We’re proud of who we are and the work we do to support our communities and customers who depend on us, because at ENMAX, we’re lighting the way together. 

We’re looking for an Energy Market Modelling & Analytics Specialist to join our team.

In this role, you’ll bring together your knowledge of electricity markets with quantitative modelling, financial analysis, data science, data engineering, and technology to help strengthen our Energy Market capabilities.

Your work will help improve how we use data, automate processes, optimize our approach, and make informed decisions across our competitive business.

You’ll enjoy this role if you’re curious, creative, and comfortable working through ambiguity. The energy market can move quickly, and the answers are not always obvious.

• Translate business and market requirements into modelling approaches, data requirements, technical specifications, and production-ready solutions.
• Assess commercial drivers and risks through scenario analysis, sensitivity analysis, stochastic simulation, back testing, and financial modelling.
• Partner with trading, commercial, risk, finance, engineering, data science, and technology teams to address wholesale business and operational challenges.
• Own analytical models, data pipelines, and technical applications through their full lifecycle, from development and testing through production implementation, optimization, and ongoing maintenance.
• Apply programming, data science, and engineering practices to automate and scale analytical processes, improve model performance, and enable repeatable, production-ready solutions.
• Identify opportunities to improve modelling, automation, optimization, and decision-making across the competitive business, and translate those opportunities into practical solutions.
• Communicate complex technical, financial, and market analysis clearly, providing actionable insights to senior leadership and internal stakeholders.
• Deliver high-quality analysis and solutions within tight timelines, adapting to evolving market conditions, business priorities, and REM requirements.

Education Required:

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Analytics, Computer Science, Statistics, Finance, Economics, or related discipline from an accredited university.

Qualifications & Experience:

• 8 years related industry and technical experience.
• Strong financial modelling skills, including discounted cash flow analysis, revenue forecasting, operating costs, capital expenditures, depreciation, taxes, discount rates, and valuation.
• Experience with statistical modelling, machine learning, stochastic simulation, optimization, or other advanced analytical techniques.
• Proficiency with Python, SQL, Excel, and other quantitative software applications.
• Advanced statistical modelling and/or data science skills with experience applying these methods to understand and forecast market outcomes.
• Knowledge of Alberta electricity markets, market fundamentals, and energy-related commercial activities.
• Direct experience with the Restructured Energy Market (REM), R30, or locational marginal pricing is an asset.
• Experience with Azure, Databricks, Spark, or other cloud-based data engineering and analytics platforms is an asset.
• Experience developing and implementing technical applications, data pipelines, analytical models, and automated workflows is an asset.

Competencies:

• Comfortable working with ambiguity and moving forward when the answer is not always clear.
• Curious and creative, with a willingness to ask questions, explore new ideas, and find better ways to solve problems.
• Able to explain complex technical, financial, and market information clearly to different audiences.
