Are you our new Data Engineer?

 

We are a young, growing, international, privately owned company. Since our start in 2008 we have grown into an organization with over 130 colleagues who work across Japan, the Netherlands, Belgium, the UK, Poland and the US.

Our mission is to accelerate the energy transition. We do this by organizing group buying projects for sustainable products such as rooftop solar & storage installations. We are human-centered, meaning that in everything we do, we look at the world through the eyes, hearts and minds of humans. This allows us to create the ideal customer journey for both consumers and our partners on our digital platform.

Since our start, we have helped more than 170.000 people install solar on their roof and generate their own renewable electricity. Last year we realized over 30.000 installations, and this year we expect to increase this number further.

We always organize our group purchasing programs together with local partners which we call community leaders. Community leaders are organizations known and trusted by consumers as standing on their side, like prefectures, cities, wards or coops. The trust of consumers in the community leader is used to give consumers confidence to participate in our group buying programs on a large scale.

We always strive to build trusted long-term relationships with community leaders as we are convinced this is crucial in order to realize long term success. Many community leaders cooperate already for many years with iChoosr, in Europe some already over 10 years.
