Senior Software Engineer (Dev Platform)

The Senior Software Engineer (Dev Platform) position at Proxima Fusion is a full-time role. We're building the world's first commercial stellarator fusion power plant. First spin-out from the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics, based on Wendelstein 7-X (the largest stellarator ever built), €650M+ raised, teams in Munich, Zurich and Oxford. Finding a good stellarator design means searching an enormous high-dimensional space, and every candidate design needs heavy plasma physics simulation. That's the compute problem this role owns: cloud + HPC clusters, K8s, Ray, Dask, and the platform work around it (CI/CD, IaC, observability). You'd sit directly next to the physicists and AI researchers burning through that compute, so you see exactly what your infrastructure unlocks. Python and Linux.

Key skills for this role include: Munich, Germany, ONSITE, Full-time.
