Fuse Energy
Fuse Energy is an energy startup on a mission to make energy abundant and affordable, fast. We combine first-principles thinking with cutting-edge technology to build a radically better energy system.
We've raised over $200M from top-tier investors including Balderton, Lakestar, Accel, Creandum, Lowercarbon, Ribbit, 20VC, Hummingbird and Collaborative Fund, alongside strategic angels including Nico Rosberg and GPs behind Meta, Revolut, Spotify and Uber.
We're building a fully integrated energy company: developing our own solar, batteries and other generation projects, building our own hardware, improving and developing grid infrastructure, trading power in real time, using AI across the business, and installing distributed energy in homes. By selling directly to consumers, we cut out the middleman, lower costs and pass the savings on to our customers.
We're hiring an O&M Technician to carry out planned and corrective maintenance across our Solar PV and BESS sites. You'll be based on site day to day and act as a key point of contact for operational matters as they come up, working closely with subcontractors, landowners and clients where needed. You'll bring hands-on experience in solar PV, BESS or electrical maintenance, and you'll report into the Operations and Maintenance Manager.
