Ideal Company Type

I will like to work in a multi-cultural environment with focus on solar and biogas energy, software development and/ or data engineering and management. My latest goal is owning a successful renewable energy business, which I’m eagerly waiting to start. I believe a solar power company will be a good fit for me and my professional goal as it will afford me the wonderful opportunity to learn, network and develop skills from a solar power provider in the U.S. I would like to explore business partnership opportunities with different solar companies as a representative in Nigeria.
Another goal is to successfully establish a profitable online store and I believe I can learn/develop skills and grow networks needed to achieve this goal from working with a cloud-based e-commerce platform that offers online store management features (online payment methods, analytics, order fulfillment, etc.) as well as content management features, and hosting and security services for online store. One of my business goal as an entrepreneur is to drive growth with customers experience, automation and to gain software and mobile app development skills alongside hands-on experience in data analytics. I would love to be at a company that can help me to actualize these goals.

Additional Technical Skills

Python, R, SQL, BigQuery, R, Python, and Tableau. Solar panel installation.
