What you do

Forecasting & Stochastic Optimization
Solar forecasting

• Design, build, and deploy our end-to-end solar generation forecasting pipeline, integrating Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) outputs (e.g., ECMWF, DWD), site-specific metadata, panel degradation curves, and live telemetry feeds.
• Partner with the Trading Platform team to define concrete data engineering requirements, ensuring high-throughput, low-latency pipelines and infrastructure.
• Establish robust forecast validation frameworks and KPIs to drive continuous on model improvements.

Price & market signal forecasting

• Develop predictive models that capture the complex, weather-driven relationships between renewable generation peaks and intraday spot price dynamics.
• Translate forecasts into systematic trading signals that maximize intraday continuous (IDC) trading performance and mitigate market exposure risks.

Stochastic optimization & algo signals

• Contribute to our stochastic dynamic programming framework for optimal BESS and co-located asset dispatch.
• Formulate, backtest, and deploy high-fidelity quantitative signals directly into our algorithmic trading engine.
• Work closely our quantitative Trading Desk, actively reviewing, auditing, and improving our collective modeling approaches.

Cross-functional collaboration

• Seamlessly translate complex mathematical outputs into high-conviction, actionable insights for the Trading Desk, and coordinate system integrations with the Platform team.
• Play a key role in scaling our predictive modeling frameworks to new European markets as co-location expands.

Who you are

• M.Sc. or Ph.D. in a highly quantitative discipline (Statistics, Mathematics, Physics, Data Science, Econometrics, or similar).
• 3+ years of experience in quantitative modeling in energy or an adjacent field, on advanced forecasting, statistical regression, or machine learning frameworks (using tools like scikit-learn, statsmodels, Nixtla, Darts or PyTorch).
• Proficiency in processing multi-dimensional and large-scale datasets (using data manipulation tools like pandas/polars, numpy, JAX or xarray) combined with sound data validation and time-series backtesting practices.
• Proven writing clean, modular, and testable code, taking models successfully from development notebooks into live production environments.
• Understanding of physical and financial European power market mechanics (Day-Ahead, Intraday/XBID, and Ancillary Services/Balancing).
• Proven ability to work autonomously, think critically, and drive complex projects end-to-end.
• Fluent in English (both written and spoken).

Nice to have:

• Experience working with raw meteorological and NWP data (ECMWF, DWD, ERA5).
• Understanding of solar irradiance modelling and PV yield estimation.
• Exposure to mathematical programming (MILP, Stochastic Dynamic Programming, or Model Predictive Control) using algebraic modeling tools (e.g., Pyomo, CVXPY) and professional solvers (e.g., Gurobi).
• Experience building short-term trading signals or price forecasts (e.g., intraday price spreads, imbalance pricing) in volatile power markets.

About us

Shaping an emission-free energy and mobility future - that is the goal of The Mobility House. To achieve this, we combine the automotive and energy sectors with our technology. We integrate vehicle batteries into the power grid using intelligent charging and energy solutions. The whole thing started 15 years ago with a simple idea from our founder Thomas Raffeiner: What if idle electric cars could be used as mobile storage units? And make their potential available to the energy industry with its growing storage requirements? The idea for The Mobility House was born.

With over 350 employees, we are active worldwide from our locations in Munich, Zurich, Belmont, CA (USA), Paris and Singapore. We are always on the lookout for new faces who share our enthusiasm for our vision.
