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.
This isn't a traditional operations role. We're launching an entirely new business unit in Australia and you'll be one of the people building it from the ground up in Melbourne. There's no playbook. You'll be a Swiss army knife, taking on whatever needs doing to get the business live and scaling.
The pace is fast and the role is demanding. In return you'll get huge ownership, direct exposure to leadership and the chance to shape how Fuse operates in a brand new market.
