Company Name

EX-Fusion Co., Ltd.

Job Type

[Master's, Doctoral, and Postdoctoral Researchers Welcome] Development of a Continuous Supply System for Laser Fusion Fuel Targets (Research & Development / Mechanical Design / Production Technology / Systems Engineer)

Work Detail

Our company is a deep tech startup originating from Osaka University, aiming to create an energy revolution and new industries through laser nuclear fusion. In this position, you will leverage your experience in research and development (R&D), mechanical/structural design, production technology, and system control to develop a system for mass-producing cryogenic (10K) fuel targets, essential for realizing laser nuclear fusion, and continuously supplying them into a vacuum chamber. ▍Two areas of expertise we are seeking (experience in either one is acceptable): 【A: Cryogenic/Vacuum Engineering (Mechanical Design / Structural Design / Equipment Development)】This position involves evolving static cooling systems into "dynamic production lines." The challenge lies in constructing a mechanism that operates at high speed while preventing heat intrusion under cryogenic conditions of 10K (minus 263°C). 【B: FA/Precision Automatic Machine Engineering (Production Technology / Control Design / FA / Robotics)】Implementation of a system (in-line inspection) that precisely handles and inspects minute parts (several millimeters) with a cycle time of 10 units per second (10Hz). ▍Specific Job Responsibilities - Development of a system for mass-producing (mass-production and automation) cryogenic (around 10K) laser fusion fuel targets (production capacity of approximately 10 units per second) - Development of production technology and equipment for mass-producing hollow plastic spherical shells (several millimeters in diameter) for DT fuel filling - Development of technology for filling hollow spherical shells with DT fuel - Development of a quality inspection system for hollow spherical shells and fuel-filled spherical shells (high-speed inspection device using image processing, etc.) (inspection of approximately 10 units per second) - Development of technology/transportation equipment for transporting cryogenic fuel targets without melting them - Development of a system for formulating hypotheses, creating basic designs (conceptual diagrams, block diagrams, simulations, etc.), and creating requirements specifications - Project management, direction, and integrated testing and evaluation after delivery in development/manufacturing outsourcing with partner companies

Ideal Profile

Required Skills - Master's degree or higher in a science or engineering field (Doctorate holders are welcome) - Experience in equipment development/system development in an experimental research laboratory or company in either of the above [A] or [B] (or a similar field) Preferred Skills - Professional Engineer qualification (any field) - Knowledge and development experience of observation equipment, experimental equipment, and measuring equipment in the fields of science (particle and nuclear physics, radiation physics, plasma physics, astrophysics, astronomy, condensed matter physics) or engineering (cryogenic engineering, mechanical engineering, nuclear engineering, chemical engineering, process engineering, electrical and electronic engineering, information engineering, accelerator engineering, aerospace engineering, systems engineering, production engineering, robotics) - Experience in mechanical design, mechanism design, control design, and integration of complex systems such as semiconductor manufacturing equipment, medical equipment, and precision instruments - Experience in designing and incorporating cryogenic equipment using GM refrigerators or liquid helium - Vacuum equipment (1e-4 Experience in design and embedded systems (Pa level or less) - Experience running the R&D cycle of hypothesis formulation, specification review, requirements definition, prototyping, experimental planning, measurement, analysis, verification, and improvement Desired Candidate Profile - Individuals who resonate with our company's vision and commitment to social contribution, and who have the drive to launch new industries themselves - Individuals who are proactive, identifying problems and taking initiative rather than waiting to be given them - Individuals who can actively share and discuss design, experimental, and analysis results with internal and external experts (including national research institutes and universities) - Individuals who want to take on the challenge of unprecedented technological development, starting from architecture selection, with autonomy

What we especially look for in a PhD or postdoctoral fellow

• Master's degree or higher in a science or engineering field (Doctorate holders are welcome) • The job title should clearly state "[Master's, Doctoral, and Postdoc Welcome]" • Experience in equipment development in fields such as elementary particle experiments, superconductivity, space development, and cryogenic physics.
