ROLE OVERVIEW
The Performance Engineer (O&M) will play an important role in driving value for Pivot Energy’s distributed generation assets. This role is highly collaborative, supporting internal and external stakeholders in the establishment of Pivot Energy as an industry-leading ESG-focused IPP. As our portfolio grows, we cannot rely on manual oversight. Your ability to build automated "sanity checks" on our data ensures that asset managers and service teams are working on the most impactful tasks, directly protecting the IRR of our renewable assets.
The Performance Engineer will ensure that current and future performance of the assets is in line with project proformas. We are seeking a data-driven engineer to bridge the gap between raw SCADA data and actionable field maintenance. In this role, you will not just report on underperformance; you will diagnose it and support action plans with asset managers to improve performance. You will leverage your background in electrical engineering and data science to identify systemic issues, optimize energy yield, and provide recommendations to asset modeling and DAS system interface as well as field service work.
