The Thea Energy physics team performs cutting-edge research in the areas of stellarator optimization, toroidal plasma confinement, plasma divertor and edge physics, plasma-materials interactions, and fusion neutronics. Thea Energy is looking for motivated interns to work with Thea physicists on projects relevant to these topic areas. 

• Take ownership of a dedicated research project within one of our core physics areas, guided by a senior physicist mentor.
• Conduct literature reviews to guide initial project specifications.
• Run simulations or analyze data to inform Thea Energy's stellarator design.  
• Collaborate directly with cross-functional teams of mechanical and electrical engineers.
• Support engineering design reviews by translating physics modeling and simulation results into specifications.  
• Utilize project management tools to track tasks and long-term research goals.
• Present your findings and project outcomes to the broader technical team at the conclusion of the internship.

It’s not necessary to meet all of the skillsets outlined above. Please feel free to send us a note and tell us why you would still be a great fit for this role or Thea Energy.
