• Quantitative Modeling & Enhancement : Improve and apply quantitative models to assess valuation and risk metrics of structured gas contracts (e.g. Sigmoid, ToP), supporting more accurate risk representation and decision-making.
• Reporting & Automation : Maintain and evolve automated reporting (e.g., in Power BI), ensuring relevance and clarity for stakeholders.

• Technical Skills : Proficiency in Python for modeling and automation.
• Reporting Know-how : Basic experience in reporting tools, ideally Power BI.
• Regulatory Understanding : Solid understanding of risk principles and relevant regulatory frameworks (e.g., MaRisk); ability to apply them pragmatically in a trading context.
• Languages : Basic German (reading and following conversations), fluent in English.
• Personality : Communicative, pragmatic, and cooperative - with a strong sense of team responsibility and professionalism.
• Mobility : Regular on-site presence in Bremen is expected; flexible commuting or partial remote work is possible.
