About this role

Computational Physicist San Leandro, California About Fuse Fuse is on a mission to accelerate the world's transition to fusion energy. Our core product is TITAN: an Impedance Matched Marx Generator (IMG). TITAN is the most efficient and powerful (TW) machine of its kind. Fusers have built and licensed Magical Unicorn and FAETON I, 2 novel pulsed power generators. You are joining an early-stage fusion company. Please expect to wear different hats and take 0 to 1 ownership of objectives. Changing the world is hard but honorable and fulfilling. You should expect to work extremely hard to make a dent. This is not a regular job. Fusers are on a mission to change the world and get shit done. About the Role We are seeking a talented and motivated Computational Physicist to join our team. In this role, you will leverage your expertise in physics, mathematics, and computational methods to develop models and simulations that explore complex physical systems and phenomena. Your work will contribute to advancements in areas such as materials science, energy, aerospace, or quantum computing, depending on the company's focus. Key Responsibilities - Develop and run simulations for pulsed power systems using MHD, PIC, and circuit models. - Utilize and modify Screamer circuit code for modeling high-voltage pulse generation and delivery. - Conduct magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations to study plasma dynamics in fusion and Z-pinch configurations. - Implement and analyze particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations for plasma interactions and beam dynamics. - Model impedance matching in Marx generators and analyze energy
