Who are we?
Arenko was founded in 2014 and we are growing rapidly in an emerging sector. We’d describe ourselves as fast-paced and inclusive. Our team are self-motivated problem solvers who take a collaborative approach to help the business develop and grow.
So what do we do?
As we move to the high-renewables and low carbon era, electricity storage is transforming the way the energy industry operates. The energy industry is fast becoming a digital and multidisciplinary sector that provides a fundamental service for modern society, but these needs must be delivered in a socially responsible way. Arenko is using new technology to add flexibility to the grid and secure supply in this fast-changing industry, offering a huge variety of opportunities for the future. At Arenko we are strongly committed to our mission of building a sustainable future by enabling a zero-carbon grid worldwide. Energy storage has a crucial role to play in the energy transition, and our technology enables the transformation of energy systems. We have committed a Sustainability Strategy more details of which can be found on our website at https://arenko.group/sustainability/

What’s the role?
As a Data Scientist at Arenko, you will be part of a small, highly skilled team, focussed on delivering genuine change within the UK’s energy system and beyond. At Arenko we believe that modernisation of the world’s energy systems, the achievement of net zero and the future which lies beyond are contingent on our ability to effectively use data. As part of our data team, you will play a key role in delivering that vision. Influencing within the team, the company and the industry at large you will have a genuine opportunity to deliver tangible positive change in a critical industry through the products you design, build and operate.
Batteries and the flexibility they deliver are fundamental to efficiently and reliably operating electricity grids with high levels of intermittent renewable generation. As part of Arenko’s Data Science team, you will deliver the intelligence that batteries need to be effective. By exploring the large amounts of data produced by the energy industry, you will be responsible for identifying new opportunities for batteries in a rapidly changing energy landscape. You will develop machine learning models for a variety of purposes including prediction of battery parameters and constraints, electricity grid and energy market behaviours. You will help create the processes to manage these models, retrain them, validate them, and ensure model design processes scale to multiple markets. You will also collaborate with the rest of the Data Science team to improve Arenko’s autonomous trading decision-making engine.
