The Role
This person will help scale the software and infrastructure underpinning the telemetry, analytics, dispatch optimization, and deployment support systems required to operate more deployed sites and more complex operating modes. They will turn site data into actionable operational intelligence for monitoring, incident response, root cause analysis, predictive maintenance, dispatch decisions, and deployment/operations troubleshooting.
What You Will Do
Scale telemetry data infrastructure so Project Engineering can reliably ingest, organize, query, and trust site data across a growing fleet of deployed assets
Build analytics and operational intelligence workflows for site health monitoring, incident investigation, root cause analysis, and predictive maintenance
Support dispatch optimization and deployment/operations troubleshooting by analyzing telemetry, logs, communications behavior, state machine behavior, and site performance
Must-Haves
Advanced experience with SQL, data modeling, and building data pipelines using orchestration tools such as Airflow, Prefect, or Dagster
Experience working in a production data environment, including cloud infrastructure, Linux-based systems, logs, APIs, observability, and reliability tradeoffs
Experience building internal data tools, dashboards, or operational workflows actively used by stakeholders
Strong documentation and communication skills; experience working cross-functionally with technical and non-technical stakeholders
Python skills or proficiency in a similar language
Nice-to-Haves
Experience with time series analysis, mathematical optimization, energy systems, sensor data, hardware systems, or field operations
Why Join Us
Direct ownership of a high-leverage operational system shaping how we monitor and optimize a growing fleet of energy sites
Work at the intersection of data, software, and real-world operations connecting telemetry to incident response and dispatch optimization
Build upon an existing foundation with immediate scaling impact as the fleet expands
