Were hiring an Energy Utilities Subject Matter Expert to be the technical credibility behind every business client conversation. This is a client-facing role, not a back-office analyst position: you will sit across the table from plant owners, CFOs, grid operations managers, and hospital facilities directors, and you need to be able to look at their actual energy-relevant verticals: industrial manufacturing (compressed air, motors, humidification, demand charges), grid and water utilities, and building/healthcare energy (HVAC, generators, critical power).

• Sanity-check on every energy related proposal, offerings from the DU/BU.
• Be up-to-date on the innovation, Guide and prepare critical offerings, service for Energy customer and help to build strong skill set inside the organization.
