Candidate Requirements:


  • A passion for wind resource, and for the role renewable energy can play in mitigating climate change

  • Around 3-5 years of experience in the field and in a similar role. Also capable of independent work and taking initiative in self-directing work projects.
  • Experience in the wind industry would be ideal, but not a requirement.
  • Proficiency with Git and Git Flow will be useful, though not mandatory.
  • Basic proficiency with software development and knowledge of Python will be an added advantage.
  • Fluent English including high-quality written English
  • International experience preferable
  • Independent worker and natural initiative-taker
