This role combines strong engineering knowledge with data-driven analysis. The Fleet Performance Engineer will work with operational data, alarms, events, configurations, maintenance history, and field information to understand how products behave under real operating conditions and translate those observations into actionable engineering insights. The engineer will work closely with Fleet Reliability & Root Cause Analysis (RCA), Controls Engineering, Data Analytics, AI, Field Service, Product Engineering, Quality, and R&D teams. A key objective of the role is to move the organization from reactive issue investigation toward proactive and predictive fleet management., * Monitor fleet performance, availability, reliability, and energy-production KPIs across solar and energy-storage assets. * Analyze operational data, alarms, events, and maintenance history to identify performance deviations, recurring issues, and emerging risks. * Develop and maintain standardized dashboards, reports, and analytical views that provide clear fleet and asset-level visibility. * Investigate underperformance and quantify its technical, operational, and customer impact. * Benchmark assets, sites, configurations, and operating conditions to identify performance gaps and best practices. * Partner with Reliability and RCA teams to define affected populations, support investigations, and validate corrective-action effectiveness. * Develop early-warning indicators and analytical methods that support condition-based and predictive maintenance. * Translate analytical findings into prioritized recommendations for operations, maintenance, engineering, controls, software, and product teams. * Define data and contextualization requirements with Data Engineering and Analytics/AI teams, including asset hierarchy and phase-module traceability. * Identify data-quality, completeness, and consistency issues and support sustainable corrective actions. * Communicate fleet insights, risks, and recommended actions clearly to technical teams, customers, and business leaders. * Maintain analytical methods, assumptions, and documentation while promoting data-driven decision-making and continuous improvement. ## Related Videos - [Remote Driving on Plant Grounds with State-of-the-Art Cloud Technologies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/251-remote-driving-on-plant-grounds-with-state-of-the-art-cloud-technologies) - [Data Science in Retail](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/586-data-science-in-retail) - [Leveraging Large Language Models for Legacy Code Translation: Challenges and Solutions](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1157-leveraging-large-language-models-for-legacy-code-translation-challenges-and-solutions) - [Beyond Dashboards: Fixing Text-to-SQL with Semantic RAG](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2036-beyond-dashboards-fixing-text-to-sql-with-semantic-rag) - [Building a hypercar from scratch](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/607-building-a-hypercar-from-scratch) - [Software stack under and over the hood of the fastest accelerating car in the world](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/221-software-stack-under-and-over-the-hood-of-the-fastest-accelerating-car-in-the-world) ## Related Articles - [A Guide to Green Tech and Green IT Careers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/374-a-guide-to-green-tech-and-green-it-careers) - [How We Built a Worry-Free System That Runs for 10+ Years – And What We’d Do Again](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/751-how-we-built-a-worry-free-system-that-runs-for-10-years-and-what-we-d-do-again) - [Data Engineer Salary UK](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/253-data-engineer-salary-uk) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Where To Find Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/396-where-to-find-software-engineering-jobs) - [6 Emerging Technologies We’ll Learn About in 2025](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/381-6-emerging-technologies-we-ll-learn-about-in-2025)
