We Strive to Drive Power Innovation Through Data

Our team mandate is simple: we aim to bridge the gap between real-world system data and provide consumable business intelligence to help steer the future of how we monitor and manage the grid. Our fast-growing team is responsible for the capture, curation, utilization, and application of time-series data, including Synchrophasors and SCADA.

We seek the curious and creative, the self-motivated, and those driven by the pursuit of driving change.

Job Summary: We Seek Joint Expertise in Power Systems & Data Storytelling

Our ET Strategic Initiatives Team Is Seeking An Experienced Engineer With a Strong Background In Data Engineering Technology And Development To Help Further Our Business’ Power System Analytic Capabilities. An Ideal Candidate Is Driven By The Pursuit Of Excellence – This Is Not a Job For Wrench-turning, But Rather For Those Compelled To Identify Problems And Solve Them With Critical Thinking Abilities And Working With a Multi-faceted Team. Candidates Must Bring The Ability To Identify Gaps In Knowledge And Organizational Capability And Pinpoint Uses For Data And Storytelling Techniques To Ensure We Serve The Business With Improved Data-decision Making Technology.

Forging new relationships across the organization in search of applicable use cases and opportunities to use time series data as a backbone for analysis and decision-making and guiding/building out bespoke solutions.
Ongoing account management – working with existing relationships to meet established project requirements and ensure any analytic/application outputs meet the stated objective of customer established requirements.

Trial and error through agile methods with the established stakeholder group; in the pursuit of lightweight applications and capabilities, we operate through constant contact and focus on results and proving value, not through over-engineered top-down solutioning.
