Job Description
Join us in our mission to commercialize fusion energy
Were all about solving climate change through fusion energy one stellarator at a time. Our impressive team of globally recognized fusion scientists along with veteran business leaders with experienced in scaling energy technologies came together with the ambition to fulfill the bold decadal vision of commercial fusion.
If changing the world wasnt incentive enough heres why you should join us:
We designed built and operated the worlds leading stellarators.
We aim to commercialize fusion energy in 10 years.
We know what were doing our leadership team has over 150 years of experience combined.
Weve already been recognized for our work by the Department of Energy through awards and funding.
Our philosophy accepts no intellectual boundaries and celebrates creativity.
If you are searching for the best new ideas and share our vision join us as a Senior Integrated Plant Modeling Engineer. This is what you need to know:
Location: Knoxville TN
Salary:Highly Competitive Plus Benefits
Contract: Permanent full time
Reporting to: Chief Technology Officer
Your role in the mission:
Type One Energy is seeking a highly motivated and experienced Senior Integrated Plant Modeling Engineer to join our team working on the exciting development of a nextgeneration stellarator fusion energy plant. This role is critical to our mission of creating a costeffective and commercially viable fusion energy solution.
As a Senior Integrated Plant Modeling Engineer you will be instrumental in developing and maintaining a comprehensive system model of our stellarator plant. This model will serve as a central platform for understanding plant behavior exploring design tradeoffs identifying key cost drivers and ultimately optimizing plant design for minimal cost while maintaining performance and safety.
You will work closely with a multidisciplinary team of physicists and engineers to ensure the model accurately represents the complex interactions within the stellarator system and its subsystems.
Key Responsibilities
You will develop and maintain system models creating and maintaining a detailed multidomain system model of the stellarator plant using ModelBased Systems Engineering (MBSE) methodologies and tools (e.g. SysML Cameo Systems Modeler PROCESS Bluemira etc..
You will be responsible for theIntegration and further development of plant models including but not limited to:
- Physics Systems:Magnetic confinement heating and current drive diagnostics.
- Engineering Systems:Vacuum vessel magnets (superconducting and normal conducting) cryogenics power systems cooling systems tritium breeding and handling remote handling.
- Plant Support Systems:Buildings infrastructure safety systems control systems.
- Reliability availability maintainability inspectability (RAMI) engineering support: Utilize integrated plant models to investigate the impact of individual components on overall plant performance from a RAMI perspective.
- Cost and Economic Models:Integrate cost models and economic analysis into the system model to understand cost drivers and perform trade studies.
You will also be responsible for:
- Develop and Maintaining integrated systems codes in Python or equivalent.
- Ensure model consistency traceability and adherence to MBSE best practices.
- Document model architecture assumptions and validation results.
- Requirements Management and traceability
- Collaborate with stakeholders to elicit analyze and document system and subsystem requirements.
- Link requirements to model elements to ensure traceability and verification.
- Utilize the system models to explore different plant architectures and design options.
- Conduct trade studies and sensitivity analyses to evaluate the impact of design choices on performance cost and risk.
- Support the development of system and subsystem specifications based on model insights.
- Use the model to support risk assessment and mitigation strategies.
- Work closely with the finance team to integrate cost models into the systems model to understand cost tradeoffs.
- Work closely with physicists engineers business teams to gather input validate models and communicate results.
- Present model findings and recommendations to technical and management audiences and participate in design reviews.
What youll need:
- Bachelors or Masters degree in Nuclear Engineering Systems Engineering Mechanical Engineering Industrial Engineering or a related engineering/scientific discipline.
- Minimum 10 years of experience in the design stage of complex projects exploring design tradeoffs
- Proven experience in developing and applying system models for complex engineering systems.
- Experience with MBSE methodologies (e.g. SysML UPDM DoDAF etc. and tools (e.g. Cameo Systems Modeler Enterprise Architect Rhapsody etc..
- Experience with simulation and analysis tools relevant to complex systems (e.g. MATLAB/Simulink Python Modelica etc..
- Experience with Fusion Specific tools (e.g. Process Bluemira) preferred but not required.
- Experience with cost modeling and analysis is preferred but not required.
- Basic programming or scripting skills (e.g. Python MATLAB) for model automation and data analysis is beneficial.
We offer:
In addition to a basic salary and yearly target bonus you will also get
- Stock and share options
- Relocation allowance
- Insurance plans
- 401k retirement options
- And many more great voluntary benefits
