Full Job Description

About Fuse

We are a (rad hard) team of builders, breakers, and fixers - delivering pulsed-power systems to accelerate the world’s transition to fusion. Customers span defense, energy, and aerospace; our pulsed-power platforms (e.g. TITAN, Z-STAR) support nuclear effects testing now and fusion plants tomorrow.

About the Role

Design and ownership of radiological protection programs for a high-radiation prompt test environments. The role covers ALARA practices, dosimetry and bioassay programs, instrumentation/spectroscopy, shielding/activation analysis, environmental monitoring, waste and source control, procedure development, and audit readiness. You will collaborate with Radiation Contamination Technologists (RCTs) and Test/Engineering to enable safe throughput and reliable data while meeting federal and state requirements.

Job Requirements

Plan and execute radiation work procedures (RWPs)/ALARA for radiation generating operations (pulsed-power accelerators and neutron yields); establish boundaries, brief crews, and control access. Develop, implement, and maintain the site Radiological Protection Program (RPP); chair/coordinate ALARA reviews and dose trending for individuals.
Author Radiation Work Permits and safety checklists for radiation generating operations; establish boundaries, postings, and access controls with RCT collaboration.
Manage Dosimetry & Bioassay programs and extremity dosimetry monitoring of rad workers; determine bioassay requirements (urinalysis/thyroid counting), maintain exposure records and reporting.
Regulatory understanding, negotiating, and implementation as required for regular operations
Oversight of all radiological work and radiological protection including daily operations as well as high radiation areas and contamination scenarios.
Perform quick-turn shielding/activation estimates (MCNP/GEANT4/NOVICE or validated simplified methods); recommend cell layouts, shielding, and radiation material area (RMA) criteria.
Establish contamination control levels; oversee RCT decontamination practices of hardware, facilities, and personnel as required.
Monitor and trend machine activity and surface surveys; investigate anomalies and document corrective actions.
Deliver Radiation Worker (I and II) training and refreshers. Maintain training records.
Ensure alignment with NRC/DOE/OSHA/EPA/state requirements and DoD/DoE site protocols; prepare for and host audits/inspections; close findings.
Maintain surveys, chain-of-custody, calibrations, source inventory, and incident reports in controlled repositories
Support experiment/test series planning and readiness reviews.

Minimum Qualifications

Education: BS/MS in Health Physics, Radiological Engineering, Nuclear Engineering, or related field.
Experience: 4–8+ years in radiological protection at accelerator, reactor, pulsed-power, HEDP, nuclear effects, or similar mixed-field environments.
Expertise with radiation protection standards and safety processes..
Experienced with MCNP/GEANT4/NOVICE (or equivalent) for shielding and activation modeling.
Proficiency with survey meters, neutron rem counters, friskers, personal contamination monitors; meter calibration/response checks; sealed-source control and leak testing.
Clear, concise technical writing; calm, direct communication with engineers, technicians, and external customers and reviewers.

Desired Skills

Prior responsibility for DoD/DoE environmental monitoring programs and safety protocols
Experience integrating rad controls with non-rad hazards (HV, vacuum, cryo, lasers) and broader EHS systems.
Familiarity with PDM/PLM and document control practices; change control for procedures and drawings.
Experience supporting classified or export-controlled programs; comfortable with customer interfaces (DoD/DoE primes).

Quality, Safety, and Compliance

Knowledge of NRC/Agreement-State rules, 10 CFR series (as applicable), DOE Orders/Guides, ANSI/HPS standards, and OSHA electrical/LOTO/ESD practices.
U.S. person under ITAR/EAR definitions and clearance-eligible for certain programs (background check required).
