Through a subscription model, Inspire allows customers to access 100% clean energy for one flat monthly price. Now customers can pay one flat rate for their electricity supply each month, while supporting a more sustainable future.

In-office locations: Santa Monica, CA, USA and Philadelphia, PA, USA.
Remote location(s): United States.
As a certified B Corp, our mission is truly woven into the fabric of what we do. As you grow professionally, you are doing good for the planet by helping us to transform the way consumers access clean energy and accelerate the world’s transition to a net-zero carbon future. 
Inspire’s Data Platform team consists of data engineers, data scientists, and analytics engineers working together to solve big-impact problems across operations, product, and analytics domains. Our team values growth, collaboration, honesty, and execution, creating an environment where we can learn from our failures to drive success. We take a product-driven, agile approach to our platform, driving measurable growth and meaningful outcomes every single sprint.
We are the backbone of technology at Inspire. Our data solutions power our urgent mission to provide consumers with access to clean energy and forge the world forward towards a net-zero carbon future. Talk about impact! Supercharge our acquisition efforts into new channels and markets. Expand our product offering to support Carbon Neutral Gas. Connect to the customer by generating consumer-friendly subscription pricing and communicating environmental impact in engaging ways. Internally, we manufacture the engine that informs strategy from how we purchase clean energy to how we price an individual customer.
How do you fit in? Front and center. You’ll work on challenging projects that require resourcefulness. Expect complex SQL data modeling in Snowflake, writing scalable python workflows in Airflow, leveraging Spark for parallelized data processing, and an immersion in energy data, domains, and contexts.

  4. Communication, and the ability to translate between the domains of business problems and technical solutions with ease
  5. Team-oriented development: building modular & re-usable tools, writing maintainable code, team mentorship, owning technical and business documentation
Some Year 1 Deliverables:
  • Expand the capabilities of Inspire’s core data platform to support incremental business lines and product features
    • Maintenance and scalability improvements for data services and infrastructure
    • Extending our platform to support new product offerings and markets (e.g. Natural Gas Supply)
    • Platform improvements to enhance digital and direct acquisition of customers
    • Improving data quality and observability within our data infrastructure
  • Partner with Technology and Member Operations business stakeholders to design and deliver new data-driven integrations
  • Partner with other engineering teams to guide refactors of existing data infrastructure to improve data quality and features.
Here's what you'll bring to the table:
  • Must Have
    • 4+ years of experience in a data engineering role
    • Strong SQL skills querying and transforming large datasets in cloud-based data warehouses (we use Snowflake)
    • Experience creating production-grade ELT pipelines with python-based data orchestration tools at scale (we use Airflow)

    • Experience with dbt
    • Spark data processing
    • AWS & ML Flow infrastructure
    • Contextual work in the energy industry
