ABOUT THE POSITION:This position is within Fluence’s Digital team and focused on Fluence’s optimisation and algorithmic bidding software offering, Mosaic. Mosaic is the most widely adopted algorithmic bidding software tool in use in the Australian National Electricity Market (NEM) and is currently used by dozens of semi-scheduled wind & solar generators and more than a dozen grid-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS), to optimise and streamline their market participation. Fluence Digital’s clients range from large established gentailers, to small new-entrant IPPs, and the energy assets using the Mosaic software have a diversity of configurations, capabilities, and commercial objectives.
The Energy Trading Analyst will be an integral member of the Fluence Digital team, supporting colleagues (internally) and clients (externally) with subject matter expertise and expert analytical advice regarding the effectiveness of bidding strategies and optimisation techniques at BESS assets using Fluence’s Mosaic software.
The Energy Trading Analyst will develop deep subject matter expertise in the use of Fluence’s bidding tools and the way BESS interface with the NEM, and will promote overall client success and satisfaction by providing clients with expert advice on recommended bid strategy settings and periodic fine-tuning of key optimisation input settings, to help Fluence’s clients maximise the value they get from use of the Mosaic software.
