About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Fusion Energy Engineer to join our team at Tokamak Energy. As a key member of our Plant Prediction & Simulation department, you will play a critical role in the development of our spherical tokamak technology.

As a Fusion Energy Engineer, you will be responsible for providing analytical and product development resources to the wider business, focusing on tokamak design and operation, business and investor insights, and Fusion Pilot Plant systems integration.

Key Responsibilities
  • Provide metallic and non-metallic fluid dynamics expertise to the designs of fusion systems, focusing on novel liquid metal tokamak components, including cooling, heat extraction, exhaust, and breeding solutions.
  • Assess thermal loads in systems such as breeding blankets, divertors, first walls, limiters, shielding, and vacuum vessel.
  • Develop and implement computational methods and models for novel fluid dynamic solutions.
  • Collaborate in the assessment and qualification of designed systems using advanced flow analysis techniques.
  • Collaborate with team members to analyze and interpret simulation results, identify trends, and evaluate performance metrics.
  • Contribute to the documentation of modeling methodologies, results, and findings for internal reports, publications, and patent applications.
  • Report results to external parties at technical meetings and conferences.
Requirements
  • PhD or degree in a relevant physics or engineering discipline, or equivalent experience.
  • Knowledge of theoretical and computational fluid mechanics.
  • Experience performing, checking, and validating Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Magneto-Hydrodynamics (MHD) models.
  • Experience modeling non-isothermal and/or multiphase flows, modeling of flows with undergoing phase-transformations.
  • Experience using commercial (ANSYS, COMSOL) and open-source (OpenFOAM, Salome-Meca) simulation packages.
  • Some knowledge of programming languages such as C++, FORTRAN, Python, or MATLAB.
  • Some knowledge of parallel computations (MPI and/or GPU).
  • Experience in analysis and research.
  • Some experience in producing system design descriptions and system interface documentation.
What We Offer
  • Salary dependent on skills and experience, discussed from the outset.
  • 28 days (inclusive of festive break) holiday plus bank holidays.
  • Eligible for discretionary performance-related bonus.
  • Share options scheme.
  • Pension scheme.
  • Financial benefits, including group life insurance, critical illness, health cash plan, and discount scheme.
  • Innovation and merit bonuses.
  • Investment in training and development to support career progression.
  • Opportunity to work on and contribute to world-class innovation.
