Pacific Fusion was founded in 2023 with the mission to power the world with abundant, affordable, clean energy. Backed by General Catalyst and Lightspeed.
About the role
As a CAD Administrator, you will be the backbone of engineering productivity across our fusion demonstration system. Engineers, designers, scientists, and technicians rely on our CAD ecosystem and PLM integration to rapidly iterate on complex mechanical and electrical assemblies. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- 4+ years of experience in CAD Administration, CAD System Engineering, or CAD/PLM Application Support in a hardware design/manufacturing environment
- Deep administrative expertise with major CAD platforms (e.g., PTC Creo Parametric, SolidWorks, Altium) and their system configuration tools
- Hands-on experience managing CAD-to-PLM integrations, specifically PTC Windchill CAD Data Management (PDMLink / Workgroup Managers)
- Demonstrated experience building and managing CAD part libraries, start parts, design templates, and modeling standards
- Strong diagnostic and troubleshooting skills to resolve complex client-side CAD crashes, file dependencies, and dataset integrity issues
- Proactive, "DOer," and self-starter capable of navigating the ambiguity of a first-of-a-kind research project
More about this role
Pacific Fusion was founded in 2023 with the mission to power the world with abundant, affordable, clean energy.
We are rapidly designing and building a pulser-driven inertial fusion system to achieve net facility gain (more fusion energy output than stored energy input). In parallel, we are developing the key components required to build affordable fusion systems.
Our plans are ambitious. We have raised over $900M so far from incredible investors, resourcing us to deliver on these plans. We are bringing together the best scientists, engineers, and operators from the fusion community, hard tech industry, and other sectors. We are united by a shared sense of urgency to provide clean power for the world, particularly managing climate change while meeting growing global energy demand.
