hexium · Austin, TX
Skills: Python
Hexium is modernizing Atomic Vapor Laser Isotope Separation (AVLIS) into a scalable industrial technology for domestic isotope production. We are designing and building complex systems combining high-power lasers, electro-optics, precision controls, instrumentation, and custom electronics. Our engineers work directly on the hardware, from initial design and prototyping through integration and testing. As an Electrical Engineer, you'll build systems that are central to Hexium’s technology and to critical U.S. energy and national-security supply chains. Role We're looking for an Electrical Engineer to design, build, and test the power electronics, power supplies, and control hardware behind our laser and separation technology, including high-temperature and induction heating hardware. This is a hands-on, iterative design role within our Technology Development group, with a focus on developing reliable, multi-kilowatt power systems for complex experimental environments. Beyond power systems, you’ll contribute to instrumentation, diagnostics, and lab controls work across the company. The ideal candidate has practical experience designing and testing power electronics. They’re comfortable around high-voltage hardware and enjoy solving hard problems through hands-on experimentation and close collaboration with scientists and mechanical engineers. Key Responsibilities Design, build, and test power electronics and power supplies, including inverters and their control and protection circuitry Iterate hardware from bench-scale prototypes to robust, multi-kilowatt lab systems Develop control, feedback, and safety interlock systems for power and thermal processes Evaluate, specify, and integrate commercial power equipment alongside in-house …truncated… flexibility given the equipment and hardware dependencies. Work in laser-controlled areas requires lab safety training (LSO-administered), and high-power work follows Hexium’s electrical safety procedures. Benefits Stock Options…
