport and shielding.

Must be able to travel and work extended hours/weekends as needed.
