  • Fuse Energy is a forward-thinking renewable energy startup on a mission to deliver a terawatt of renewable energy - fast. We're combining first principles thinking with cutting edge technology to build a radically better energy system.

    We're creating a fully integrated energy company: from developing solar, wind and hydrogen projects to real time power trading and distributed energy installations. By selling directly to consumers, we cut out the middleman, lower costs and pass on savings to customers.

    We're also building the Energy Network - a decentralised platform of smart devices that rewards users in Energy Dollars for electrifying their homes, shifting usage to off peak hours, and helping balance the grid. This network strengthens grid stability - a critical foundation for scaling AI data centres and other energy intensive industries.

    We are hiring an Electrical Engineer with strong experience in high voltage design and power systems to support the delivery of utility scale energy infrastructure. This is a hands on engineering role focused on real asset delivery.

    • Contribute to rapid project execution, solving technical challenges in a fast moving delivery environment
    Qualifications
