About Meraki Labs
Meraki Labs is a deep tech venture studio based in Bangalore, founded in 2020 by serial entrepreneur Mukesh Bansal (co-founder of Myntra and Cult.fit). The studio works on applied AI products and other deep tech incubations, operating as a sector-agnostic incubator focused on building and backing early-stage, tech-driven companies.
Role Overview
Focus Area: Plasma Physics & Multi physics Simulation
We are looking for an exceptional Computational Fusion Scientist / Engineer to develop high-fidelity numerical models and simulations of fusion plasmas and reactor systems at Meraki Labs.
You will work at the intersection of plasma physics, numerical methods, high-performance computing, and fusion engineering, developing simulation capabilities that help us understand plasma behaviour, optimize reactor configurations, predict performance, and guide experimental and engineering design.
This is a highly technical role for someone who enjoys translating first-principles physics into computational models.
Key Responsibilities
Develop numerical models of fusion plasmas using MHD,



kinetic, fluid, hybrid and/or particle-based approaches.
Simulate plasma equilibrium, stability, confinement, transport, heating and particle behaviour.
Model relevant plasma phenomena including:
Magnetohydrodynamic instabilities
Plasma transport and turbulence
Magnetic field configurations and plasma equilibrium
Particle orbits and energetic particle behaviour
Plasma heating and current drive
Plasma-wall interactions
Fusion reaction rates and power balance
Develop multiphysics simulations coupling plasma behaviour with electromagnetics, thermal systems, structural mechanics and other reactor physics where required.
Build reduced-order and system-level models to rapidly explore large fusion reactor design spaces.
Perform parameter sweeps, sensitivity analysis and optimization of plasma and reactor configurations.
Develop, validate and benchmark simulation codes against analytical mod
