The Company


Green Cat Renewables (GCR) is a dynamic, innovative company that provides the complete range of technical services required to deliver renewable energy projects. The team of over 90 Engineers and Environmental Consultants deliver projects on behalf of clients from four offices in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Livingston and Biggar. GCR also works closely with its three sister companies Green Cat Contracting and Green Cat Hydrogen based in the UK and Green Cat Renewables Canada based in Calgary and Halifax.

The company has four main departments - Engineering, Environmental & Planning, Geotechnical Services and Technical & Asset Management Services. Underpinning these are the main administrative functions of the business, including a growing Artificial Intelligence (AI) team. Projects are typically based on wind, solar, and hydro power, with an increasing requirement for grid management, battery storage, and alternative technologies.

To enhance its services and bolster technological and data analytic capabilities, GCR is seeking an Artificial Intelligence (AI) Engineer with a strong background in engineering to help deliver improvement projects using state-of-the-art AI techniques. The successful candidate will work closely with the Lead AI Engineer to identify opportunities and implement AI solutions to drive productivity and advance engineering processes.
