## Job description

## About Fuse

We are building one of the most potentially consequential companies of the century. Our mission is to accelerate the world's transition to fusion energy while safeguarding humankind. This is not a normal company. This is not a normal job. We are committed for the long term to win.

## About the Role

You'll keep Fuse's Albuquerque facility running day-to-day — from the front door to the supply closet to the loading dock. This is a hands-on, entry-level role supporting a working radiation effects testing site. You'll keep the administrative and facility details on track, coordinate visitors and vendors, and support day-to-day operations of the facility. You'll work directly with the Operations Lead of ABQ Facility and the site's engineering, physics, operations and safety teams.

## What We Value

- Obsess about the details — sloppy work costs us later, so do it right the first time.
- Care — pick up the trash. Do things no one asks you to do. Go the extra mile because you care.
- Act with urgency — every hour matters more than it feels like it does.
- Be responsible for the outcome, not just the task; if it is not working, it remains your problem until it is fixed.
- Assume good intent — disagree openly, then commit fully once a call is made.

Core Responsibilities

- Maintain strong situational awareness across the facility — know what is happening, who is coming and going, and what has changed.
- Anticipate needs, surface issues early, and keep the team informed without waiting to be asked.
- Manage day-to-day office operations, including supplies, mail, shipping/receiving, and general office upkeep.
- Coordinate facility maintenance and vendor visits with the facility team and outside vendors.
- Manage visitor and guest logistics, including badges, escorts, conference rooms, and site orientation.
- Support new-hire onboarding, including workspace setup, equipment ordering, and first-day coordination.
- Maintain facility records, including safety, maintenance, and visitor logs.
- Support scheduling and calendar coordination for the Head of ABQ Facility and site team as needed.
- Track and reorder consumables and PPE with the safety team.
- Support meeting and site-visit setup and maintain common areas.

## Minimum Qualifications

- High school diploma or equivalent required; additional education or relevant administrative, operations, hospitality, or facility experience preferred.
- Strong organizational skills and follow-through — you keep track of a lot of moving pieces without dropping any.
- Comfortable interacting professionally with visitors, vendors, and government customers.
- Clear written and verbal communication skills.
- Willingness to learn basic safety and access-control procedures specific to a regulated facility.
- Proficiency with standard office software (Google Workspace, Microsoft Office, or equivalent).

## Preferred Qualifications

- Experience in regulated, secure, government, defense, or other high-accountability environments.
- Experience coordinating facility vendors and contractors.
- Familiarity with safety, security, and visitor-control procedures.

Additional Requirements

- This is not a remote position and will require relocation if not already local to Fuse's Albuquerque, NM facility.
- Position occasionally requires the ability to work extended hours and weekends when needed.
- Position may require some business travel to other Fuse facilities.

Physical Requirements

- Able to stand or sit for extended periods during operation.
- Able to lift and carry items up to 25 pounds regularly, and up to 50 pounds occasionally.
- Comfortable using personal protective equipment and following posted facility safety procedures.

Security Clearance This role may require the ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government security clearance.

## Benefits

- Medical, dental, and vision coverage.
- Relocation assistance for roles that require it.
- Flexible time off. Take what you need, no accrual tracking.
- 2 weeks of paid time off built into the end of each year (subject to team and business needs).
- Supportive leave of absence policies.
- Paid leave for new parents.

ITAR Requirements To conform to U.S. Government technology export regulations, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), you must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the U.S., protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.

## Equal Opportunity

Fuse is an Equal Opportunity Employer; employment with Fuse is governed on the basis of merit, competence, and qualifications and will not be influenced by race, color, religion, gender, national origin/ethnicity, veteran status, disability status, age, ancestry, immigration status, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, mental or physical disability, or any other legally protected status.

## About Fuse

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Fuse is a fusion energy and defense company developing magnetized-liner inertial fusion (MagLIF) technology to deliver clean, on-demand power while providing radiation testing services for national security customers.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series A)
- **Headquarters**: San Leandro, California, United States (operates "Fuseville" facility)
- **Founded**: 2018 (per CB Insights) or 2019 (per Wikipedia); founder J.C. Btaiche started the company at age 19
- **Founders**: J.C. Btaiche

## Core Business
- **Primary industry/industries**: Fusion energy, defense, nuclear effects testing, pulsed power engineering
- **Target customers**: U.S. government (Air Force, NNSA, national labs), defense contractors, eventually commercial energy utilities
- **Mission or purpose statement**: "Accelerating the World’s Transition to Fusion Energy" — building the fastest practical path to abundant, clean, safe, on-demand energy

## Products & Services
- **TITAN**: A 1 TW Impedance-Matched Marx Generator (IMG) — the essential MagLIF pulser building block. World’s first high-energy, high-power IMG, demonstrated in 2024 with results published in *Nature Scientific Reports*.
- **Z-Star**: A 15 TW MagLIF generator designed to iterate on and solve system engineering challenges (targeting 2027).
- **Apeiron I**: A pilot fusion plant design aiming to demonstrate a MagLIF hybrid plant core (targeting 203x).
- **FAETON I**: Neutron-producing fusion generator (over 1 trillion neutrons generated).
- **Radiation Testing Services (HEART)**: Hardened Electronics And Radiation Testing — providing short-burst radiation testing for government and commercial hardware resilience.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation**: Over $200 million as of September 2024 (per Bloomberg News)
- **Total Funding**: $32 million raised (Series A)

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Described as "misfits, tinkerers, skeptics, doers" — drawn to impossible problems. Values include frugality, speed, hands-on experimentation, and deep technical conviction. "Fuse is not a comfortable environment" — no bean bag chairs; many live, eat, and work at the facility.
- **Work environment**: "Fuseville" — a shipping-container communal living facility adjacent to the lab. Bed-to-reactor commute under 60 seconds. Sleep pods available. You'll likely build your own desk. "We really skimp on furniture."
- **Compensation**: Low salaries — "you should be willing to work for free. While you will receive a minimum base so that you can survive, money and lifestyle is not the motivator." Significant stock option upside if fusion succeeds. "Fair wages. Long hours. High voltage. Success far from guaranteed."
- **Benefits**: Competitive healthcare plan. High-end computer setup and cloud computing resources. "Everyone on the team has skin in the game."
- **Who should apply**: Self-motivated, deeply internally driven, humble yet brilliant, fusion geeks who built Polywells in high school, boundary-pushers who "get shit done." Must be comfortable with deferred gratification and high risk.
- **Remote/hybrid policy**: Not explicitly stated, but the "Fuseville" on-site living model suggests heavy in-person presence is expected. "Commuting makes your blood boil" is a stated value.
- **Notable perks**: Working on one of humanity’s hardest problems alongside top 1% talent; national security impact; potential enormous financial reward via stock options; "glory in case of ignition."
