Engelhart was founded in 2013 by BTG Pactual Group as a commodities trading company. Our business model is “asset light” and
highly diversified – giving us the ability to adapt effectively and nimbly to changing market conditions. We have assembled
successful multidisciplinary teams, leveraging advanced fundamental analysis with deep quantitative and weather research
capabilities. Our activities are underpinned by strong risk management practices and by powerful technology and operational
excellence. We have exceptional teams with diverse global backgrounds and decades of experience, and are driven by a highly
collaborative culture, across products and competencies.
In 2024, Engelhart acquired Trailstone, a global energy trading and technology company. The acquisition provides us with new
expertise, analytics and proprietary technology which is being used to provide risk management and optimisation services to help
maximise the value of our clients’ renewable power. The acquisition also expanded Engelhart’s capabilities into physical natural
gas across North America, a critical fuel to support the energy transition.
Our talented and experienced individuals work together according to its four company values: Performance, Agility, Collaboration,
Entrepreneurship.
Our team runs systematic trading strategies in short-term power markets around the world. In many countries, trading algorithms
are central to how intermittent renewable power generation gets integrated into the grid - the liquidity and price signals we
provide are part of what makes the renewables transition work. This role offers a unique blend of technical challenge and societal
impact, providing you with end-to-end exposure to the full algorithmic trading value chain. This spans systems development for
automated trading, machine-learning operations, dev-ops, backtest technology, data engineering and dashboarding. Within this broad
purview, your primary focus will be platform development and technical operations.
This position is based in our Berlin office, and will be tasked with the following responsibilities:
etc.
creation of versatile reporting and visualisation frameworks.
You’re an engineer who wants their code running in production against live markets, not sitting in notebooks. You care about
correctness and reliability because the cost of a bug is real. Domain experience in power or energy markets is a plus, not a
requirement. We value diversity of thought and encourage applications from individuals with varied backgrounds and experiences.
As a result, we believe the following background and acquired knowledge will best set this individual up or success:
structures and algorithms.

In addition to the above, the following skills are not necessary for application, though highly advantageous for this role:
We believe in inclusivity and are therefore dedicated to ensuring all employees – across gender identity, race, ethnicity, sexual
orientation, religion, life experience, background and more – feel welcome and included in the company. We promote diversity
because we believe it is essential to our ability to think holistically.
