On a day to day, report to the Fleet Asset Manager and collaborate closely on all data-related priorities for the solar fleet portfolio
Support project management for data integrity from asset sellers, including detailed review, validation, and reconciliation of handover data packages (e.g., as-built drawings, equipment specs, solar project design configurations, meter calibrations, performance test results, and contractual guarantees)
Drive clean onboarding of solar projects into the fleet/asset management platform by identifying, documenting, and resolving discrepancies between seller-provided data and actual installed/operational conditions
Manage production validation testing and post-commissioning data checks to confirm accurate energy output, availability, performance ratios, and other key metrics align with expectations and seller representations
Investigate and resolve operational asset data issues arising in the fleet, including inconsistencies in product data, O&M records, monitoring feeds, irradiance corrections, and other datasets impacting fleet performance and reporting
Partner with O&M teams and internal fleet stakeholders to enforce data standards, resolve upstream issues, and prevent recurrence
Develop and implement robust data quality controls, validation rules, reconciliation workflows, and audit processes to ensure ongoing integrity of fleet-wide solar asset data
Perform in-depth root-cause analysis on data anomalies (getting "into the weeds" with raw logs, configuration files, and time-series data) and drive corrective actions with sellers or internal teams as needed
Prepare status reports, dashboards, issue trackers, and executive summaries on data integrity progress, onboarding status, and fleet data health for the Fleet Asset Manager and senior leadership
Contribute to continuous improvement of data handover processes from sellers to enhance future fleet onboarding efficiency and reduce risk
