Forecasting Analyst

The Forecasting Team at TESLA, Inc. represents the most fundamental building block of the forecasting solutions that we implement for our clients. Each Analyst on the team is primarily responsible for the forecast accuracy of the models supporting a portfolio of North American clients and jointly responsible with members of the Reliability Team for the overall satisfaction of those clients. They will participate in a broad range of activities, including processing and managing data, building new and maintaining existing models, becoming a subject matter expert on relevant aspects of the energy industry, and developing strong working relationships with clients inside that portfolio. 

The Forecasting Analyst is also expected to maintain a working familiarity with models and clients outside of their portfolio in an effort to provide internal support to Forecasting Team colleagues.
