London (Hybrid, 2–3 days/week) | £Competitive + Equity
Join one of the UK’s most promising climate tech startups, a team of top-tier engineers and quants building the future of power trading and grid intelligence.
This is a high-impact, production-focused data science role within a newly formed quant trading team. You’ll be working on some of the most complex forecasting problems in energy, turning noisy, fast-moving time-series data into live trading decisions that move the grid toward net zero.

- Solid Python programming skills and experience shipping production code
- Practical understanding of time-series forecasting, statistics, and signal processing
- Experience working with real-world data — ideally in trading, energy, or systems optimisation
- An analytical mindset with a passion for solving applied, algorithmic problems
🛠️ Tools & Stack
Python (core), Streamlit, Docker, GCP (flexible on cloud), Figma for internal tools and UX
