Damien Scott’s Post

I’ve joined the Astera Institute as a Resident to launch 1cFE, a frontier backcasting initiative testing whether fusion can reach sub-1¢/kWh within ten years. We’ll publish open analyses, run focused prototypes, and use AI to accelerate science, engineering, and manufacturing. More: https://lnkd.in/gApH2fBe We’re hiring: theoretical physicists, systems engineers, and ambitious builders ready to push the frontier

Hiring builders who move fast with rigor. If you’re ambitious, independent, and unafraid to question assumptions, take a look at our open roles: Theoretical Physicist https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/astera/8b88f9c5-80ff-4eed-a9c1-bb96749a484b Systems engineer https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/astera/131b58e9-ca63-4d90-911b-3e4a88c5d65c

Great stuff, Damien. I can't think of a better person to lead this challenge and wish you all the best with it. Remember that the speed of development in F1 comes from the organization's culture - get that right in your new team and the rest will follow.
