Senior Quantitative Modeller/Developer

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.
• Communicate complex quantitative concepts clearly to technical, commercial, and executive audiences.
• Contribute to Baringa's thought leadership in quantitative energy market modelling and stochastic simulation.

Your skills and experience

Essential

• Significant experience developing and applying stochastic simulation models within power, gas, commodity, or financial markets.
• Strong understanding of one-factor, two-factor, and multi-factor stochastic processes and their practical application.
• Experience designing, calibrating, validating, and maintaining quantitative models used in commercial environments.
• Knowledge of European power markets, trading, and market fundamentals.
• Understanding of spot, futures, OTC, and derivative markets and their application to valuation and risk analysis.
• Experience integrating market data and statistical techniques into practical forecasting, valuation, or simulation frameworks.
• Strong programming skills in Python, including development of maintainable production-quality code.
• Familiarity with software engineering best practices including testing, version control, code review, and collaborative development.
• Ability to explain complex modelling concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Strong stakeholder management skills and experience working across modelling, advisory, engineering, and client-facing teams.
• MSc or PhD in Quantitative Finance, Physics, Mathematics, Statistics, Econometrics, Engineering, Computer Science, or a closely related quantitative discipline.

Desirable

• Experience modelling multiple commodities including power, renewables, gas, LNG or carbon.
• Experience with option pricing, risk analytics, portfolio valuation, or trading analytics.
• Experience developing economic scenario generators, stochastic forecasting frameworks, or Monte Carlo-based simulation platforms. This aligns particularly well with backgrounds such as energy trading analytics and scenario generation.
• Experience applying machine learning or statistical learning techniques alongside traditional stochastic modelling approaches.
• Experience taking quantitative research from prototype through to production implementation.
• Exposure to asset valuation, structured transactions, risk management, or energy trading.
• Experience mentoring or leading other quantitative analysts and modellers.
