You'll help shape the future of energy flexibility. As a Data Scientist, you develop forecasting and optimization models that make industrial and commercial energy systems smarter, greener, and more profitable — driving our Flex product for automated energy trading and intelligent control of distributed energy resources.
coneva builds data-driven software solutions to reduce electricity costs for industrial and commercial customers — from intelligent energy management to battery storage and flexibility trading. As part of the Parigroup Energy division, we combine technological innovation with a stable, long-term-oriented company environment.
Your Responsibilities
- Develop and improve optimization models for battery scheduling, EV charging and energy cost reduction.
- Build forecasting models for consumption, PV generation, charging demand and market-related signals.
- Apply statistical methods (time series analysis, regression, hypothesis testing) to analyze energy data
- Analyze operational and pilot project data to identify optimization opportunities
- Work with real customer systems, messy operational data and practical constraints such as runtime, reliability and cost.
- Collaborate closely with engineers, product colleagues and energy experts to bring models into production.
- Support sales with requirements analysis and system simulations
What You Bring
- Strong Python skills (Jupyter, Pandas, Numpy, Scipy, cvxpy) and experience connecting to diverse data sources (databases, REST APIs, file formats)
- Degree in a scientific or engineering discipline (e.g., electrical engineering, physics, mathematics, computer science, energy systems)
- Proven experience with convex optimization and mixed-integer linear programming (MILP)
- In-depth knowledge of electricity markets, especially spot market trading in Germany
- A pragmatic builder and analytical mindset: you care about shipping robust solutions, not just elegant models and enjoy in turning insights into interactive notebooks and visualizations
- Clear communication and ownership in a fast-moving, collaborative startup environment.
- Fluent English (C1); German is a plus but not required — we value curiosity and willingness to learn over existing fluency
- Bonus: experience with commercial energy technology components (batteries, EV chargers, PV systems)
