๐Ÿข About Renewable Energy Systems

Renewable Energy Systems is a global leader in driving the clean energy transition, with ambitious plans to add 22 GW of new capacity in the next five years. Working here means contributing directly to a sustainable future while being part of a mission-driven team that values innovation and impact.

About This Role

As the Reporting, Analytics and AI Technical Lead, you will architect and deliver the data foundation that powers decision-making across the enterprise. This role combines deep technical expertise in Azure, Fabric, and AI with strategic leadership to ensure data is trusted, scalable, and actionable for the company's clean energy goals.

๐Ÿ’ก A Day in the Life

Your day might start with a stand-up with your data engineering team to review progress on a new semantic model for wind farm performance. Mid-morning, you could meet with business stakeholders to define KPIs for a new analytics dashboard, then spend the afternoon hands-on in Azure Fabric designing a data pipeline that integrates AI-driven natural language queries for field operations.

๐ŸŽฏ Who Renewable Energy Systems Is Looking For

  • Expert in semantic data modeling (physical, dimensional, logical) with proven experience in BI patterns and enterprise data architecture.
  • Hands-on with Microsoft Azure, Fabric, and data lakehouse architectures, able to design and implement end-to-end data solutions.
  • Skilled in AI-enabled analytics, including natural language querying and explainable AI outputs, with a focus on accuracy and governance.
  • A collaborative leader who can coach teams, manage stakeholders, and translate business requirements into scalable data products.

๐Ÿ“ Tips for Applying to Renewable Energy Systems

1

Highlight specific Azure, Fabric, and Purview projects you've led, including the scale and impact of the data models you delivered.

2

Demonstrate your AI analytics experience with concrete examples of how you validated AI-generated answers for accuracy and business use.

3

Showcase your leadership in data governance and security, especially in regulated or high-stakes environments like energy.

4

Tailor your resume to emphasize semantic modeling and enterprise architecture, not just general data engineering.

5

Mention any experience with renewable energy or sustainability data to align with the company's mission.

โœ‰๏ธ What to Emphasize in Your Cover Letter

['Your passion for clean energy and how your data leadership can directly accelerate renewable energy deployment.', 'Specific examples of designing scalable, trusted data platforms using Azure/Fabric that enabled advanced analytics and AI.', 'Your approach to bridging business needs with technical solutions, especially in defining KPIs and reporting requirements.', 'How you foster a culture of data trust and explainability, ensuring AI outputs are validated and actionable.']
