Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSam Borgeson is a partner and data-savvy researcher who bridges software engineering, applied energy research, and commercialization of meter-data analytics across utilities, national labs, and academia. With 13+ years blending startups (co-founding Carbon Five) and rigorous PhD work at UC Berkeley, he architected VISDOM—an open-source platform for meter data analytics—and leads productization through Convergence Data Analytics. Sam specializes in load-shape clustering, customer segmentation, and grid planning analytics, helping organizations translate smart meter data into actionable efficiency and decarbonization strategies. He pairs hands-on development and visualization skills with deep domain expertise in building science and climate mitigation modeling, enabling both research-grade analysis and practical deployment. A lesser-known thread of his career is that he began as a software architect in early e-commerce, giving him a rare mix of web-scale engineering and energy systems insight.
