VISUALIZATION ENGINEER- REMOTE
The Select Group is seeking a Visualization Engineer who can design and build the operational dashboards and alerting systems that give the client facility and energy teams real-time visibility into the Virtual Building Automation System (VBAS) platform. Dashboards are built in Amazon Managed Grafana and inherit the clients existing vCMTS Grafana design system so operators see facility dashboards in the visual language they already use. The role spans the energy storage and microgrid layer, the HVAC automation visibility layer, and the fleet-level operational view across approximately 1,700 critical sites.
The ideal candidate: combines strong Grafana expertise with an understanding of operational data, they know how to surface the right signal in a noisy facility dataset.
What You'll Bring:
- 3+ years building production Grafana dashboards: not just basic panels
- Strong understanding of time-series data and PromQL, InfluxQL, or equivalent query languages
- Experience configuring Grafana alerting: rules, notification channels, escalation policies
- Ability to connect Grafana to multiple data sources: Amazon Timestream, Athena, SiteWise, Prometheus, PostgreSQL, or Elasticsearch
- Experience designing dashboards for operational (not analytics) use cases: on-call and NOC-style visibility
- Strong visual design sense: can produce clean, readable dashboards without training
- Familiarity with Amazon Managed Grafana or willingness to adopt
- Experience with Grafana in a vCMTS or cable/telco infrastructure environment
- Familiarity with facility management, HVAC status, or energy metrics
- Amazon QuickSight or Tableau experience for executive views
- Prometheus or Victoria Metrics operational monitoring experience
- Knowledge of dashboard-as-code (Grafonnet, Grafana Terraform provider)
- Basic Python or JavaScript for custom Grafana plugins or data transformations
Day to Day Responsibilities:
- Design and build Amazon Managed Grafana dashboards displaying energy storage metrics, microgrid simulation outputs, HVAC operating state, automation events, and fleet-level KPIs
- Inherit and extend the vCMTS Grafana design system: visual style, color palette, panel layouts, alert formatting
- Implement alerting rules for curtailment thresholds, state-of-charge anomalies, HVAC automation safeguard events, and override events; route notifications via SNS or AWS Chatbot to operations channels
- Integrate Managed Grafana with the shared data lake: Timestream for hot time-series, Athena for warm/cold data, SiteWise for asset measurements
- Validate dashboard data against source systems; ensure no manual data refresh is required
- Build Amazon QuickSight executive and sustainability narrative views for stakeholder reporting
- Manage fleet-wide dashboard templates and onboard new site dashboards using dashboard-as-code patterns
- Collaborate with Data Engineers on query optimization and data model design for dashboard performance
- Maintain a unified design system across all VBAS dashboards for consistent visual language
- Produce user guides and documentation for the operations team
