What’s the role?
As a Data Scientist in the Nimbus Trade Optimiser team at Arenko, you will play a key role in shaping and evolving our algorithmic physical power trading strategies. Nimbus Trade is an algorithmic trading product used by traders and asset owners to automate the trading of grid-scale batteries and flexible assets. This role focuses on the data, optimisation, and strategy logic embedded in a production trading system, directly influencing how assets are traded in live energy markets. You will work at the intersection of data science, optimisation, and energy markets, helping to design the next generation of our optimiser and discover new trading and operational strategies in a rapidly changing energy landscape.
Batteries and flexibility are fundamental to operating electricity grids with high levels of intermittent renewable generation. In this role, you will focus on understanding how our optimiser behaves in real market conditions, identifying opportunities to improve performance, robustness, and value capture. You will explore large and complex datasets produced by energy markets, trading systems, and simulations, and translate insights into improvements to optimiser logic, strategy design, and decision-making frameworks. You will work closely with engineers and traders to ensure data-driven ideas are implemented, tested, and evaluated in real market conditions. Your work will directly support trading outcomes for a market-leading client base operating battery and flexibility assets.
