About the role
You write software that traders and analysts rely on every single day to make real commercial decisions.
This is a front office development role at an energy trading house covering power, gas, LNG, LPG, oil and environmental products. The business supports market access, asset optimisation, supply and logistics, and risk management. It is a broad and genuinely interesting commercial environment.
You own your work end to end. That means getting involved from the initial analysis and design, through development and release, all the way to post-deployment support. Nothing gets handed off and forgotten.
You see what you build, you see it used, and you see the impact it has.
The team is flat and collaborative. You will work closely with traders and analysts, translating commercial needs into software that actually solves problems. Your work is visible and your input is valued.
You will get exposure to AI tooling and evolving technologies as the business continues to develop its platform.
When it comes to what you bring, you have solid C# skills and good product knowledge of commodities. You understand relational databases well, ideally Oracle or SQL Server.
You have built that understanding working in an energy trading house, investment bank. Ready to build software that genuinely matters?
