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.
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.
But we’re not stopping there. 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 centers and other energy-intensive industries.
As we continue to develop cutting-edge technologies and sustainable energy solutions, we are looking to hire a versatile Mechanical Engineer with a broad engineering interest who is passionate about solving complex problems in the renewable energy sector. This role goes beyond traditional engineering. You'll engage in technical problem-solving and renewable energy engineering whilst also driving business development, market research and techno-feasibility evaluations.

  • Ensure all technologies comply with safety, health and environmental regulations and standards
  • Engage in a diverse range of projects, from feasibility studies and system design through certification, design-for-manufacture and production launch

Requirements
  • Bachelor's degree in Process, Chemical or Mechanical Engineering or a related field 
  • Strong technical foundation in either engineering design, commissioning or in an operational engineering setting
  • Proven track record of solving technical engineering problems in your given field
  • Excellent analytical skills with the ability to think creatively and innovatively
  • Strong communication and teamwork skills with the ability to work effectively in a collaborative environment
  • Strong organisational skills and attention to detail with the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously
  • Minimum 3 years of experience
