We're pioneers at the forefront of the global energy transition - pushing boundaries, turning bold ideas into reality, and solving the problems that matter most.\nThe INtelligent GRID of tomorrow needs to absorb and release more power. We develop, build and operate high-performance batteries - the lungs of modern energy infrastructure - enabling a more flexible and resilient energy supply across Europe. With 500 MW already deployed across the Nordics and rapid expansion into continental Europe, we manage, optimise and trade both our own assets and those of third parties through our sophisticated tech platform, making every battery - and the entire grid - stronger.\nWatch our film\nAbout the role\nAs Quantitative Power Trader, you’ll own the intraday trading strategies at the heart of Ingrid’s BESS and renewable portfolio - building the arbitrage and proprietary strategies that turn market volatility into revenue. You’ll design, build, and refine the models and algorithms behind them, working hand-in-hand with our engineering team to get them into production, and staying close to the market through day-time trading shifts that keep you grounded in how your strategies actually perform.\nIntraday is the focus, but never in isolation: you’ll bring a broader view of how we optimize BESS revenue across ancillary, day-ahead, and intraday markets, so your strategies are tuned to the portfolio’s full revenue stack - not just one piece of it.\nWhat you'll do\nDesign, backtest, and continuously improve intraday trading algorithms - arbitrage and proprietary strategies - applying revenue-optimization thinking across ancillary, day-ahead, and intraday markets so strategies fit the portfolio’s full revenue stack.\n\nExecute trades with discipline and strong market feel while adhering to risk limits and governance frameworks.\n\nBuild and maintain quantitative models for price forecasting, degradation-adjusted cycling economics, and cross-market arbitrage (ancillary vs. wholesale vs. tolling).\n\nMonitor the performance of Ingrid’s automated trading platform, pinpointing where live results deviate from the theoretical optimum and diagnosing why.\n\nCollaborate closely with the engineering team to translate strategy logic into production code - this is not a hand-off-and-wait role.\n\nConduct scenario and stress-testing ahead of new market entries (new geographies or products).\n\nReport on trading performance and risk exposure to leadership, including drawdown explanations and capacity utilisation metrics.\n\nTake part in day-time trading shifts, with occasional weekend coverage to monitor live strategy performance.\n\nYour work experience:\n2-5 years of experience in a Data Scientist, Quantitative, or similar role within the energy sector, with direct exposure to European intraday power markets, either through trading or strategy development, is required; BESS experience is highly preferred.\n\nStrong grasp of forecasting, optimization, and pricing across ancillary, day-ahead, and intraday markets, with the intraday market as your core focus.\n\nFamiliarity with market design and regulatory frameworks, plus a sharp feel for power fundamentals, volatility, and market dynamics.\n\nStrong programming capability (Python required; SQL and experience with data pipelines or model deployment a plus).\n\nComfortable working with large, complex datasets, with the analytical rigor to match.\n\nAdvanced degree (MSc or PhD) in a quantitative field such as Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Physics, or similar.\n\nYour personal skills\nBeyond technical experience, we’re looking for someone with the right mindset and a genuine passion for renewable energy, including:\nOwnership and self-leadership - taking initiative and full responsibility to drive and own your domain, and to bring concepts through to commercial execution.\n\nDiligence and expertise - working persistently and thoroughly to become the subject matter expert.\n\nBusiness acumen and commercial drive - understanding the commercial perspective behind every strategy.\n\nAnalytical and strategic thinking - precision in forecasting paired with big-picture judgment.\n\nCommunication and collaboration - clear with stakeholders, generous with knowledge across teams and disciplines.\n\nAdaptability and agility - thriving in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.\n\nWhy join us?\nAt Ingrid, we're pioneers at the forefront of the global energy transition - pushing boundaries, turning bold ideas into reality, and solving what matters most. Our culture is built on Bold Impact · Curious Grit · Inspiring Collaboration. We believe a thriving organisation runs on trust, growth, and learning from mistakes - and that wellbeing matters as much as work. From lunch & learns to social activities, we make space to connect, recharge, and thrive together.\nNext step\nWe’ll make selections on an ongoing basis and finalise the recruitment as soon as we’ve found the perfect match.\nWe look forward to hearing from you!\n/Team Ingrid","description_format":"text","description_chars":5078,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":2,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"phd","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Energy Storage","Energy Management"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-13T18:11:55Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":4,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.16,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":126,"expected_fill_days":26,"reasons":["conf:2","win:tail","crowd:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-11-13T20:17:27Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/ingrid-capacity-quantitative-power-trader","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/ingrid-capacity-quantitative-power-trader.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-13T20:17:27Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":40470,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-14T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":679076},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=679076"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fingrid-capacity-quantitative-power-trader"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"free","price":{"credits":0,"usd":0},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fingrid-capacity-quantitative-power-trader"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fingrid-capacity-quantitative-power-trader"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/ingrid-capacity-quantitative-power-trader\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fingrid-capacity-quantitative-power-trader"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":4272219}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"ingridcapacity.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":4272219},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
