About Us
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.
About the Role
We are looking for an experienced back-end [Python] software engineer to join our growing Berlin office. This role will join the Trading & Commercial Development Team, developing best in class back-end services and microservices for our renewables trading platform, with Python.
The team is building a world-class product to help us scale and bring renewables to many more power markets in the world, while trading many more smaller electricity assets. This project is expanding at pace, following Trailstone’s merger with Engelhart Commodities Trading Partners. As a result, this role will be joining an international team with tangible impact on our platform's success from day one.
This will be a full-time role, owning the following responsibilities:
- Designing, developing and maintaining containerised services for auction-based renewables trading.
- Working in a cross-functional team with engineers, business analysts, traders, data engineers and data scientists.
- Staying up to date with the latest trends in technology and continuously improving our code base, systems and processes.
- Mentoring junior members of the team by emphasising code quality and conducting pull requests and code reviews.
About You
This person will be a seasoned Python developer, experienced working with time-sensitive hybrid-cloud systems in order to deliver immediate impact to our growing renewables trading platform. This person will be working closely with commercial stakeholders on a regular basis, so tangible experience collaborating with non-technical staff is highly desirable.
We believe the following skills & experiences will best set someone up for success in this role, therefore will be prioritising the following essential criteria:
- Significant relevant Python experience.
- Strong knowledge of object-oriented, functional and asynchronous programming and design patterns.
- Substantial SQL experience and understanding of relational database fundamentals.
- A passion for delivering clean code and working with a test-driven mindset.
- An appreciation of working in a hybrid-cloud and container-driven architecture (partly on-premise and partly AWS).
In addition to the above, the following experience is highly desirable but not essential for application:
- Domain knowledge in the energy or financial sector.
- Experience developing services in C#
Our Tech Stack
Our tech stack includes Python (FastAPI, Pandas), AWS (ECS, Aurora), Redis, Docker, Atlassian (Jira, Bitbucket), SQL Server, C# and more.
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.
