Job description

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 hiring a Senior Technical Recruiter to attract and close world-class talent across engineering, hardware, AI, and quant. You'll own full-cycle hiring and partner closely with hiring managers to meet Fuse's ambitious growth plans.

• Develop tailored sourcing strategies to engage top-tier talent across software engineering, artificial intelligence, trading and data science/quant from high-growth tech companies, trading firms, hedge funds and other elite technical organisations

• Negotiate offers and close world-class talent in competitive markets
• Develop and maintain strong relationships with hiring managers and department heads to understand their needs and timelines

Requirements

• 4+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, with a strong focus on technical roles (software engineering, hardware/electronics engineering, AI, data science or similar) in high-performance environments
• Background hiring at companies known for a high bar, whether agency (trading firms, hedge funds, HFTs, tech) or in-house at scaling tech companies
• Proven ability to identify and close candidates with niche, in-demand skill sets
• Comfortable working across a range of technical disciplines, not limited to one specialism
• Ability to develop and maintain strong relationships with hiring managers and candidates
• Excellent relationship-building and influencing skills across all levels of an organisation
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Experience with ATS tools, reporting and data-driven recruiting practices

Benefits

• Competitive salary and eligibility for equity
