Power Market Analytics Developer Job at Full Time NEW

Location: London and Edinburgh

Power Market Analytics Developer

LCP Delta is looking for a Power Market Analytics Developer to join our short-term energy markets practice. This is an opportunity to work at the intersection of power market expertise, software development and data analysis, helping shape the evolution of our market-leading trading platform, Enact.

You will play a key role in turning ideas about how power market data should be analysed and visualised into features used daily by traders, analysts and asset owners across the GB power market. Coding is a central part of this role: you will help build both back-end data systems and front-end visualisations, turning market insight into powerful analytical tools.

LCP Delta’s Short-Term Power Markets Team

The power markets practice at LCP Delta spans several teams, including Power Trading, Storage and Power Modelling.

Enact is LCP Delta’s market-leading platform for data visualisation, analytics and forecasting in short-term power markets. The platform is used by the majority of the GB power market to monitor minute-by-minute changes in day-ahead, intraday and balancing markets.

Through the platform and our regular client engagement, we help traders, analysts and asset owners to better understand market behaviour and make more informed decisions.

While you will collaborate with multiple teams across LCP Delta, your day-to-day work will primarily involve developing and enhancing the Enact platform, working closely with developers, analysts and market specialists.

What will you be doing?

Your work will combine software development, market analysis and product thinking.

Developing Enact

You will play an active role in shaping the future direction of Enact, our short-term power markets analytics and visualisation platform. This includes:

• Designing, coding and building data visualisations and analytical tools to help traders and asset owners interpret market behaviour
• Translating ideas for new metrics, datasets and visualisations into production software through code
• Developing across our technology stack, primarily:
• C# back-end services
• Vue.js front-end visualisations
• Working closely with other developers and analysts to design features that are both technically robust and commercially valuable
• Taking ownership of ideas and features from concept through to implementation and release
• Applying power market knowledge when adding new datasets, metrics and analytical tools to ensure they are useful and relevant to market participants
• Contributing ideas that shape the future direction of the platform, with the opportunity to make a real impact early on

Coding is a core part of the role, and you will spend a significant proportion of your time developing new features and analytics for the Enact platform. C# experience is desirable but not essential; we are happy to train candidates who demonstrate strong coding aptitude.

Alongside development work, you will also contribute to data analysis and market insight, including:

• Analysing market data to identify and explain key drivers behind market events and price movements
• Exploring interesting market behaviour and developing new metrics or visualisations to explain it(the rest truncated due to length)
