Also, you will develop and maintain solutions that help the implementation of sites in an automated way, such as customer-specific tooling to configure meta data and data connection details.

Furthermore, we are constantly striving to improve our infrastructure, processes, and data quality of renewable energy assets. You are expected to work in a continuous improvement cycle, participating in internal projects or tasks to improve the team’s day-to-day work and processes.

We are made up of hard-working, fun-loving people who are passionate about making the world better. We are a very international team spread across multiple locations, with a team spirit that is truly hard to beat! We work with agile methodologies such as Kanban and Scrum.

• Perform root cause analysis of production errors and resolve technical issues
• When needed, participate in internal projects aiming to achieve a more global and strategic goal within the team, always in the context of automatic ways to improve the implementation and QA processes.
• Team up with other teammates or developers across different teams to achieve common goals.
• Take over and own tools developed by other teams that help IS in automatizing an implementation process. This includes occasional support to the IE when issues on the tools are discovered
• Contribute with your feedback and ideas on our processes and way of working, so that we continuously improve as a team.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED TO BE SUCCESSFUL

We are looking for a team member who is systematic and autonomous - but who also enjoys being a part of a tight-knit team. You feel comfortable working with others when needed, able to share ownership of tasks and communicate effectively with peers. This also means that you are effective at managing multiple tasks of varying complexities and are driven by continuous learning and growth.
