Position Summary & Responsibilities

The Role
This is a quantitative capital markets role. You will develop and own Gridmatic's corporate model, the analysis behind how we deploy capital, and the collateral and credit requirements that support our trading operations. 
Power markets are volatile, our capital is committed against live positions, and margin and liquidity constraints are binding. Understanding how those pieces interact quantitatively is the core of this job.
Scope grows with the company. As we raise debt and equity, you will take a more central role in those processes, from building the transaction model to running diligence and helping structure the facilities.
We are hiring at either the Associate or Senior Associate level. Scope, title, and compensation are calibrated to experience. 
 
What You'll Do
Corporate Model & Quantitative Analysis
● Develop and own the integrated corporate model across P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow, built from first principles, with assumptions you can defend line by line.
● Translate trading performance, asset economics, and market data into forward financial projections that leadership and the board rely on.
● Build the scenario and sensitivity analysis that stress-tests the business against power price volatility, asset performance, and changes in market structure.
● Present analysis and recommendations to management in memos and decks that support decisions.

Collateral, Credit & Liquidity
● Own the company's collateral posting requirements across market operators and counterparties, including ISOs, utilities, and banks.
● Quantify and monitor credit exposure and margin requirements, and ensure liquidity is sufficient for our positions and efficiently deployed.
● Model collateral needs forward under stressed market conditions so that a volatile week does not become a liquidity surprise.

Capital Allocation & Return Analysis
● Analyze how we deploy capital across trading strategies, energy assets, market expansion, and technology investment.
● Evaluate risk-adjusted returns on competing uses of capital and present the tradeoffs clearly.
● Develop the frameworks that govern allocation over time: hurdle rates, concentration limits, and liquidity constraints.
