⚡ Energy Systems Data Consultant (Medior) 📊
🌍 Now partnering with a leading company in the energy sector
📍 🗣️ Fluent Dutch and/or French English required | 👤 Medior profile (3 years)
Are you a data-savvy professional with a genuine passion for the energy transition? 🔋 We're looking for a medior consultant with proficient coding skills and strong interest in the energy sector to help build the right data infrastructure, run and analyze simulations, and deliver state-of-the-art studies to plan the energy transition ☀️💨
We need someone who will always question the scenario data — someone able and willing to challenge projections (PV, wind, H2, thermal units...) for Belgium or other EU countries, and assess whether they're ambitious or realistic. 🔍
🌟 About the Role
Expert knowledge on data analysis (data mining, data gathering/processing in VBA, Excel, R/Python), data visualization, and energy systems scenarios. The consultant will support different tasks across projects within the SMA team:
👉 Use, and where possible improve, data management processes at SMA
👉 Contribute to and improve data collection processes and definitions — creation of scenarios and model-building datasets
👉 Support model building, including quality checks on built models
👉 Support impact assessment of model building (demand, renewables, flexibility & storage assumptions) and quality checks on models and results
🛠️ Example Tasks
🔸 Consolidate historical data into a model input dataset
🔸 Collect projection scenarios from EU countries and challenge the data against defined storylines
🔸 Create & review tools in R/Python/VBA/Excel to input/change parameters in the ANTARES model
🔸 Use and improve visualizations of simulation outputs (R, Power BI, QGIS, etc.) 📈
🔸 Critically analyze algorithm results and help identify key trends
🔸 Data engineering and interfaces between tools
🔸 Other tasks (not yet defined)
✅ Hard Skills
🔹 R or Python (must-have) — proficiency in one required, experience with both a plus 🐍
🔹 Excel (must-have) and VBA (nice-to-have) — used for analysis and as an interface for R/Python scripts
🔹 ANTARES (nice-to-have) — RTE's economic dispatch tool for simulating electricity markets hourly; input/output interface knowledge plus general understanding valued
🔹 Any experience with market simulations is a plus
✅ Soft Skills
🔹 Medior profile — 3 years' experience minimum
🔹 Knowledge of and strong interest in the energy market
🔹 Ability to work independently and in a team
🔹 Analytical and innovative mindset
🔹 Fluent Dutch and/or French, plus English 🗣️
