Director, Engineering - Machine Learning / AI

New Yesterday

At Fuse, we're building a fully integrated energy company, from developing solar, wind, and hydrogen to power trading & distributed energy installations. We sell directly to energy consumers, cutting out the middleman to reduce costs and pass on savings to customers. Were also building the Energy Network: a decentralized network of smart devices where users get rewarded in Energy Dollars for electrifying their homes, shifting usage to off-peak hours, and helping balance the grid.
