Job Description
Energy Modeling & Automation Associate
Hybrid | Atlanta, GA
About Us
At Horizon Energy South, our mission is simple: helping people and the planet through residential sustainable energy solutions.
We combine deep building science expertise with a practical understanding of Georgia's energy programs to deliver real results. Our work focuses on the science of making homes more comfortable, efficient, and cost-effective, not just theoretical improvements.
With 1,000+ completed projects across Metro Atlanta, we've helped homeowners unlock thousands of dollars in upgrades through programs like HER, HEAR, GA Power EASE, and Weatherize ATL.
The Role
The Energy Modeling & Automation Associate is a high-impact position designed for a professional who thrives with computer systems, enjoys modeling, and likes to solve complex problems. Working directly with the leadership team, you will be responsible for building the systems that power our next phase of growth.
This role requires a blend of quantitative analysis, technical aptitude, and project management. You will not only refine our core energy modeling processes but also lead the integration of advanced AI tools (including Claude-based agents) to institutionalize efficiency across the organization.
What You'll Do
1. Energy Modeling & Technical Analysis
• Perform and refine building energy models
• Translate modeling outputs into actionable insights for clients
• Continuously improve modeling accuracy, speed, and usability
2 . Develop Al-Driven Internal Tools
• Lead development of a Claude-based internal agent to:
• Automate workflows
• Streamline modeling processes
• Improve data handling and reporting
• Identify high-leverage opportunities to integrate Al across the business
• Prototype and deploy lightweight internal tools
3. Work Cross-Functionally
• Collaborate with engineering, operations, and leadership
• Communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Take ownership of ambiguous, high-impact problems
Who You Are
• A problem solver - you break down complex challenges and figure things out quickly
• Technically strong - comfortable with modeling, data, or programming
• Hard-working & high ownership - you take initiative and follow through
• Clear communicator - you can explain complex ideas simply
• Curious & fast learner - you pick up new tools, systems, and domains quickly
Preferred Qualifications
• Experience with computer science, engineering, data science, or similar fields
• Familiarity with energy modeling tools (or ability to learn quickly)
• Experience with:
• CLI experience, experience working with agents, Claude code experience
• APIs, automation tools, or AI workflows
• Data analysis and modeling
• Interest in Al agents / LLMs (e.g., Claude, GPT, etc.)
• Interest in climate tech and a passion for sustainability and helping your community
Why This Role is Unique
• Build AI systems from scratch that directly impact a growing business
• Work directly with leadership on strategy and execution
• Own meaningful projects early
• Operate at the intersection of energy and communities
• Be part of a fast-growing, mission-driven company
• Competitive salary + performance-based upside
