Wellington City, New Zealand Octopus Energy Full time

**Help us make a big green dent in the universe. **We're on a mission to drive the global renewable energy revolution, and we need loads more people to help us make our vision a reality.

Since 2015, Octopus has been on a mission to bring affordable, green energy to the world. With the help of our in-house developed technology platform, Kraken, we’ve become the 4th largest energy supplier in the UK, opened retailers in 7 other countries, and licensed our software to retail giants including E.ON in the UK and Origin Energy in Australia. We’ve reinvented energy products with smart, data driven tariffs to balance customer demand with renewable generation - and we’re the biggest investor in renewable generation in the UK.

We launched Octopus Energy in New Zealand last year and are focusing on bringing market leading innovative products to our customers. As such, we’re looking to add a data analyst to join our NZ team.

Data analytics has been at the heart of Octopus’ success, driving insight across all facets of the business. We drive understanding of the performance and optimization of operations teams. Our deep knowledge of the industry and the market allows us to design innovative smart tariffs. We crunch billions of data points to train machine learning models to forecast each customer’s usage. We do it by hiring clever, curious, and self-driven people, enabling them with modern data tools and giving them lots of autonomy.

Our data team consists of scientists and analysts in each of our retail businesses, and a global data engineering team to support them.

**What you'll do**:

- Focus on be building out analytics: reports and dashboards, regulatory market submissions (and the data pipelines that feed them) to support operations, and sales and marketing
- Become a domain expert, supporting management’s questions, and most importantly, making sure the right questions are being asked.
- You’ll be involved in some really exciting projects, and doing a lot of analysis to help steer these new products. You will even need to operate and run some of these

**Our Data Stack**:

- AWS cloud infrastructure
- Databricks Delta Lake for data lake and warehouse storage and querying
- dbt for data modelling and transformations
- Lightdash as our BI tool
- Spark for large data processing
- Python data ecosystem as main scripting and analytics language
- Jupyter and Jupyter Hub for notebook analytics and collaboration
- Airflow for task scheduling
- Kubernetes for data services and task orchestration
- Github, Circle CI, Grafana and Prometheus for version control, deployment and monitoring
- Streamlit for serving of data products

**What you'll need**:

- A passion for working in energy and contributing to the energy transition
- Curiosity and self-drive - as an early data employee, its essential you have the initiative to make decisions yourself, and can find solutions to novel problems without lots of help and support
- An engineering mindset - eager to build robust tools

You will also need experience with some of the below technologies:

- Python (scripting and basic app development)
- Writing queries in SQL
- Building reports and dashboards in a BI tool
- Statistical modelling & time series forecasting
- Experience using github workflows

**What you'll love about us**:

- ** Our company culture - **we won best company to work for in 2019 and our CEO, Greg has recorded a podcast about our culture and how we empower our people
- ** Flexible working environment - **genuine work life balance here, we are in the top 5 companies in the UK, we treat you as a human, and do our best to make work and life merge smoothly together
- ** Equity Options Scheme - **you own your own part of the business, share options in the whole Octopus Energy Group so we all work together towards success
- ** Office culture - **have a certain tech requirement? We’ll do our best to get it. Our offices are also stocked with fruit, breakfast, great coffee and soft drinks. Weekly on a Friday we all get together (this happens virtually too) for company updates and drinks - we call it Family Dinner
- ** Social Events - **we sponsor YeoValley’s summer festival, valleyfest, every year for our big offsite Summer party (we take our kids too) and we also aim to have 3 parties a year
- ** Fitness -** weekly yoga, secure bike storage, showers and free gym access in the Wellington office
