Why join Commonwealth Fusion Systems?
This could be huge if fusion stops being a lab project and becomes grid power, and Commonwealth Fusion Systems, a Cambridge, Massachusetts fusion energy company, is building the machine meant to prove it. A win here means utilities and heavy industry could buy clean, round-the-clock power from far smaller machines. A $1.0B round from Temasek and Khosla Ventures, with 123 open roles, 56 added in 30 days, shows the build is accelerating.

Join the power movement as a Senior Modeling and Simulation Engineer
We’re looking for a Senior Modeling and Simulation Engineer to join our design team to help build next-generation hardware. In this role, you will serve as a lead technical expert for advanced simulations, driving the predictive validation of complex hardware systems.
This role requires a high-level practitioner in multi-physics simulation who can comfortably model complex interactions across thermal, structural, fluid flow, and chemical regimes. If you enjoy solving deeply complex physics problems, applying rigorous modeling standards, and working in a collaborative, fast-paced environment to deliver first-of-a-kind hardware, this is your opportunity to make an impact.
At CFS, we excel in fast-paced environments, driven by our values of integrity, execution, impact, and self-critique. As we grow, we’re eager to bring on mission-driven folks who offer diverse perspectives and fresh ways to tackle challenges. We value diversity deeply and are proud to be an equal opportunity employer by choice. We consider all qualified applicants equally, regardless of race, color, national origin, ancestry, citizenship status, protected veteran status, religion, physical or mental disability, marital status, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, or any other basis protected by law. This role requires compliance with U.S. laws concerning the export of controlled or protected technologies or information (collectively, “Export Control Laws"). Any offer of employment will be contingent on the need for compliance with such Export Control Laws.
