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.
As AI drives unprecedented demand for power and data centre capacity, the bottleneck is no longer chips: it's energy, grid infrastructure and the ability to deliver new capacity at speed. This is a remote role based in the US. You'll take data centre projects from concept through to Ready-to-Build and energisation, owning the technical and development workstreams that turn a site from an opportunity into a deliverable project, across site selection, power strategy, grid connections, planning, engineering, design development, permitting, utility engagement and delivery readiness.
Responsibilities- Lead data center developments from early-stage opportunity through Ready-to-Build and energisation
- Assess sites from technical, planning, power, and infrastructure perspectives
- Develop grid connection and power strategies with National Grid, DNOs, and utility providers
- Support planning, permitting, and stakeholder engagement processes
- Identify and mitigate technical and development risks
- Ensure projects are deliverable, scalable, and aligned with construction requirements
Requirements
- Experience developing data centers or large-scale infrastructure projects
- Strong technical understanding of data center infrastructure, including power, cooling, and utility systems, with the ability to evaluate engineering decisions and challenge technical assumptions
- Strong understanding of ERCOT planning and grid connection processes
- Experience taking projects from early-stage development through design, permitting, and delivery readiness
- Highly analytical, self-directed, and comfortable with significant ownership
Benefits
- Competitive salary and eligibility for equity
