About the role

Orenda's business systems are the operational backbone of the company - the platforms and data flows that turn project development, construction, and asset operations into a coordinated, scalable process.
Role Orenda is looking to hire a Business Systems Engineer to serve as the thought leader and technical owner of the business systems that run the company.
This role is for someone who thinks in data models and processes first, writes code when it matters, and treats low-code platforms as serious engineering tools.

Source-of-Truth Database: Design, build, and own Orenda's distributed energy resource (DER) project source-of-truth database from the ground up.
Salesforce & Construction Management: Take ownership of Orenda's existing Salesforce and construction management deployments. Build out new features and continuously improve them as the business evolves.
ERP Implementation: Serve as the internal technical lead for Orenda's ERP implementation, partnering with a third-party firm to scope, oversee, and directly contribute to the buildout. Own the system end-to-end once live.
Integrations: Build and maintain the integrations between our systems, so data stays consistent and error free. Use low code applications or custom scripting.
Process & Data Design: Partner with business stakeholders to map how Orenda actually works and translate it into the data models and processes that run the company - making decisions that hold up as we grow from tens to hundreds of projects.
Documentation & Enablement: Maintain clear documentation of everything you build, so the business can trust the systems and new hires can ramp quickly.
