Your role in the team
- As part of our Asset Optimization Community within Trading Technology, you will design, build, and improve automated trading algorithms that optimize customers’ grid-scale batteries and other flexible renewable energy assets.
- You will turn complex quantitative, market and operational challenges into reliable, production-grade optimization solutions that create measurable value in live trading.
- In this hands-on senior specialist role, you will take technical ownership of substantial algorithmic work, ensuring the quality and reliable operation of your algorithms through rigorous analysis, reproducible evaluations and well-tested production software.
- You will investigate unexpected behaviour, turn operational learnings into lasting improvements, and help make our solutions more reusable across assets and markets.
- Working closely with the wider team, you will contribute to sound technical decisions, share your expertise and help other engineers grow, without taking on line-management responsibilities.
- Design, implement and improve asset-backed optimization and trading algorithms, accounting for market rules, physical asset constraints and agreed trading risk controls.
- Translate complex optimization problems into clear design choices and maintainable production code, challenging assumptions and proposing practical enhancements to existing strategies.
- Work closely with the Optimization Product Owner and Team Lead to clarify requirements, define expected outcomes and acceptance criteria, and evaluate technical options, estimates, and trade-offs.
- Develop rigorous backtests, simulations, and controlled experiments to evaluate algorithm performance across realistic scenarios, data limitations, and edge cases.
- Analyse live trading behaviour, data quality and performance drivers to identify weaknesses and deliver evidence-based algorithm improvements.
- Build diagnostics, observability, and safe operating practices into algorithms, collaborating with Trading Operations to investigate production issues and implement lasting solutions.
- Take ownership of technical quality through code reviews, automated testing, safe releases, and maintainable, reusable designs across assets and markets.
- Use AI-assisted and agentic development tools to accelerate prototyping, coding, testing, and analysis, applying sound technical judgment and appropriate engineering safeguards.
- Share knowledge and support colleagues through technical reviews, pairing, and collaborative problem-solving, ensuring that important design decisions and specialist expertise are documented.
- Contribute to prioritised discovery, pilots, backtesting and new-market enablement, working with Platform/Integration Engineering and other teams.
Our expectations of you
Qualifications
- Have strong quantitative problem-solving and numerical reasoning skills, supported by a background in computer science, mathematics, physics, engineering, or a related field.
- Know how to write clear, maintainable, and well-tested code and collaborate with other engineers to deliver reliable production software.
- Can reason about operational constraints, work effectively across disciplines, and communicate complex technical decisions clearly in English.
- Balance algorithmic sophistication with reliability, maintainability and practical delivery value.
- Take ownership of complex technical problems, communicate risks and uncertainty openly, and share your knowledge generously.
Experience
- You want to actively contribute to the transition to clean energy and have experience developing algorithms in a compiled programming language such as Go, Rust, C++, Java, C#, or a similar language.
- Bring substantial hands-on experience in designing, building, and maintaining production algorithms, optimization software, or comparable quantitative decision systems.
- Have practical data analysis skills and experience using historical and production data to develop, validate, and improve algorithms, with an understanding of data quality and model limitations.
- Are experienced with, or eager to adopt, agentic AI approaches that enhance software development while maintaining high engineering standards.
