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 building a cutting-edge AI team. As an Applied AI Engineer, this role suits someone with the technical depth of a backend engineer who is specifically interested in applied AI and how it can improve the energy experience for our customers and our internal operations. You'll work on consumer features such as the Energy Co-Pilot and speedy onboarding (using VLM and LLM tools) and build AI tools that make teams across Fuse more productive.
