Thea Energy is a fusion startup developing software-controlled, tunable rectangular magnets (planar coils) for stellarator-style magnetic confinement reactors.
About Thea Energy: Thea Energy is leveraging recent breakthroughs in stellarator physics and engineering to create a faster and simpler approach to commercializing fusion energy. The company is reinventing the stellarator using computer-controlled arrays of planar coils thereby replacing the intricate, complex modular magnets required in all other stellarator architectures. Thea Energy is on a mission to create a limitless source of zero emission energy for a sustainable future. Position Overview: Thea Energy is seeking a detail-oriented HTS Magnet Multiphysics Modelling Engineer to join its rapidly growing magnet engineering team. In this role, you will support the design, analysis, and testing of high temperature superconducting (“HTS”) magnets, foundational components of Thea Energy’s planar coil stellarator. You will work closely with senior engineers to develop and run HTS Magnet Engineering tools to simulate and predict magnet system performance. Candidates will need to be familiar with magnetostatic, quench and AC loss analysis techniques. This position will also require you to work closely with manufacturing and test teams to ensure analytical assumptions and test data are aligned with your analysis and simulation needs. This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious early-career engineer or analyst to build deep expertise in HTS magnet technology within a fast-paced fusion energy company.
