About the role
Helion in Everett, WA seeks a PhD candidate for a 12-week summer onsite computational research internship. You will work with our plasma simulation suite to study a specific aspect of the machine, contribute to developing predictive capabilities, and collaborate with a focused team.
The role requires a PhD-track student with experience in plasmas, GPA 3.0+, and proficiency in Python, C++, or MATLAB. Onsite work in Everett is required for the summer 2027 period.
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.
