Position Overview

cQuant is seeking an Energy Analyst II to assist with software implementations, ongoing customer support, and defining scope and requirements for new features related to the analytical models within its web-based energy analytics platform.

The Energy Analyst II will interface directly with cQuant’s users, helping to instill best practices in quantitative modeling for portfolios amid the energy transition and enabling these users to realize maximum value from the cQuant solution. The Energy Analyst II will also work closely with various other departments within cQuant, including sales and marketing, product, and customer success to assist in scoping, validation, quality assurance, and documentation of new energy-focused analytical products and features. The direct client‑facing nature of the role will require the successful candidate to demonstrate both strong technical and problem solving abilities as well as excellent written and verbal communication skills. The Energy Analyst II role best suits early career quantitative thinkers who enjoy problem solving, building analytical solutions, communicating complex topics to customers.

If you are passionate about the energy industry and want to be at the forefront of the quantitative analytics enabling the energy transition, we want to hear from you!

What You’ll Be Doing

• Guiding customers through complex technical engagements, determining the best analytical approach rather than following a prescribed solution.
• Configuring, calibrating, and validating cQuant’s analytical models within implementation projects and/or ad hoc engagements.
• Communicating modeling results and recommendations to both technical and non‑technical audiences
• Providing direct analytical support to existing and/or prospective clients.
• Writing documentation for existing analytical functionality.
• Training cQuant users on existing functionality and best practices.
• Performing testing and QA of cQuant’s models and analytical feature enhancements.
• Generating client‑facing reports.
• “Wrangling” energy and financial data.
• Troubleshooting/debugging software failures.

What You’ll Bring

The successful candidate will be highly self‑motivated and work well within a close‑knit and dynamic team of bright and driven analytical software professionals. Work is fast‑paced and results oriented, with little room for error or re‑work, and the ideal candidate will excel in this environment.

• Master’s degree in a quantitative discipline (Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, Statistics, Physics, Economics/Quantitative Economics or other) or a Bachelor’s degree along with 2+ years of relevant wholesale electric power industry experience in a quantitative role.
• 0 - 3 years of relevant work experience (entry‑level role).
• Strong problem‑solving skills, attention to detail, and proactive mindset.
• Think critically and enjoy solving analytical problems with vague definitions.
• Strong grasp of statistics and time series analysis (probability distributions, regression models, stochastic processes).
• Python/R proficiency for data analysis and visualization.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; ability to explain complex technical concepts to clients.
• Hands‑on experience in building, configuring, calibrating, challenging and/or validating analytical models through professional, academic, or project experience.
• Experience handling large datasets and reporting to enable business decisions.
• Self‑motivated, highly organized, and able to work in a fast‑paced, results‑oriented environment.
• Familiarity with wholesale energy industry concepts (renewable and thermal generation, battery storage, deal structuring).
• Basic understanding of financial derivatives (swaps, forwards, European options).
• Experience in QA/testing for analytical software or model feature enhancements.
• Teaching, tutoring, or training experience.
• Prior experience in energy finance, risk management, or portfolio analysis.
• Strong documentation skills and user‑focused mindset.

What makes you a great fit:

• You have a strong foundation in mathematics, physics, engineering, or quantitative finance, you think in models, not dashboards.
• You’re comfortable applying quantitative methods like stochastic modelling, Monte Carlo simulation, or optimization to real‑world energy problems.
• You can code in Python or R, but your strength lies in how you use those tools to explore logic, probability, and data relationships, not just build visuals or pipelines.
• You’re curious about energy markets and enjoy solving complex, abstract problems that don’t have a single “right” answer.
• You can communicate complex concepts clearly, translating technical insights into business impact for stakeholders.

Not the right fit:

candidates whose experience is limited to data cleaning, SQL, Power BI, or dashboarding, this isn’t a data visualization role.

Why Join us?

• Global Impact. Shape the future of energy, commodities, and financial markets through innovative technology.
• Innovation at Scale. Work with cutting‑edge software, advanced analytics, and complex data that solve real‑world challenges.
• Career Growth. Join a fast‑growing global organization where your ideas, development, and career progression are valued.
• Exceptional People. Collaborate with talented colleagues and industry experts across North America, Europe, and Asia.
• Meaningful Ownership. Take ownership of your work, influence strategic initiatives, and make a measurable impact on our customers and business.
