At Inductive Energy, we welcome applications from experienced Quantitative Traders who want to work at the intersection of market research, strategy development, and live trading. You will collaborate closely with traders and quantitative colleagues to develop, implement, and refine strategies in European intraday power markets, with direct influence on trading performance. We value power trading experience, quantitative ability, commercial judgement, and the drive to take ideas from research into live markets.
Your role
You'll play a hands-on role across strategy development and trading execution, using market data, models, and trading logic to identify opportunities and improve performance.
- Develop, test, and improve quantitative trading strategies.
- Turn market hypotheses into signals, models, and actionable trading decisions.
- Participate in trading decisions and contribute directly to live P&L.
- Monitor and improve live strategy performance, execution, and risk.
- Work with large historical and real-time datasets, including prices, forecasts, flows, weather, and market fundamentals.
- Identify where models break down and improve robustness across market conditions.
- Collaborate with traders to translate quantitative insights into practical decisions.
- Contribute to the development of trading systems and infrastructure.
AI-assisted development is a natural part of our workflow, helping us explore ideas, build tools, and iterate efficiently. We value people who use these tools thoughtfully alongside strong technical skills and market understanding.
