About the role
Data Engineer, Digital Systems
Calgary, Alberta | Full-Time | Hybrid
Build the data foundation behind Alberta’s evolving energy infrastructure. Enfinite is looking for a hands-on Data Engineer to build and maintain the data platform supporting decisions across our battery energy storage and power-generation portfolio. You will own the Bronze and Silver layers of our Databricks lakehouse, ensuring operational, financial, market, and business data is reliably ingested, cleaned, defined, secured, and ready to use.
What You Will Be Responsible For
Design, build, and maintain ETL and ELT pipelines in Databricks and Delta Lake. Manage batch and near-real-time ingestion from operational and enterprise systems. Build reliable APIs, connectors, and integrations that do not silently fail when source systems change. Clean, standardize, validate, and define data during ingestion. Implement automated data-quality checks, monitoring, and alerts. Diagnose pipeline failures, resolve root causes, and prevent recurring issues. Build and evolve Enfinite’s Bronze and Silver architecture. Design schemas and data models that can scale across additional sites and asset types. Document data lineage, architecture, integrations, and dependencies. Apply data-governance, access-control, security, metadata, and cataloguing standards.
What We Need to See on Your Resume
A bachelor’s degree in computer science, data engineering, electrical engineering, or a related field. At least three years of hands-on data engineering experience. Strong Python skills, including pandas, PySpark, or similar technologies. Hands-on experience with Databricks, Delta Lake, notebooks, and job orchestration. Strong SQL and data-modelling skills. Experience building and supporting production data pipelines. Knowledge of data quality, lineage, access control, metadata, and governance. Understanding of medallion architecture and Bronze, Silver, and Gold data layers. Comfort taking ownership when a pipeline breaks.
Experience in the following areas would be an asset
Power, utilities, renewable energy, or another asset-intensive industry. SCADA, historian, telemetry, or operational technology data. Microsoft Azure, Fabric, or Power BI. Databricks or Azure data-engineering certifications.
What We Will Assess During the Interview
We will explore how you: Build pipelines that remain reliable as source systems change. Detect and resolve data-quality issues before users are affected. Balance speed, reliability, security, cost, and maintainability. Design data models that can scale with the business. Document systems so others can understand and support them. Explain technical issues clearly to non-technical stakeholders. Take ownership, raise concerns early, and follow issues through to resolution.
What Success Looks Like
Data is current, complete, accurate, and measurable. Pipeline issues are caught before downstream users notice. Teams can trust the data available in the Silver layer. Source-system changes do not create silent failures. Documentation is clear enough for another person to understand the platform.

About Enfinite
Founded in 2018, Enfinite is a privately held, technology-focused company engaged in the acquisition, development, and operation of renewable energy storage assets.
To date, we have acquired and constructed generation facilities capable of generating 74 MW of energy primarily through produced gas and waste heat recovery. We are simultaneously developing an exciting network of energy storage facilities intended to complement the increasing development of intermittent renewable resources. When completed, the eReserve program will be capable of instantaneously dispatching 180 MW of energy into the system to be used for greater grid.
Enfinite's operation commenced through the acquisition of all substantial power generating assets from an Alberta based, mid-sized power generation operator. Our team has subsequently acquired additional operating assets in B.C. and Saskatchewan. To date, we have acquired or constructed 74 MW of power generating facilities with an additional 60 MW currently under development.
Enfinite facilities store and generate electricity and our electrical generation assets utilize produced gas, sales gas and waste heat produced by large midstream, exploration and production companies. Our battery energy storage systems facilitate the delivery of sustainable energy, renewable generation smoothing, system voltage and capacity support, as well as grid frequency regulation.
Enfinite mandate is to acquire or construct power generating assets which provide providing stable, long-term cash flows for our investors. We focus on deploying capital that provides innovative and sustainable solutions in the power sector.
Enfinite employs sophisticated, market-leading business Intelligence strategies and analytic technologies to deliver predictive maintenance and automation processes for our assets and environments. Our operations leverage cloud technology to reduce overall operating costs while delivering superior operational uptime on our assets.
