Remote Energy Data Analyst Jobs in Chicago

🌟 Welcome to the Future of Clean Intelligence

Once upon a time (okay, not that long ago), a tight-knit team of number whisperers, energy strategists, and forward-thinking techies set out to change the world—one data point at a time. Armed with passion, caffeine, and cloud-powered analytics, they decided to tackle one of the 21st century's most urgent challenges: making energy brighter, cleaner, and brilliantly efficient.

Now, their mission needs YOU. Yes, you—the pattern seeker, the energy sleuth, the spreadsheet Jedi. If interpreting metrics feels like decoding ancient treasure maps and you love the thrill of remote collaboration, you might be the unicorn we're after. 🌈

💼 What You’ll Be Powering (Key Responsibilities)

• Dive deep into energy consumption data to unlock trends, inefficiencies, and cost-saving strategies that make CFOs weep joyfully.
• Develop and maintain interactive dashboards and reporting systems that turn messy numbers into crisp, actionable insights.
• Collaborate remotely with energy managers, sustainability teams, and fellow analysts to create custom energy optimization solutions.
• Apply statistical methods to assess real-time energy usage and make predictive forecasts with flair.
• Communicate complex findings in a way that makes sense to data geeks and the "I-don’t-do-math" crowd.
• Keep an eye on market changes and evolving energy regulations to help us stay ten steps ahead.

🧠 Work Environment: Remote, but Never Removed

Imagine your favorite workspace—maybe your zen-ed-out home office, neighborhood cafe, or even a sunny corner of your kitchen. Imagine being fully supported by a vibrant team that thrives in a fully distributed setup.

We celebrate flexibility, curiosity, and coffee breaks ending with "Wait, that's a brilliant idea."

🛠️ Tools and Tech You’ll Tame

You don’t need to duel with a dragon, but your weapons of choice will include:

• Advanced Excel, pivot tables, and formulas that sing
• SQL for crafting beautiful queries (and unearthing profound truths)
• Power BI or Tableau for dazzling visualizations
• Python or R for building data models that breathe insight
• Cloud-based platforms (hello, AWS and Azure!) for scalable analysis
• Project management tools like Asana, Slack, and Notion for seamless collaboration

📚 Qualifications: The Spark We’re Looking For

• A degree in Data Analytics, Energy Management, Environmental Science, or a related field that makes you go, “Ah yes, my element.”
• 2+ years of hands-on experience working as a remote analytics professional or energy data analyst.
• A portfolio (or stories!) that shows off how you’ve used business intelligence to drive change.
• A love for numbers, but an even more profound love for what they mean.
• Excellent communication skills—you translate charts into conversations.
• A creative brain that doesn’t just ask "Why?" but also "What if?"

🚀 Our Vision and Your Impact

Data can do more than fill spreadsheets—it can shape a greener planet. As we set our sights on reducing global energy waste and leading the charge in sustainable technology, we need minds like yours: analytical, inspired, and unafraid to ask unconventional questions.

This isn’t a "crunch-the-numbers-and-go-home" kind of gig. This is a "reinvent-how-we-understand-energy" adventure.

🎉 Culture Perks (Because Work Shouldn’t Be Boring)

• Fully remote team with quarterly virtual retreats (costumes optional, creativity required)
• Wellness stipends because your mind and body are part of the equation
• Continuous learning culture, with sponsored courses and certifications
• Slack channels for everything from "Data Humor" to "Sourdough Tips"

💸 Compensation

This role offers a competitive annual salary of $85,000, with growth opportunities, bonuses, and the priceless reward of knowing your work matters.

🧲 Who You’ll Be Working With

You’ll join a dream team of researchers, sustainability experts, and quirky analysts who care deeply about their craft and the planet. You’ll never be the most intelligent person in the (virtual) room—and that’s exactly how we like it.
