About The Role

Are you ready to apply Make sure you understand all the responsibilities and tasks associated with this role before proceeding.
Ecotricity, the UK's first true green energy provider, has a strong internal team supporting and developing solutions across multiple mission critical platforms including Databricks on AWS, SQL, Power BI and other cloud centric data solutions. This technical hands-on role, of Data Engineer, will contribute to our delivery of projects, BAU, and helping Ecotricity become more efficient by leveraging our data.
About You
You will have considerable technical experience and a passion for developing data solutions. Handling data in any format, data modelling and ETL processes will all come naturally to you. You will have a demonstrable technical skillset as engineering skills are paramount to this role. Knowledge of the Energy industry would be useful, but not necessary.
You will be comfortable working with project managers and product owners, keeping stakeholders and management continually informed, and presenting and demoing solutions. You will have good communication skills and can adjust to each type of audience.
We will actively support you, but as a potentially remote role you should be self motivated, delivery driven, and not need to be led. You should strive for best practice and technical excellence and be a person that actively looks for continual improvement opportunities.

Ecotricity is Britain's greenest energy company. When we started back in 1995, we were the first company in the world to provide a new kind of electricity- the green kind.
Our mission was, and remains, to change the way energy is made and used in Britain- by replacing fossil fuels with clean, renewable energy.
We don't just supply green energy, we use the money from our customers' bills to make it ourselves too- we build windmills and sun parks in Britain. We call this 'bills in to mills'. In 2021, we started work on building two new solar parks, and now, in 2022, we're bringing geothermal energy to our customers' fuel mix, a first in the UK. We're also developing green gas mills which will generate 100% green gas from a source that we will never run out of- grass.
We don't just focus on energy though- we built Electric Highways, Britain's leading network of electric vehicle charging points, we helped Forest Green Rovers become the greenest football club in the world, and, in partnership with RSPB, we launched Britain's greenest mobile phone service, Ecotalk + RSPB.
Ecotricity is an equal opportunities employer and is committed to providing equality for all.
