- Perform Electrostatic simulation of high voltage systems.
- Assist in the analysis and interpretation of test data of different electrode and dielectric materials.
- Support high voltage vacuum component design and material selection.
- Perform surface flashover, vacuum arc and cold electron emission analysis.
- Present routine findings verbally and in writing to team members.
- Travel for conferences, supplier visits, meetings or company offsite events as required
About you:
- B.S. degree in electrical engineering, physics, or related field
- Knowledge of solid, liquid, and gaseous dielectric breakdown

- Experience with high voltage systems in vacuum
- Knowledge of high voltage transient analysis
- Experience with high voltage RF systems
- Experience working in the fusion industry
- Hands-on experience (design verification, troubleshooting and bench work)
- Circuit design and analysis
Benefits:
- Excellent medical, dental and vision benefits: We pay 100% of your premiums
- 10 paid holidays and company-wide December holiday break
- Generous paid vacation and sick time
- Small, tight-knit team with low barriers to action
- Exposure to a wide variety of problems for unparalleled, hands-on professional growth
- Weekly employer provided team meals, a well-stocked kitchen, and employee events on and off-site
