About Thea Energy
Thea Energy is leveraging recent breakthroughs in stellarator physics and engineering to create a faster and simpler approach to commercializing fusion energy. The company is reinventing the stellarator using computer-controlled arrays of planar coils, thereby replacing the intricate, complex modular magnets required in all other stellarator architectures. Thea Energy is on a mission to create a limitless source of zero‑emission energy for a sustainable future. Position Overview
Thea Energy is seeking an experienced, highly motivated Control Systems Engineer – LabVIEW Developer to join its rapidly growing team. The Control Systems Engineer will own the design, development, and commissioning of the control system for complex equipment within Thea Energy’s stellarator fusion demonstration plant. As part of a rapidly growing team, you will help build the organization of a leading fusion energy company. This role requires a high degree of autonomy and the ability to move quickly. The team is composed of self‑motivated, creative, and fun individuals who enjoy solving complex problems. Key Responsibilities
Work with a team of experts in developing controls for Thea Energy’s systems. Architect, program, and document cutting‑edge distributed Data Acquisition and Control (DAC) projects utilizing Instruments hardware and software, such as LabVIEW, VeriStand, TestStand, SystemLink, incorporating DAQ, PXI, cRIO, and RIO (FPGA) architectures. Develop modular, readable, and reusable LabVIEW code, emphasizing reliability and continual improvement. Create engineering tools, including both desktop and web‑based testing applications. Integrate VHDL and C code into hardware‑in‑the‑loop (HIL) systems, using both NI and open‑source hardware and software platforms. Collaborate with hardware and systems engineers to define interfaces and requirements and ensure seamless integration of DAC/HIL solutions. Troubleshoot and swiftly resolve issues in LabVIEW‑based DAC/HIL systems. Develop and execute comprehensive test plans. Document design specifications, test procedures, and user manuals for automation and acquisition systems. Ideal Experience & Skillsets
Extensive experience as a control engineer on complex, large‑scale systems. Experience with magnetic confinement fusion, aerospace, or other highly technical industries. B.S. or M.S. in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related physics or engineering discipline. 5+ years of hands‑on LabVIEW development experience; experience with VeriStand, TestStand and SystemLink. Proven success in advanced LabVIEW programming, focusing on Data Acquisition and Control or HIL systems, within scientific, industrial, or research environments. Proficiency with Instruments hardware, including cRIO, PXIe, and expertise in both Windows and RT Linux environments. Competency in HIL/SIL software architecture. Proficiency in the development and optimization of LabVIEW applications; a LabVIEW Certification (Certified LabVIEW Developer and/or Architect) is advantageous. Exceptional work ethic and communication skills. Company Benefits
Salary range $95,000–$160,000 Comprehensive health benefits (medical, dental, vision) Employee equity stock options 20 days PTO Equal Opportunity Statement
