Power Markets Analyst
WFA Digital Insight
Tyba’s Power Markets Analyst sits at the intersection of market intelligence and product engineering, a rare blend that lets a seasoned trader shape real‑time storage decisions. Unlike generic analyst posts, this role lives inside a fast‑moving commercial operations team that feeds directly into a modeling platform used by renewable developers. The analyst owns the ISO narrative—turning settlement statements into actionable insights, partnering with engineers to refine optimization algorithms, and feeding policy teams on regulatory shifts. Candidates should be comfortable speaking to both technical and customer audiences while navigating the nuances of a specific market such as MISO or CAISO. The position offers a direct line from data to asset performance, making it ideal for those who want their market expertise to drive product impact.
Job Description
About Tyba Tyba is a modeling platform for energy companies developing, financing, and operating renewable energy infrastructure. Energy companies rely on technical models daily to make crucial infrastructure decisions. Our mission is to make cutting-edge models accessible to cross-functional teams so that companies can build and operate more renewable energy more profitably. We are backed by leading climate and generalist VCs and work with many of the industry’s most innovative energy companies. The role We're looking for a Power Markets Analyst to join Tyba's Commercial Operations team. This is a specialized role for someone who has spent years deep inside one or more organized electricity markets — and wants to put that expertise to work at the analytics layer of a fast-growing storage optimization platform on behalf of our customers. You'll own market analytics for designated ISO market(s) — producing internal and external market insights for commercial teams and partnering with engineering to drive optimization improvements. The right candidate has the instincts of an energy trader: you can read a settlement statement, diagnose a dispatch decision, and know what the market was doing and why. You've likely worked at a utility, IPP, trading firm, or ISO, and you're ready to apply that depth in a fast-paced role where your analysis directly shapes how real assets perform in real time. Primary market focus: MISO, CAISO, NYISO, PJM, and SPP. Deep experience in one of these markets is required; breadth across multiple is a strong plus. Responsibilities - Own commercial analytics for your designated ISO market(s) — serve as the internal subject matter expert on market strategy and pricing dynamics.
- Partner with the engineering team to identify and prioritize performance improvement opportunities on a per-ISO basis; translate market insights into actionable product and model guidance.
- Produce weekly, monthly, and quarterly market intelligence for internal stakeholders and external customers — including performance recaps, market condition reports, and strategic commentary.
- Prototype internal tooling and monitoring infrastructure (e.g., risk outlooks, real-time market monitors, congestion).
- Collaborate with our policy team to navigate regulatory and market design changes in your ISO(s).
- Deep knowledge of at least one organized electricity market — MISO, SPP, CAISO, NYISO, PJM— including market structure, bidding rules, settlement mechanics, and storage-specific participation requirements.
- Comfort working with large time series datasets and settlement data; proficiency in Python, SQL, or equivalent analytical tooling is strongly preferred.
- Ability to translate complex market dynamics into clear, data-backed narratives for both technical and non-technical audiences. While we don’t expect this role to own customer relationships, this role will be customer-facing.
- Self-directed and analytically rigorous — you set your own research agenda, find the signal in noisy data, and know how to communicate what matters.
Salary
$135K - $170K, depending on experience and qualifications.- ## Benefits
- Equity Options: Opportunity to own a stake in the company through an employee stock option plan.
- Flexible Work Environment: Hybrid work model, remote work options, and team offsites.
How to Stand Out
- Highlight any Python or SQL projects that involve large time‑series data; include code snippets or GitHub links in your portfolio.
- Prepare a concise case study that shows how you turned a settlement statement into a strategic recommendation.
- Emphasize experience with a specific ISO (e.g., CAISO) in both your resume and cover letter; recruiters will look for that depth.
- During interviews, be ready to discuss how you would prioritize market‑driven product improvements with engineering.
- Research Tyba’s platform basics so you can speak intelligently about how your market insights would integrate.
- When negotiating salary, reference the disclosed range and be prepared to discuss equity expectations.
- Watch for vague descriptions of “remote work” that lack clear expectations about collaboration tools or meeting cadence; ask clarifying questions early.
