Life at Proxima: Inside a Mission-Driven Team Building What's Never Been Built Before

Proxima Fusion exists to build stellarator power plants for a fusion-powered future. It’s an ambitious mission, and we need an extraordinary team to make it happen.

Here’s a glimpse into what it’s like to be part of that team.

Driven by a bold mission

Proxima is a place for people who want their work to matter – a place where extraordinary people do extraordinary things. Our team is united by a shared purpose, motivated by the idea that the world can be powered differently. We’re here to build something bigger than ourselves, something that’s never been built before.

Dynamic by design

Proxima is deliberately built around rapid iteration, at a pace that reflects the urgency of our goals. Things change fast. Projects evolve weekly. New insights shift plans. The environment here rewards intellectual curiosity, adaptability, and an appetite for action.

A team built for challenges

Almost everyone featured in the video references the scale of the technical challenges ahead. The work is demanding and the pace is intense. That means accepting a job at Proxima isn’t the safe, quiet, easy option: it’s a place for people who would rather build the future than wait for it.

Excellence, trust, and shared values

Although the Proxima team is a diverse one, spanning dozens of nationalities, backgrounds, and disciplines, we all share the same core values. Trust, collaboration, and a willingness to move quickly define our work culture, as does the conviction that building the world’s first stellarator fusion power plant is both necessary and possible.

Building the future, together

At Proxima, our mission and our culture are inseparable. For those motivated by hard problems, high stakes, and the chance to shape the future of energy, life at Proxima offers something rare, because it’s not just a place to work. It’s a place to build the future.
