About this role
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 Senior Tooling Engineer to lead the design, build, and factory-floor implementation of large, heavy custom tooling and specialized handling equipment for a first-of-a-kind fusion energy system. In this role, you will work closely with design and manufacturing teams to take full ownership of tooling from early conceptual CAD through fabrication, load testing, commissioning, and operational deployment.
While primary focus is on heavy tooling design and hardware implementation, you will also support physical integration and assembly planning to ensure multi-ton, complex hardware can be built, handled, and maintained safely and repeatably. You are comfortable moving seamlessly between CAD modeling, supplier fabrication shops, engineering reviews, and hands-on rigging and hardware installation on the factory floor.
