Job Description
Experimental physicist who has hands-on experience working with liquid lithium, liquid metals, or metal vapor sources (e.g. liquid lithium as a plasma-facing component, metal vapor atomic beam sources for atomic physics or Physical Vapor Deposition). The ideal candidate would have direct experience designing/building scientific hardware and an understanding of the material physics involved in liquid metal wetting on substrates and/or plasma/ion-surface interaction.
In this role, you will be instrumental in building our first technology demonstration project. You will be in charge of designing lithium vapor sources as well as working with lithium-coated plasma facing components and particle energy analyzers. You will work closely with a multidisciplinary team to achieve the company’s technical milestones.
