VEIC is a sustainable energy company on a mission to generate the energy solutions the world needs. For over 30 years VEIC has been working with governments, utilities, foundations, and businesses across North America to develop and deploy clean energy services that provide immediate and lasting change. With expertise in energy efficiency, building decarbonization, transportation electrification, and new approaches for a clean and flexible grid, VEIC brings innovative solutions to the market. VEIC is nationally recognized for developing pilots and programs that optimize energy use, reduce energy burdens for low-income customers, and advance new technologies. In addition to our full-service consulting business (Energy Services), VEIC administers three large-scale sustainable energy programs: Efficiency Vermont, Efficiency Smart, and the DC Sustainable Energy Utility (DCSEU). 

VEIC is looking for a technologically curious, organized individual who has an eye for quality assurance to join our mission to generate the energy solutions the world needs. The Technical Energy Analyst manages and develops systems, programs and energy analysis tools as well as technical training and complex analysis support to VEIC staff in support of VEIC performance contracts and initiatives while contributing to a mission-driven, creative, enjoyable and stimulating work environment. This role enjoys engaging work within a non-profit, forward-thinking, energy consulting business and is available to work completely remotely (within certain locations - based on business needs) or hybrid with VEIC having physical offices in Winooski, Vermont, and D.C.

We are committed to building a work community that is inclusive and represents a vibrant diversity of background, experience, perspective, and thought. Climate change impacts all of us; however, we are impacted differently based on our identities and experiences. We all deserve a place at the table to make decisions about our collective future – we hope you’ll consider joining us as we work towards our vision for a healthy planet, thriving people, and energy justice.
