About the role
- Our core product is TITAN: an Impedance Matched Marx Generator (IMG).
- TITAN is the most efficient and powerful (TW) machine of its kind.
- Fusers have built and licensed Magical Unicorn and FAETON I, 2 novel pulsed power generators.
Responsibilities
- Develop and apply Monte Carlo simulations (e.g., MCNP, Geant4, FLUKA) for particle transport, shielding, and dose assessment in a fusion facility.
- Design and optimize radiation shielding for mixed neutron and gamma environments.
- Perform radiation transport analysis to improve system performance and safety.
- Develop and maintain radiation test environments for detector calibration and material testing.
- Support meteorological assessments related to radiation dispersion and environmental safety.
- Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams on fusion technology development and radiation safety initiatives.
Requirements
- Strong experience in Monte Carlo particle transport simulations (MCNP, Geant4, FLUKA, etc.).
- Hands-on experience with neutron and gamma detection techniques.
- Knowledge of radiation shielding, dose calculations, and safety assessments.
- Experience in radiation metrology and calibration techniques.
- Proficiency in data analysis and programming (Python, MATLAB, C++, etc.).
- Familiarity with regulatory frameworks (CNSC, NRC, IAEA standards).
Nice to have
- Experience working in a fusion/fission facilities or similar combined neutron-gamma radiation environment.
- Background in high-energy neutron/Gamma transport and shielding.
- Knowledge of advanced radiation detection technologies.
- Additional Requirements
- Must be able to travel and work extended hours/weekends as needed.
