Job description
First Momentum Ventures is hiring for a pre-seed Deep Tech startup industrialising fusion and turning Sci-Fi machines into manufacturable, repeatable products. At the centre of this strategy is the industrialisation of high-field superconducting magnet systems , to unlock compact fusion and near-term commercial applications in medical imaging and industrial inspection. Backed by First Momentum, Europe’s leading early-stage deep tech investor, the founding team is now hiring its first technical engineer as it moves from research concept to prototype hardware. Tasks: - System-level architecture of the HTS magnet platform - Design, development, and validation of HTS coils for fusion and MRI-class applications - Demountable superconducting joint development - Quench detection, protection, and instrumentation - Prototype campaigns from bench experiments to sub-scale hardware - Defining the path from early prototypes toward repeatable, industrialised production Must-haves: Nice-to-haves: Typical backgrounds: magnet design engineers, applied superconductivity researchers, HTS system developers, or research engineers ready to build products instead of papers. - Deep experience with superco...
