Overview

Inertia is taking the most direct, scientifically-proven path to commercializing fusion, leveraging the only successful achievement of fusion ignition, using a process that was pioneered at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL). With groundbreaking innovation, transformative technology, and multi-year investment, Inertia is committed to commercializing fusion energy in the next decade.

Our summer interns work on real R&D for 10–12 weeks. You'll own a scoped project with a dedicated mentor, work alongside our scientists and engineers in Livermore, and present your results at an end-of-summer poster session. We match interns to projects based on background and interest.

What you'll get to do

Each intern gets a project with a defined question and deliverables you can finish in one summer. Projects for 2027 may come from any of these areas:

• Fusion physics and simulation: model target performance, laser–plasma interactions, and the conditions, material response, and chemistr...
