About the Opportunity
We’re partnering with a leading clean energy platform at the forefront of solar and energy storage. This is a chance to join a high-impact, mission-driven team working on some of the most commercially sophisticated challenges in renewable energy today.
The business operates across utility-scale and distributed assets, combining strong financial backing with a highly analytical, trading-oriented approach to portfolio management and optimization.
The Role
This is a senior individual contributor position within the Quantitative Analytics team, sitting at the heart of commercial and revenue strategy.
You’ll play a key role in developing and deploying quantitative models that directly influence trading decisions, asset optimization, and commercial structuring. Alongside hands-on technical work, you’ll help mentor junior team members and shape how the team approaches complex analytical problems.
It’s a strong fit for someone who enjoys building models end-to-end but is also ready to step into a more influential, leadership-oriented position.

- Integrate data from across power markets, including weather, generation, and transmission
- Support battery storage optimization, including forecasting and day-ahead dispatch strategies
- Review and structure commercial agreements, identifying risks and opportunities
- Apply machine learning and optimization techniques to improve forecasting and performance
- Mentor junior team members and contribute to a high-performance, collaborative culture
- Partner closely with commercial, development, finance, and asset management teams
What We’re Looking For
- 5–8 years’ experience in power markets, trading, or quantitative analytics within energy
- Strong Python and SQL skills, with experience working in collaborative codebases
- Solid understanding of power market dynamics and pricing
- Experience with structured products, derivatives, or energy contracts
- Exposure to machine learning or optimization in a commercial setting
- Ability to translate complex analysis into clear, actionable insights
- A proactive mindset with the ability to operate independently
- Interest in mentoring and helping develop junior talent
- Background in renewable energy (solar, storage) is a strong plus
Why This Role?
- Direct impact on trading strategy and revenue generation
- Exposure to both renewables and battery storage optimization
- Clear pathway into technical leadership
- Highly collaborative, commercially driven environment
- Opportunity to work on cutting-edge problems in the energy transition
