Supply Chain Manager - China

Fuse Energy · China (Remote) · Full-time · Posted 2026-10-19

Workplace: remote

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 looking for a Supply Chain Manager to join our China supply chain team. As an early member, you’ll own supplier selection, pricing and cost for our hardware, working directly with our Head of Supply Chain China and our UK finance and R&D teams. We're looking for a commercially minded sourcer with deep technical acumen, who can tear a supplier quote down to material, process and margin, and negotiate directly with top-tier suppliers to win on price, lead time and capacity.
