Our Energy Products practice are looking for an experienced Senior Quantitative Modeller/Developerto join the team  - Stochastic Simulations in Power Markets. 

The CORAL team within our Energy Products practice develops the modelling platform that underpins Baringa's market analysis, valuation, and optimisation capabilities across European energy markets. We build production-grade software used by our consultants, analysts, SaaS developers, and clients to model power markets, simulate market prices, optimise assets, and deliver long-term market insights.

Our work spans statistical and stochastic models, optimisation, internal/external data, and AI-enabled tooling. We combine software engineering, quantitative methods, and energy market expertise to create scalable solutions that support both advisory engagements and productised offerings across Baringa globally.

As our modelling capabilities continue to expand, we are looking for an experienced quantitative modeller to lead the development and evolution of our stochastic simulation framework and associated market modelling methodologies.

What you will be doing

• Lead the design, development, calibration, and validation of Baringa's stochastic simulation models across power, gas, LNG, and other commodity markets.
• Develop advanced modelling methodologies including mean-reverting jump diffusion (MRJD), two-factor, and multi-factor stochastic models.
• Improve the representation of commodity price behaviour, volatility, market regimes, and structural market change within our modelling framework.
• Combine liquid horizon market data with Baringa's long-term fundamental market outlooks to create stochastic simulations that are consistent with our scenario-based simulations.
• Research and implement new quantitative approaches for modelling uncertainty, asset valuation, risk assessment, and market behaviour.
• Work closely with market modelling specialists, advisory teams, and clients to ensure models remain relevant, credible, and aligned with commercial decision-making.
• Partner with software engineers to ensure modelling methodologies are implemented as robust, maintainable, and scalable production software.
• Drive model calibration, validation, benchmarking, and ongoing performance monitoring.
