Field Mechanical Engineer - Assembly

Co-own and be the expert in the assembly sequence of your workstation (initially this role is scoped to the assembly of the Toroidal Field Coil (TF) semicircle sub-assemblies), with the responsibility to determine and enact acceptable solutions and changes to the sequence that both allow successful completion of the work-station but also fit with the entire SPARC assembly sequence

Be responsible for new first-encounter work scope definition including the installation of various manifolds and magnet sub-assemblies

Determine and execute solutions for identified assembly issues that arise, such as fit, method, or component handling problems. Work with the Tokamak System design teams to determine how a part or process step could be modified to work while also meeting functional requirements

Proactively procure or build all tools, fixtures, or manipulation equipment required for the upcoming ports of the process in your workstation

Serve as the owner for a process by testing, implementing, and handing off to production technicians for repeated use for any given operation or tool(s)

Provide design feedback to SPARC sub-system designs with a focus on manufacturing and assembly. Participate in both formal and informal design reviews to ensure what is delivered can be assembled

Assist in the disposition and resolution of non-conformance issues on parts or the process, then working to incorporate and release red-line changes into an updated assembly sequence.

Support hands on operations during Tokamak Assembly serving a variety of roles in the process

Work with teammates in a collaborative fashion to receive feedback early and often to ensure all requirements are met. Many SPARC projects involve high loads, vacuum requirements, and complex manipulation requiring the involvement and review of adjacent sub system experts
