About Commonwealth Fusion Systems: 

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

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.

  • Manage work center prioritization, expedite critical path items
  • Utilize shop floor applications to manage resource workloads

  • 5+ years experience in Manufacturing, Planning, or Supply Chain
  • Experience utilizing shop floor applications and/or manufacturing execution systems
  • Understanding of production processes
  • Basic understanding of ERP and MRP systems
  • Proficient with Excel
  • Computer skills with MS office or G-Suite applications
  • General understanding of quality system functionality
  • Have good communication skills and the ability to interact and work effectively with manufacturing and supply chain personnel

Additional experience and/or qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in the field of Supply Chain, Engineering, Business, or Finance
  • Start-up or high growth environment
  • Experience translating engineering designs into demand and supply plans
  • Experience with resource allocation
  • Technician experience is a plus
  • Open to relocation
  • Ability to occasionally lift up to 50 lbs
  • Perform activities such as stopping, typing, standing, and sitting for extended periods of time
  • Work in a facility that contains industrial hazards including heat, cold, noise, fumes, strong magnets, lead (Pb), high voltage, high current, pressure systems, and cryogenics
  • Ability to occasionally work nights/weekends
  • #LI-Onsite

Don't meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that women and people of color are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single qualification. At CFS, we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive and authentic workplace, so if you're excited about this role but your past experience doesn't align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway! You may be just the right person for this or other roles.

At CFS, we excel in fast-paced environments, driven by our values of integrity, execution, impact, and self-critique. As we grow, we’re eager to bring on mission-driven folks who offer diverse perspectives and fresh ways to tackle challenges.
