Full job description
About Us:
Established in 2002, General Fusion is a global leader in the race to commercialize clean fusion energy. We are pursuing a uniquely practical approach, Magnetized Target Fusion, and aim to provide zero-carbon fusion power to the grid in the early to mid-2030s. Today at our state-of-the-art labs in Richmond, BC, we’re operating a groundbreaking fusion demonstration machine called Lawson Machine 26 (LM26), designed to achieve transformational technical milestones and accelerate General Fusion’s technology to commercialization. Our path to market is funded by a global syndicate of leading energy venture capital firms, industry leaders, and technology pioneers. Learn more at www.generalfusion.com.
Position Overview:
General Fusion is searching for a Senior Electrical Engineer to join our Controls & Electronics team on our path to commercial fusion. You will be a key member of a dynamic, multi-disciplinary team delivering the control systems, data acquisition pipelines, and electronics that support our experimental operations. You'll report to the Manager, Pulsed Power Systems, bringing your extensive experience designing and deploying electrical systems to our one-of-a-kind experimental machines, where reliable operation in a noisy electrical environment is mission-critical.
The position is located on site at General Fusion's Richmond, BC facility, and may require occasional shift work or flexible hours to support experimental campaigns.
Key Responsibilities:
Serve as a technical authority in electrical engineering, helping the team isolate and resolve the signal and system-level issues encountered in experimental operations.
Provide guidance and mentorship on electrical design standards, best practices, and technical decision-making.
Design, develop, and commission data acquisition systems that maintain signal integrity in electrically noisy, high-voltage, pulsed-power environments.
Architect analog and digital signal chains - conditioning, isolation, digitization, and transmission - that deliver trustworthy measurements from sensor to recorded data.
Conduct and guide design reviews, from requirements, to schematic design, through PCB layout, and testing plans.
Own full hardware development lifecycle from concept, requirements, schematic design, PCB layout, prototyping, testing and production release.
Develop grounding, shielding, and isolation strategies (including fiber-optic and galvanically isolated links) to suppress noise and protect instrumentation from transients.
Collaborate with stakeholders across the organization, gathering and translating requirements from physics, mechanical, electrical, and software teams into robust, supportable electronic solutions.
Troubleshoot and characterize system performance in the lab, using
