  • Dashboard Development: Create and maintain automated Power BI or Tableau dashboards that visualize key client metrics such as congestion, renewable curtailment, renewable penetration, and generator availability.
  • Regulatory Analysis: Monitor and summarize stakeholder proceedings from the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), CAISO, and FERC that impact Western wholesale market design.
  • Ad-Hoc Market Forensics: Conduct "post-mortem" analyses on high-price events, grid stress days, adverse market settlement outcomes, to identify the root causes in support of client management strategic decision making.

  • Education: Bachelor's degree in Economics, Engineering, Mathematics, Data Science, or a related field.
  • Experience: 1+ years of experience in the energy industry (consulting, utility, or regulatory agency).
  • Energy Market Fundamentals a plus: A foundational understanding of how wholesale electricity is bought and sold (Day-Ahead vs. Real-Time markets).
  • Western Interconnection Familiarity a plus: Familiarity with the geography of the West, the unique role/impact of hydroelectric power and solar curtailment in the region, and the on-going development of energy markets.

·       Skills:

  • SQL: Ability to write queries to pull data from relational databases.
  • Data Visualization: Proficiency in Tableau or Power BI to build interactive reports.
  • Excel: Advanced skills (Pivot Tables, Power Query, VBA) for quick "back-of-the-envelope" modeling.
  • Scripting: Basic knowledge of Python (Pandas/NumPy) or R for automating repetitive data tasks.
  • High degree of organizational aptitude: The ability to manage multiple projects, tasks, and clients simultaneously.
