2 U.S. Department of Energy Energy Information Administration The first place to go for the last word in energy information Operations Research Analysts Thirty years ago, Congress decided that high-quality information enhances wise energy decisions, and so created the Energy Information Administration (EIA) within the Department of Energy. EIA has forged a world-class information program that stresses quality, teamwork, and employee growth. In support of our program, we offer a variety of professional positions, including the Operations Research Analyst, whose work is associated with the development and maintenance of energy modeling systems. Responsibilities: Operations Research Analysts perform or participate in one or more of the following important functions: Develop, design, perform, and document a broad range of analyses and studies involving current and projected energy pricing, production, supply, and distribution, and consumption Using computer programming skills and knowledge of energy industries and markets, designs and develops mathematical models (e.g., matrix algebra, LP s, non-linear programs, linear and non-linear set of equations) to represent these industries and markets; and analyzes resulting output data to confirm that the relationships built into the models are accurate Keep up-to-date with changes in energy industries and markets, including the effects of new and emerging technologies, rapidly changing industry practices, mergers and restructurings, new legislation and regulations, and other changes affecting energy production, pricing, supply and distribution patterns Use analytic techniques to analyze data quality and identify options for resolving quality issues Keep up-to-date with advances in quantitative analysis techniques Contribute analyses to EIA publications and special reports Develop presentations and Congressional testimony to be used by senior-level officials Prepare written and oral reports and answer questions from the public Core Qualifications: A Bachelor s degree that demonstrates superior academic achievement and includes 24 semester hours in operations research, mathematics, probability, and/or statistics, of which 3 semester hours must be in calculus. Knowledge of the application of standard quantitative techniques, applied linear algebra, linear and non-linear programming; highly desirable to have evidence of skill in programming in a higher level programming language such as C, C++, FORTRAN.

3 Industry Economists Thirty years ago, Congress decided that high-quality information enhances wise energy decisions, and so created the Energy Information Administration (EIA) within the Department of Energy. EIA has forged a world-class information program that stresses quality, teamwork, and employee growth. In support of our program, we offer a variety of professional positions, including the Industry Economist, whose work is associated with the performance of economic analyses using economic techniques. Responsibilities: Industry Economists perform or participate in one or more of the following important functions: Conduct economic analyses; design worksheets, charts, graphs, and statistical tables to review and evaluate results Develop assumptions, econometric models, and other tools for analyzing and forecasting aspects of energy markets, and prepare short-and mid-term energy forecasts Explore and analyze trends and issues in domestic and international energy economies and markets: the effects of new and emerging technologies, rapidly changing industry practices, mergers and restructurings, new legislation and regulations, and other changes affecting energy production, pricing, supply and distribution patterns; anticipate the impact these changes have on EIA data, forecasts, and other programs and prepares short- and mid-term energy forecasts Contribute written and graphical analysis to EIA publications and special reports Develop presentations and Congressional testimony to be used by senior level officials Compile and publish integrated data from multiple energy sources Develop a working knowledge of the economic relationship between EIA data and related energy markets Keep up-to-date with advances in economic techniques and theory Prepare written and oral reports and answer questions from the public Core Qualifications: A Bachelor s degree that demonstrates superior academic achievement and includes 21 semester hours in economics and an additional 3 semester hours in statistics, accounting, or calculus. Knowledge of standard economic research, economic analysis techniques, and basic energy market conditions. Contact an EIA Recruiter Today!
