Laser Engineer
About Fuse
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. This is not a normal company. This is not a normal job. We are committed for the long term to win.
About the Role
As a Laser Engineer, you'll design, build, and maintain the laser systems that trigger and diagnose Fuse's pulsed-power machines at our Napierville facility.
This is hands-on work: aligning and maintaining precision optical systems, developing laser triggering and diagnostic capabilities for high-energy-density experiments, and troubleshooting real hardware on a fast-moving test schedule.
Core Responsibilities
Design, build, align, and maintain precision laser systems used for triggering and diagnostics on pulsed-power experiments.
Develop and improve laser-based diagnostic techniques, including timing, triggering, and optical diagnostics.
Troubleshoot optical and laser hardware to keep experimental systems operating and experiments on schedule.
