A growing renewable energy firm is hiring a Risk Quant to cover their Power Traders in the USA. The firm generates over 6 GW of wind and solar energy from projects across the country, and the power trading desk is growing as a result.
This hire will work directly with the Head of Energy Trading to optimize trade strategies, enhance risk frameworks, and develop risk and pricing models, tools, and analytics used across the front office. This is a growth opportunity that functions as a power trading desk quant/risk quant.
Beyond renewables trading, this individual will focus on congestion products and nodal markets, so FTR/CRR experience is preferred. The trading team are looking for structuring and/or transmission analytics experience as well, so prior trading or front office responsibility will be a plus for this risk quant hire.
Requirements:
- 5-7 years of experience in NA power markets
- Expertise with CAISO, ERCOT, and PJM market fundamentals
- Previous structuring, transmission analytics, or power trading experience
- Proficient in Python, R, SQL
