Fusion Mantle

About the job
Fusion Mantle is an Israeli startup building fuel-cycle systems for fusion power plants. Our first system is a compact loop of molten lead-lithium that demonstrates the extraction of hydrogen isotopes from liquid metal. The system is developed together with a leading German fusion company and is destined for a fusion research facility in Germany.
We are looking for an Integration Technician to join our hands-on building team. The role involves taking the system from drawings and P&amp;IDs to a working, tested loop in our new lab: piping, heaters, pumps, gas lines, wiring and instrumentation. You will work side by side with our physicists and engineers in a small, fast-moving team, and your practical input will shape how the system is built.
Full-time, on-site at our lab in Petah Tikva. Start date: 11/2026. To apply, send your CV to <a href="mailto:benny.bilenko@fusionmantle.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">benny.bilenko@fusionmantle.com</a> .

</li>
<li>Install the electrical systems: power distribution, control cabinets, heaters and heat tracing
</li>
<li>Install, wire and check the instrumentation: thermocouples, pressure transducers, flow and level sensors, gas analyzers, and the data-acquisition and control I/O
</li>
<li>Install thermal insulation and heat tracing for operation with molten metal at high temperature
</li>
<li>Take part in the lab fit-out: positioning equipment, gas storage cabinets and utility hookups (power, ventilation, cooling), coordinating with outside contractors
</li>
<li>Receive and inspect components from suppliers, and coordinate with machine shops, welders and other subcontractors
</li>
<li>Work under the lab's safety program for molten metal, lead, and compressed and flammable gases, and help develop its procedures
</li>
</ul>
Required Qualifications and Skills
<ul>
<li>Practical engineer or technician diploma (הנדסאי or טכנאי) in mechanical, electrical or equivalent hands-on experience
</li>
<li>At least [X] years of hands-on experience assembling and integrating electromechanical systems, such as R&amp;D setups, industrial machinery, process skids or lab equipment
</li>
<li>Able to read and build from mechanical drawings, P&amp;IDs and electrical schematics
</li>
<li>Experience with stainless-steel tubing and fittings (compression fittings, flanges, tube bending) and with leak-tight assembly
</li>
<li>Experience wiring control panels, sensors and motors
</li>
<li>Confident with hand and power tools and with measuring and test equipment (calipers, torque tools, multimeter)
</li>
<li>Careful, methodical and safety-minded, with a habit of documenting your work
</li>
<li>Independent problem solver, comfortable working on a design that is still evolving
</li>
<li>Good working Hebrew and English (technical documents are in English)
</li>
</ul>
Advantages
<ul>
<li>Licensed electrician (Israeli license, חשמלאי מוסמך or higher): a significant advantage
</li>
<li>TIG welding of stainless steel, or a welding certification
</li>
<li>Experience with vacuum systems and helium leak detection
</li>
<li>Experience with high-temperature systems: heaters, heat tracing and thermal insulation
</li>
<li>Experience handling liquid metals, molten salts or hazardous materials
</li>
<li>Experience with hydrogen or other flammable gases, gas cabinets, or explosion-protected (Ex/ATEX) equipment
</li>
<li>PLC or data-acquisition wiring and basic configuration
</li>
<li>Background in a research lab, national lab or R&amp;D company (for example research institutes, semiconductor equipment or defense industries)
</li>
<li>Basic machining (lathe, mill) for making fixtures and adapters
</li>
<li>Willingness to travel abroad for installation and commissioning at the customer site
</li>
</ul>
