Careers at Xcimer

Xcimer Energy leverages decades of research on Inertial Fusion Energy (IFE) combined with groundbreaking new laser architecture. Our mission is to deploy fusion power plants to meet global decarbonization goals as fast as possible. Xcimer has assembled a team of leaders in tough tech, fusion science, and manufacturing with a track record of rapid execution. Supported by leading investors, Xcimer is uniquely positioned to deliver limitless, clean, fusion power to combat climate change. Join us in powering a better world with inertial fusion! This is a full-time, onsite role based at our headquarters in Denver, CO. As a Control Systems Engineer – Test & Measurement, you will apply your skills to the design, implementation, verification, and commissioning of complex test and measurement systems used to validate advanced hardware and subsystems. We are looking for an engineer who brings strong diagnostic thinking, hands-on test stand experience, and demonstrable software capability to ensure systems are correct, reliable, and fit for purpose.

This is a full-time, onsite role based at our headquarters in Denver, CO. As a Senior Platform Engineer you will design and ship the systems, services, and paved-path tooling that let researchers and engineers move fast. The platform spans data analysis pipelines, the data warehouse, dashboards, research code environments, and the friendly interfaces that expose HPC simulation to non-specialists: a broad surface where great engineering directly accelerates discovery. This is a hands-on, high-impact role. You will architect and write systems, treat internal tooling as a product with real users, mentor junior engineers, and make deliberate tradeoffs between speed and robustness in an R&D environment where both matter. You'll work closely with physicists, controls engineers, and software architects to turn hard research problems into reliable, reusable infrastructure. In this role, you will build the platform behind Xcimer's path to commercially viable inertial fusion energy. You'll let PhDs and engineers spend their time on physics and engineering instead of infrastructure, with direct access to simulation, data, and analysis through tools that work reliably. Every researcher's productive day depends on the platform you build. This is a strategic leadership position tied directly to the company's mission. We are looking for our engineers to apply their technical expertise, problem solving skills, and dedication to quality to positively impact the future of energy!
