Summary
Fuse Energy is seeking a Senior/Lead Backend Engineer to build the core digital infrastructure for their integrated energy platform, including real-time digital twins and high-volume data pipelines. The role involves working across the full backend to support energy generation, grid infrastructure, and consumer-facing applications.
