Requires 3+ years of data science experience with proficiency in Python, numerical modelling, and machine learning deployment. Experience with Bayesian methods and the energy or IoT domain is highly preferred.
Full job description
Purpose
You will design and develop software and data science products that provide electricity utilities key insights into the state and operation of their grids. Beginning with detection and disaggregation of DER resources, your work will help to build up the picture of how grids can be managed more efficiently and dynamically, paving the way for the connection of more renewables, sooner.
Key Accountabilities
Design, build, and maintain software products and data science models capable of detecting, characterising or predicting key components, properties and events of electricity grids.
Obtain data from disparate sources to inform and support modelling, by performing data discovery and/or developing automated retrieval pipelines as needed
Ensure software and model capabilities, coverage and performance align with customer requirements, directly engaging with customers from time to time in order to do so
Collaborate with Software Engineers, Data Engineers, and other Product teams to understand data science requirements and translate them into technical solutions
Establish and follow data, scientific, MLOps and software engineering best practices including testing, validation, documentation, monitoring, version control and code reviews
Contribute to data science strategy and architectural decisions
Core Requirements
Experience: 3+ years in data science roles with demonstrable impact. PhD not required, but completion of a doctorate with a relevant focus on data science – especially Bayesian methods – may be counted towards this requirement.
Software engineering fundamentals: proficiency in Python or similar language, architecture, system design, version control, testing practices, code review, CI/CD
