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:
The Lead Mechanical CAD & PLM Engineer owns the configuration and integrity of Thea Energy's products by directly managing the top-level assembly in Siemens NX and creating, maintaining, and enforcing the modeling standards, drafting standards, review workflows, and release process for the company. The role pairs end-to-end ownership of one or more top-level assemblies with process and procedure governance over CAD and PDM standards and processes. These responsibilities will be executed using Siemens NX and Siemens Teamcenter to achieve project goals through a lean, high-performance process adhering to ISO 9001 standards. The Lead Mechanical CAD & PLM Engineer is the single point of accountability for how Thea structures, controls, and evolves its top-level CAD configurations, and for ensuring that the PDM environment remains stable, current, and well-governed as the team scales. The role combines deep CAD authority with system-administrator responsibility, and partners closely with subassembly leads, systems engineering, and engineering leadership.
