Accountabilities

You will deliver technical workstreams across data engineering, architecture, and applied data science, translating client requirements into reliable data solutions and analytical models while ensuring quality, scalability, and clear technical communication.

Explore and assess utility datasets, including advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) interval data, SCADA, GIS, asset information, customer programs, and billing records.

Design, develop, test, and maintain repeatable ETL/ELT pipelines that ingest, transform, reconcile, and deliver data from databases, files, APIs, and other approved sources.

Build reusable Python and SQL components for data cleansing, standardization, aggregation, validation, and feature preparation.

Profile source data and implement automated quality checks covering completeness, validity, consistency, uniqueness, and freshness.

Develop record-matching and entity-resolution logic to reconcile customer, asset, device, program, and operational records.

Troubleshoot pipeline failures, data inconsistencies, and performance issues, documenting findings and corrective actions.

Translate business, analytical, and operational requirements into documented data architecture and integration designs.

Develop conceptual, logical, and physical data models, entity relationship diagrams, schemas, data dictionaries, and source-to-target mappings.

Design data flows connecting source systems, staging and storage layers, analytical datasets, models, and downstream applications.

Evaluate and document architectural trade-offs involving relational databases, warehouses, lakehouses, batch processing, APIs, scalability, performance, maintainability, and cost.

Incorporate client requirements for data ownership, access controls, sensitive information, retention, lineage, and auditability into solution designs.

Develop and validate forecasting models, classification approaches, anomaly detection, clustering methods, and prioritization models using utility datasets.

Address modeling challenges such as overfitting, class imbalance, sampling bias, and time-dependent validation.

Monitor model performance and support documented recalibration, retraining, and ongoing model updates.

Connect analytical models to reliable data pipelines and reproducible datasets, coordinating with client deployment teams where appropriate.

Clearly communicate model assumptions, uncertainty, limitations, and the distinction between observed, inferred, and predicted results.

Participate in requirements workshops, technical interviews, architecture reviews, and client working sessions.

Prepare technical reports, process maps, architecture documentation, and analytical presentations.

Deliver assigned work within agreed scope, schedules, budgets, and quality expectations.

Identify and escalate data-access constraints, technical dependencies, methodological limitations, and delivery risks.

Contribute to peer reviews, reusable technical methods, and guidance for less-experienced colleagues.

Use AI-assisted development tools responsibly, validating generated outputs and protecting confidential client information.

Requirements

The ideal candidate combines practical data engineering expertise with applied statistical and machine learning experience, a solid understanding of utility-sector data, and the ability to communicate technical solutions effectively to diverse stakeholders.

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Engineering, or a closely related quantitative discipline.

4–5 years of relevant professional experience, including experience in the utility sector, with hands-on contributions to data engineering, applied data science, and data architecture or integration design.

Demonstrated experience building and maintaining repeatable data pipelines and integrations beyond one-time data preparation or exploratory notebooks.

Experience designing data models, schemas, relationships, and source-to-target mappings, with the ability to explain architectural decisions.
