About the role
Manage an independent proprietary book of financial power positions, taking directional and relative-value trades across power markets and generating risk-adjusted P&L. Develop, monitor, and refine trading strategies using market analysis and quantitative tools while independently managing position sizing and risk within firm limits. Requires at least five years of speculative or proprietary power trading experience and a verifiable P&L track record, with deep knowledge of nodal pricing, LMP dynamics, and basis and congestion risk. Candidates should have experience with financial power instruments, strong analytical and programming skills, disciplined risk management, and the ability to operate autonomously.
