Overview:
At Inertia, we plan to build the world’s largest laser to initiate the world’s first fusion power plant. We need talented engineers to take on the challenge of scaling up various optical components (laser glass and optics, traditional lens, micro lens array, etc.) to unprecedented volume to supply the laser system.
This role will be critical to evaluate feasibility of suppliers, bring up pilot production, and scale up to production volume to supply the fusion power plant.
The role will report to the VP of Industrial Engineering.
What You'll Get To Do:Engage internal design teams to consolidate all design requirements, and document the requirements for vendor engagement.
Engage suppliers for feasibility, scale, and cost deep dives
Monitor pilot production bring up
Establish manufacturing best practices
Collaborate with quality engineering to implement production quality control
Yield analysis and failure analysis
B.S. with 10 years of experience, or M.S. with 7 years of experience
Experience with glass and ceramic fabrication processes a must
High volume manufacturing development experience a must
Experience with production quality control a must
The base salary range for this role is $165,000 - $225,000; The pay range provided is an estimated base range for this role. Exact compensation may vary based on skills, experience, and education.
We offer market-competitive compensation and an excellent benefits program, including Medical, Dental, and Vision plans, company-paid holidays, matching 401k, and more!
