Marathon Fusion is building the fuel cycle for fusion energy. We're accelerating the commercialization of critical technologies to ensure the safe and economic deployment of fusion energy at sufficient speed and scale to achieve climate impact.

Our work requires a willingness to adapt to rapidly changing circumstances and shifting priorities, while keeping an eye on the long-term goals that ultimately drive success. Navigating this environment necessitates effective communication across roles and backgrounds, a high degree of trust between team members, and the willingness to learn and develop new skills on the job. We place particular weight on a team member's ability to be self-directed and proactive.

In your first year at Marathon, you'll:

• Get up to speed on state-of-the-art tritium processing systems

• Perform design work on cold plasma sources integrated into key fusion supporting components, and test these devices in the lab

• Craft technical roadmaps alongside our internal and external collaborators

• Push forward novel approaches to fuel processing relevant to near-term fusion power plants

The ideal candidate will meet most of these requirements:

• A graduate degree in plasma physics

• Proficiency at data analysis and presentation.

• Excellent written and oral communication skills.

• Willingess to travel for conferences and client site visits.

• Eager to learn about the tritium fuel cycle and related technologies

• Excited to think broadly and at a systems-level about the requirements on the fuel cycle driven by confinement physics and vice-versa

• Basic operational grant management skills.
