About Commonwealth Fusion Systems:
Key Responsibilities
- Partner closely with Engineering to understand design intent and define more manufacturable GD&T requirements; work directly with Manufacturing Engineers to determine how to achieve critical tolerances using existing equipment and novel fabrication methods Proactive Problem Solving: Lead the development of risk-informed QA controls that bridge the gap between design intent and shop-floor reality to positively impact the CFS mission Inspection Architecture: Architect measurement systems and quality inspection methods specifically designed for the assembly of large metallic components, moving beyond theoretical models to executable floor-level plans Disposition Leadership: Provide risk-informed leadership to design engineers in dispositioning Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs) across the full range of outcomes (use-as-is, rework, repair, scrap), grounded in structural integrity and functional requirements Process Stabilization: Regularly analyze manufacturing data using control charts and process capability studies to identify emerging process drift, escalating insights to Operations to drive immediate process adjustments Sub-system Integration: Facilitate the creation and execution of PFMEAs and Quality Plans for the installation of sub-systems, ensuring that assembly tolerances are managed as the SPARC project scales Measurement System Analysis (MSA): Lead advanced MSA and Gage R&R studies to ensure that the methods used to measure novel designs are statistically sound and repeatable in a production environment Mentorship & Oversight: Provide technical coaching to QC Inspectors and Quality Engineers, specifically regarding GD&T interpretation on the shop floor
