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 Director - HTS Magnet Engineering to provide strategic and technical leadership over the design, build, and test of high temperature superconducting (“HTS”) magnets — the foundational component of Thea Energy’s planar coil stellarator. This role owns the magnet engineering roadmap end-to-end, manages engineering managers and cross-functional workstreams, and partners with executive leadership to align magnet development with company-wide program milestones. The Director will build organizational capability as the team scales rapidly, own key vendor and supply chain relationships, and represent magnet engineering in front of investors, partners, and technical stakeholders.
