We are seeking a skilled data engineering team to develop a robust real-time data infrastructure for forecasting energy demand in the energy storage sector. This project aims to leverage cutting-edge technologies to enable more efficient energy distribution and storage management, ensuring reliability and sustainability.

📋Project Details

Our SME in the energy storage industry requires a comprehensive data engineering solution to enhance our energy demand forecasting capabilities. As we scale, the need for real-time data processing and analytics has become critical. We aim to build a modern data infrastructure that supports real-time analytics, enabling us to better anticipate energy demand fluctuations and optimize storage deployment. The project involves implementing a data mesh architecture using Apache Kafka for event streaming, Apache Spark for real-time data processing, and Airflow for orchestrating data workflows. We'll also utilize dbt for data transformation and Snowflake or BigQuery for scalable data warehousing solutions. The successful completion of this project will help us improve operational efficiency, reduce costs, and ensure we remain competitive in a rapidly evolving market. We anticipate the project to take approximately 8-12 weeks, with a budget of $25,000 to $75,000.
