Summary of Position Functions
We are seeking an entry-level Energy Engineer to support data-driven management reporting. This position will collect, organize, validate, and maintain information from regional teams, bringing it together into consistent reports that help leadership understand business and project performance.

Support the initial consolidation of historical information and the recurring collection of new data.
Data Quality and Maintenance
Review data for completeness, accuracy, consistency, and timeliness.
Identify duplicate records, missing fields, unusual values, and discrepancies between sources; work with data owners to resolve them.
Maintain consolidated datasets, reporting files, and supporting documentation.
Establish and follow recurring update schedules, validation checks, and version-control procedures.
Document data sources, field definitions, calculation methods, reporting assumptions, and ownership.
Follow established requirements for data access and confidential business information.
Analysis and Management Reporting
Prepare recurring reports, dashboards, and management summaries showing regional and company-wide performance.
Analyze trends, variances, and exceptions across regions, projects, and reporting periods.
Help track measures such as project status, project development activity, implementation schedules, energy savings, and financial performance, as assigned.
