Kaluza wants to power a world where net-zero is within everyone's reach, by building the platform that will accelerate a sustainable, affordable and resilient energy transition. It's a huge challenge, but often the toughest problems are the most rewarding to solve.
Since launching in 2019, Kaluza's technology has been empowering some of the biggest energy suppliers to better serve millions of customers.
From revolutionising billing to smart electric vehicle charging, our real-time cloud platforms transform supplier operations, reducing cost to serve and boosting engagement. And most importantly, they enable suppliers' customers to drive decarbonisation with smart, low carbon technologies.
Where in the world of Kaluza will I be working?
The business analyst (BA) is in a client-facing role; they are the translator of our clients' business needs to the teams building our amazing platform. They can straddle the operational, product and data domains, seamlessly transitioning between these or working across them as required to understand the full picture.
We want our platform to solve our clients problems, to provide them with amazing success stories, and to help them evolve their businesses. To do that, we need to understand what matters to them and how our platform can play a major part in this ambition.

This platform has been built with scale and technical quality in mind and is the foundation for decarbonisation efforts by Kaluza's customers.
What will I be doing?
- Eliciting and documenting client requirements and bringing these together into coherent artifacts that can be disseminated and worked on with our engineering teams
- Process mapping and engineering, with particular focus on elements of processes and journeys that are specific to the client
- Being the authoritative source of information within Kaluza for how the clients' business processes operate.
- Documenting industry processes and mapping interaction points with the Kaluza platform.
- Facilitating requirements gathering workshops; bringing together Kaluza's product and engineering people with the client
- Working in partnership with the programme manager and account manager to ensure that platform requirements are delivered to the right quality and solve our clients' problems.
