E Source provides predictive data science, research and advisory, and solution services to help utilities make decisions that benefit their customers, their bottom line, and our planet.


What You’ll Do

Research and evaluate software solutions tailored to the utility industry (electric, gas, water). Assess technical capabilities, scalability, and compatibility with existing systems.
Design and prepare comprehensive RFPs to solicit proposals from software vendors, ensuring all technical, functional, and business requirements are clearly defined.
Create comprehensive business cases that justify software investments. Analyze costs, benefits, risks, and return on investment.

Conduct quantitative and qualitative analyses to determine the benefits of proposed investments. Measure performance against expected outcomes.
Work closely with cross-functional teams—including IT, finance, and operations—to align with utility objectives.
Prepare and present reports on findings, recommendations, and progress to senior management and other key stakeholders.
Monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of implemented software solutions and investment plans. Recommend adjustments as needed to enhance productivity and efficiency.


What Will Make You a Good Fit

Deep expertise in utility industry software solutions and technologies.
Strong analytical skills and ability to create detailed business cases and conduct benefit analyses.
Ability to create detailed financial models to represent the costs and benefits of software investments, including capex/opex forecasts, depreciation schedules, and total cost of ownership projections.
Knowledge of the latest trends and technologies in the utility industry.
Exceptional project management skills for investor-owned or municipally owned utilities (1M+ customers) to oversee the software selection and implementation process.

A Little About E Source

Utilities across the US and Canada face the same fundamental, day-to-day challenges: to ensure reliable service for every customer while maintaining and modernizing aging distribution networks and meeting regulatory requirements—all while keeping rates affordable. At the same time, climate change has created a common, universal call to action: to reduce our carbon impact, improve our environment, and ensure the prosperity of future generations.

At E Source, We’re Dedicated To Helping Every Utility Become a Sustainable Utility. That Means Doing The Hard Work It Takes To Achieve Goals That Often Seem At Odds With One Another

Environmental responsibility: Decarbonizing operations, reducing emissions, eliminating water leaks, and finding efficiencies
Reliability: Providing safe, continuous, and consistent service in the face of increasing volatility caused by climate change, including extreme weather, drought, and fire
Equity: Making services and programs truly available to all, especially low- and moderate-income residential customers and small and midsize businesses who are often disproportionately impacted by societal events
Financial stability: Ensuring a bottom line that affords capital and operational expenditures while enabling innovation and giving back to our communities

E Source blends industry-leading research, predictive data science, and solution services to help utilities make better decisions to serve their customers, their bottom line, and our planet. With a commitment to practical innovation, we use more than three decades of utility-focused experience and our unique solution set to help our clients become a Sustainable Utility.


Benefits

We offer excellent insurance packages, including medical, dental, and vision plans; company-paid life insurance; company-paid long- and short-term disability insurance; and medical and dependent-care flexible spending plans.
We provide a flexible time off (FTO) program; E Source employees can take as many paid days off per year as they need, with manager approval, while fulfilling their work obligations and ensuring proper coverage of their responsibilities.
We offer flexible schedules, flexible work locations, and a paid parental leave benefit.
We provide a 401(k)/RRSP plan with a 3% employer match.

The budgeted salary for this position is $250,000 - $350,000 USD (range includes base salary + annual bonus). Actual pay will be adjusted based on experience.

This role will require up to 80% travel based on business development needs.

All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, or status as a protected veteran.
