Title: ETRM Platform Product Owner
Location: Stamford, CT (Hybrid) – with some relocation assistance
Duration: Direct Hire 
Work Requirements: US Citizen, GC Holders or Authorized to Work in the U.S.

Job Description: 
Rethink how energy trading platforms are built, owned, and evolved.

We have identified that we need a new ETRM to support our ambitions, and we're looking for a Senior ETRM Platform Product Owner to take full ownership of our ETRM as a product including integrations to the surrounding eco-system – from selection and implementation to long-term operation and evolution. This is not a project coordination role. You'll be the accountable owner, making clear decisions, setting boundaries, and ensuring the platform supports the business without creating platform debt.

What you'll do

  • You own the ETRM platform strategy and target operating model across trading, operations, risk, and finance
  • You lead the ETRM selection process with a platform-first mindset, focusing on APIs, data models, and integration maturity – not demo theatre
  • You drive vendor and system integrator engagement, including structured demos and technical proof-of-capability
  • You define and enforce clear system-of-record principles – what data lives where, and why
  • You own scope boundaries and backlog decisions: what belongs in the ETRM, external services, or third-party tools
  • You partner closely with architecture and engineering to define integration contracts, identifiers, reconciliation patterns, and observability standards
  • You lead scenario-based UAT, defect triage, and go-live readiness
  • You ensure strong controls are built in from day one: permissions, auditability, segregation of duties, and operational resilience
  • You own the platform post go-live, including change governance, release cadence, adoption, and data quality

Your Team
You'll work at the intersection of trading, market operations, risk, finance, and technology. You won't do this alone – but you will be the one accountable for outcomes. Expect close collaboration with solution architects, engineers, traders, and external vendors, in a flat organization where clear decision-making matters.

What you bring

  • You have 7+ years of experience with energy trading systems or ETRMs, with true ownership responsibility
  • You bring hands-on experience supporting natural gas trading and physical workflows end-to-end
  • You understand gas scheduling and logistics concepts such as nominations, actualizations, imbalances, storage, and capacity constraints
  • You've made – and defended – clear boundary decisions between ETRM, external services, and third-party tools
  • You're comfortable leading cross-functional delivery from requirements to go-live
  • You're technically literate and able to evaluate APIs, data models, integration patterns, and configuration vs. customization trade-offs
  • You challenge assumptions, push for evidence, and make solid decisions under uncertainty
  • You are well versed in scripting and automation (Python, PowerShell, Bash) to eliminate operational toil
  • You still write infrastructure code daily and are comfortable debugging Terraform, fixing pipelines, troubleshooting Kubernetes clusters
  • You have been the "go-to person " for critical production issues, not just the escalation point
  • You have a proven track record leading datacenter-to-cloud migrations or hybrid infrastructure transitions

How you work

  • You value evidence over opinions and expect vendors to prove capabilities
  • You're pragmatic and focused on shipping value without creating long-term platform debt
  • You communicate clearly across technical and business stakeholders
  • You take ownership and follow decisions through

What you can expect from us
You can expect a role with real influence, high expectations, and the freedom to shape how a critical trading platform is built and run. We offer a competitive compensation package, a flat and trust-based organization, and the chance to rethink how ETRM platforms support modern energy trading – not just today, but long term.
If you're ready to own a platform that truly matters, we'd like to hear from you.

Benefits:

  • Flexible working hours and hybrid work schedule
  • Medical, Dental, Vision, STD, LTD, Life insurance, all with employer contributions
  • 401k with employer matching
  • Parental leave including paid and unpaid options
  • Generous PTO policy and paid holidays
  • Monthly Door Dash allowance and snacks and drinks at the office
  • Optional cellphone reimbursement
