- Further ensure the readiness of our portfolio with a tracking system for communications sent to customers that relay critical grid operations alerts

- Create and deliver seasonal communications and readiness alerts to customers in partnership with Voltus's Customer Success team
- Take ownership of reporting tools and ad hoc analysis projects, supported by a fluency in at least one of Google Sheets, Python, and/or SQL
