• We have lots of difficult design challenges to solve. The UK utilities market is complicated, outdated and process-heavy - there's an awful lot of domain modelling that we need to get right. Strong attention to detail is essential.

We need the right technology in place to handle this smoothly as well as feeding data into a machine learning pipeline that models and predicts consumption.
