About the role

Fuse in Albuquerque, NM is seeking a lead Health Physicist to own the on-site radiological protection program for a fusion-energy facility.

You will verify shielding designs, run transport calculations, develop activation and dose-rate models, calibrate instruments, and author work permits.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
