Job description

The quality of every P&L and risk number starts with the curves behind it.

This is an opportunity to join the Pricing & Risk Technology team of a global commodities trading business, helping build the platforms that transform market data into forward curves, valuations, P&L and risk across oil, power and gas.

Working alongside traders, middle office, quants and engineers, you'll own the methodology behind curve construction and P&L attribution, translating business requirements into production-ready solutions. The role covers everything from forward curves and valuation logic to intraday pricing and risk capabilities.

You'll work with Python, AWS, distributed computing and AI-assisted development tooling, contributing to the design and delivery of reliable production systems while challenging requirements and improving how the platform evolves.

Ideally, you'll bring experience building production software together with a strong understanding of commodities pricing, forward curves and the valuation lifecycle. Exposure to P&L, pricing or risk platforms within oil, power or gas markets would be particularly valuable, along with the ability to work confidently across both technical and business teams.
