About Commonwealth Fusion Systems:

Commonwealth Fusion Systems is on a mission to deliver the urgent transition to fusion energy.

Combining decades of research, top talent and new technologies, we’re designing and building commercially viable fusion power plants. And working with policymakers and suppliers to build the energy industry of the future.

We’re in the best position to make it happen. Since 2018, we’ve raised over $2 billion in capital – more than any other fusion energy company in the U.S.

Now we’re looking for more thinkers, doers, builders, and makers to join us. People who’ll bring new perspectives, solve tough problems, and thrive as part of a team.

If that’s you and this role fits, we want to hear from you.

Join the power movement as a Controls Engineer

As a Controls Engineer, you will be responsible for developing machine and process concepts in collaboration with Manufacturing and Mechanical Engineering peers. You will create a robust system architecture to support all controls components such as robotic manipulators, PLCs, safety devices, HMIs, servo drives, and more. For each project you will work from initial design all the way through commissioning, process fine-tuning, and validation to ensure that all systems function reliably and meet their design goals. Additionally, you will work closely with cross-functional teams throughout the entire life cycle of the product and processes.

What you'll do:

Participate in initial equipment conceptual development and balance product specifications, process control requirements, layout complexity, cost, quality, and lead time limits

Specify, select, and program robotics systems for material handling, laser welding, tig welding, mig welding, material removal, part assembly, part inspection, and subtractive manufacturing

Write, and debug PLC structured text with an emphasis on generating code that is organized, structured, documented, maintainable, and reusable. PLC code will interact with subsystems such as conveyors, robots, machine vision, and 3rd party equipment

Implement (ANSI/RIA15.06/OSHA compliant) control reliable safety systems for safeguarding robots, gantries, conveyors, and other high volume manufacturing equipment

Design, modify, and approve electrical schematics for manufacturing and test equipment. (compliant with NFPA79/NEC/UL508A standards)

Generate aesthetically simple HMI screens for complex machinery while providing sufficient feedback for troubleshooting

Introduce automated processes into production, and train Maintenance and Production Teams to support after deployment into production

Create machine interactions with plantwide SCADA to communicate product acceptability, machine status, and process variables

Debug and optimize automated processes to maximize cycle time, improve availability, and yield

Characterize and validate automated processes using a data-driven approach such as simulation, Capacity and Capability statistical test (Gage Repeatability and Reproducibility test, Cpk, etc)

Create data management and tracking communications network architecture and interface with cross-functional teams for product, processes, and quality traceability control implementation

What we’re looking for:

Bachelor’s degree in engineering field is required

5+ years' experience as controls engineer on complex electro-mechanical systems. Knowledge of assembly-level thermal/mechanical design considerations is a plus

Experience with control system architecture

Experience with rotating machinery, cable winding, soldering, and/or pipe bending

Experience with enclosure design compliant with NFPA79/NEC/UL508A standards

Experience working with job shops and external vendors

Ability to program and troubleshoot automation controllers in all IEC 61131-3 designated languages strongly desired

Experience with control reliable safety systems for high volume manufacturing equipment (Compliant with ANSI/OSHA standards)

High self-motivation and drive to execute quickly with excellent troubleshooting and problem-solving skills

A value for design for manufacturability, serviceability, and simplicity over complexity

Bonus points for:

Experience in Beckhoff and Siemens controls platforms

Experience in robot integration and programming

Experience in Ignition SCADA systems

Machine Vision experience is a plus

Greenfield or brownfield startup commissioning experience

Expertise with CAD drafting. AutoCAD Electrical is a plus

Must-have Requirements:

Ability to occasionally lift up to 50 lbs

Perform activities such as typing, standing, or sitting for extended periods of time

Dedication to safety to mitigate hazards that may include heat, cold, noise, fumes, strong magnets, lead, high voltage, and cryogenics

Willingness to travel or work required nights/weekends/on-call occasionally
