About Commonwealth Fusion Systems:    Commonwealth Fusion Systems is on a mission to deliver the urgent transition to fusion energy.   Combining decades of research, top talent, and new technologies, we’re designing and building commercially viable fusion power plants. And we're working with policymakers, suppliers, and many others to build the energy industry of the future.   We’re in the best position to make it happen. Since 2018, we’ve raised $4 billion of capital, making us the largest and leading fusion company in the world.   Now we’re looking for more thinkers, doers, builders, and makers to join us. People who’ll bring new perspectives, solve tough problems, and thrive as part of a team.    If that’s you and this role fits, we want to hear from you.
Join the power movement as a Metrology Engineer   CFS is seeking a motivated Metrology Engineer to develop, validate, and deploy inspection methods for highly engineered hardware supporting the SPARC project. In this role, you’ll work hands-on with complex parts and advanced measurement systems, partnering closely with Supply Chain, Manufacturing, Design Engineering, Quality, and R&D to ensure hardware meets demanding performance and reliability requirements.   You’ll thrive here if you enjoy solving ambiguous measurement problems, communicating clearly across disciplines, and building repeatable processes that scale. We’re looking for someone who takes ownership—from defining inspection strategy and tooling, to documenting methods and presenting results—while continuously improving how metrology supports production and engineering teams.

What you'll do:

• Develop and refine advanced mechanical inspection techniques to solve complex measurement challenges
• Qualify and document inspection methods in partnership with Quality Engineering (procedures, work instructions, and evidence of capability)
• Collaborate daily with Quality and Manufacturing Engineering to support production readiness and rapid issue resolution
• Support evaluation and selection of new metrology equipment and technologies, including ROI, capability, and implementation planning
• Maintain metrology equipment and standards; execute 5S and calibration/verification activities as applicable
• Provide design-for-inspection input during drawing release, GD&T definition, and development of inspection standards
• Cross-train as a Quality Technician and perform routine inspections as needed to support throughput
• Summarize, visualize, and present critical dimensional inspection results to technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Design and procure inspection fixturing and tooling to enable accurate, repeatable measurements
