We optimise and market a growing portfolio of flexible assets on European power markets - battery storage, aggregated EV fleets and renewable generation. Our multi-market optimisation and execution is purely algorithm-driven and fully automated. What decides whether we make money is the quality of the inputs our algorithms run on: forecasts of prices, market fundamentals and renewable generation - from long-term views down to intraday and real time.

• You own the complete forecasting stack our short-term algorithmic trading desk relies on: prices (day-ahead, intraday, imbalance and ancillary services such as FCR and aFRR), fundamentals (load, residual load, cross-border flows, outages, fuel and CO₂) and renewable generation (wind and PV) and you keep short-term and long-term views consistent
• You deliver these forecasts as production-grade, probabilistic inputs (point forecasts, quantiles and scenarios) directly into our optimisation and bidding algorithms, and own their accuracy, timeliness and availability
• You develop and implement analytical, statistical and fundamental models to assess European power and renewable markets and deliver data-driven insights and signals for our trading decisions
• You assess market trends and new markets quantitatively, providing the basis for country and product decisions
• You lead a team of 5-7 analysts & data scientist, develop them technically and coach them in their personal growth
• You work closely with Trading Desk, Portfolio Management & Pricing, Sales and Product, building the bridge to develop cutting edge products and services
• You create reports, monitorings and benchmarks to derive actionable insights for trading, senior management and other stakeholders
• Your models feed into bids and prices largely automatically, and into the decisions of the management board

• Several years of experience in quantitative analysis on European power markets — price, fundamental and renewable generation forecasting as well as fundamental modelling.
• A solid understanding of day-ahead, intraday and ancillary services, capacity and local flexibility markets, and of how prices form in them
• Experience in technical leadership — or a clearly visible step towards it — with the ability to motivate and develop a team
• The ability to translate quantitative findings so that the management board and stakeholders can make decisions based on them
• business-fluent English and German is a plus
