Machine Learning jobs in United States

At Proxima Fusion, we're driven by a bold mission - to redefine the future of sustainable energy. Our unique concept, built upon the groundbreaking W7‑X stellarator and the latest advances in technology, paves the way for commercially viable fusion power plants.

What's more, our work in stellarator optimization, powered by cutting‑edge computation and machine learning, is propelling us into uncharted territories of fusion technology. New higher performance design points are unlocked by high temperature superconducting magnets.

To fully grasp this huge opportunity, we're building a team of extremely dedicated and passionate people who come together driving something extraordinary, radically transforming technology in the world.

• You will get to work on some of the most complex tech challenges to bring abundant, safe, clean energy to the world.

• Implement and improve processes across Business Operations: map current state, pull requirements from stakeholders, design lightweight workflows, define SLAs/owners, document SOPs, train teams.
• Drive requirements and prioritization: turn ambiguous asks into clear tickets and roadmaps with acceptance criteria and success metrics; manage backlogs and trade‑offs.
• Proactively hunt for gaps and risks: detect issues early, propose fixes, elevate smartly, and land corrective actions that stick.
• Align technical and business stakeholders and keep everyone pointed at outcomes.

• A generalist operator with a track record of shipping complex initiatives in ops/PMO/consulting (deep‑tech or tech environment is a plus).
• Bias‑to‑action, owner mindset, and high accountability you get hard things over the finish line without tons of oversight.
• Excellent organization and project management skills: you create clarity, manage dependencies, and hit deadlines with high attention to detail.
• Analytical and data‑driven: comfortable building pragmatic models/trackers and turning insight into decision and action.
