Job Description:
About David Energy David Energy is creating a new kind of power
company. We offer cheaper and cleaner energy than traditional
Retail Electricity Providers (REPs) can, and we do so economically
because we can tap into renewable supply (e.g. solar) and
controllable capacity (e.g. batteries) anywhere it exists,
including "behind" customers’ electricity meters. We’re a series A
company aiming to run the grid on clean energy 24/7/365. We’re
rapidly scaling our "Beat the Utility" product which guarantees
small commercial customers that their total electric spend will be
less than their incumbent utility. We can make this guarantee
because our technology and risk management unlock value that is not
available to the utility. We're currently operating in NYC (NYISO
Zone J) and scaling toward hundreds of new customer locations per
month, with plans to expand to additional zones and ISOs across the
Northeast. We are looking for a senior data scientist to own
analyses and data analytics around our growing network of energy
assets in concert with real-time energy markets. By shifting the
energy usage of our customers to align with the cheapest and
cleanest wholesale energy available, we can offer dramatically
lower rates with much cleaner energy. Making those decisions
automatically at scale requires excellent data science. In this
role, you will Solve complex business problems (e.g., cost
allocation, error detection, data imputation) to deliver insights
