You will contribute to our team by:

Key Accountabilities:
• Serve as the single point of contact for all new commodity and market data curve requests and manage the intake process from request through governance approval.
• Design, build, calibrate, and document forward price curve models across commodities and delivery points, including directly observable, interpolated, and proxy / spread-to-benchmark approaches.
• Own and maintain the central curve register, ensuring all curves are catalogued with current attributes, approval status, and scheduled review dates.
• Configure and maintain approved price curves in ZEMA (data ingestion, quality rules, curve construction logic) and Allegro (curve definition, valuation formulas, P&L attribution); lead UAT and production deployment.
• Monitor daily curve production across all curves; investigate and resolve data feed failures, quality alerts, and other flags within EOD SLAs; maintain and test fallback procedures.
• Execute the firm's daily validation and monthly independent price verification (IPV) process; compare curve outputs to independent market sources; prepare and distribute IPV reports; escalate material exceptions.
• Conduct or coordinate independent validation of all new and materially modified price curve models; issue structured validation reports; track findings to remediation; manage the periodic revalidation schedule.
• Prepare and present submissions to Risk Oversight Committee; produce periodic governance reports covering inventory status, open findings, IPV exception trends, and curve performance.
• Maintain the model risk and governance framework for price curves in alignment with Model Risk Policy and applicable regulatory guidance; support audits and regulatory examinations.

• Automate repetitive data processes and controls using scripting, with an ability to identify opportunities to streamline manual workflows.
• Develop, validate, and maintain pricing methodologies, including proxy/spread-to-benchmark and regression-based approaches, across liquid and illiquid markets.
• Demonstrate working knowledge of power market data, forward price curves, and valuation models in regional markets (e.g., WECC, AESO, PJM).
• Leverage AI and emerging analytical tools (e.g., Copilot, LLMs, machine learning libraries) to enhance data quality checks, anomaly detection, and reporting efficiency, or demonstrate a genuine curiosity and willingness to explore these tools as they evolve.
