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 raised $170M from top-tier investors including Multicoin, Balderton, Lakestar, Accel, Creandum, Lowercarbon, Ribbit, Box Group and strategic angels like Nico Rosberg, the Co-Founder of Solana and GPs behind Meta, Revolut, Spotify, Uber and more.
n 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.
n But we're not stopping there. We're also building the Energy Network: a decentralized 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 centers and other energy-intensive industries.

To accelerate this mission, we are looking for a Senior/Lead Recruiter (Infrastructure) to join our team. You will play a pivotal role in scaling our physical infrastructure development footprint from the ground up, focusing on hiring across Grid Interconnection, Data Center Project Development, Land Acquisition, and High-Voltage/Substation Engineering. This is a real opportunity to join an ambitious startup at the forefront of the energy transition and help build the foundational workforce for a new kind of integrated energy infrastructure.
