Elektron Energy is a large, privately held Bitcoin mining company. We manage a growing portfolio of mining sites across the United States and select international markets. We're built by Bitcoiners and operate by the principles that come with that: transparency, proof of work, and a high standard of execution. We're scaling quickly and this is an opportunity to be part of that growth from an early stage.
About the Role
This role brings the quantitative depth to forecast the variables that drive the business and to build the large, multi-part models behind transactions and the business plan. You will work closely with the Chief Strategy Officer, take the quantitative work from brief through to finished analysis, and turn the math into clear commercial signals the team can act on.
Responsibilities
- Build and maintain Elektron's internal forecasts for the variables that drive the business (hash rate, network difficulty, Bitcoin transaction fees, and energy prices), with a documented methodology behind each so the numbers can be explained and trusted
- Build the large, multi-part financial models behind transactions and the business plan, and run the deepest quantitative workstreams end to end so each gets full, focused attention
- Scope a key variable on request, research it properly, and tie it back to the commercial decision it feeds, whether to move earlier or later, buy or hold, etc.
- Turn quantitative results into clear commercial implications and decision-ready outputs the commercial team and leadership can use directly
- Build reusable models, data pipelines, and documentation so forecasts can be rerun and trusted, and help build a consistent internal approach to how Elektron forecasts
- Extend coverage over time into adjacent questions like quantum risk and fleet-efficiency and maintenance evolution
- Work with the wider strategy team on shared inputs and a single source of truth
- The large transaction and business models are accurate, well-structured, and decision-ready
- Quantitative work reliably comes with the commercial implication attached, and shapes real decisions
- Over the first year, Elektron has a documented, repeatable way of forecasting its key variables that the team builds on
Qualifications
- A strong quantitative background: a degree in mathematics, statistics, actuarial science, physics, or similar, or equivalent experience, and the ability to build forecasting and pricing models from scratch
Required Skills
- Hands-on experience building production models, pricing engines, or forecasting systems, ideally where the output drove real commercial or financial decisions
- Strong Python, and comfort with SQL and data pipelines for working with messy real-world data
- The ability to translate a complex quantitative result into a plain commercial implication, not just the math
- The judgment to use AI and other tools well: fast when they help, sharp enough to catch when the output is wrong, and able to stand behind the result. The expertise sits with you, not the tool
Preferred Skills
- Preferred: actuarial or insurance pricing, quantitative finance, energy or commodity markets, or machine learning applied to forecasting.
- Interest in Bitcoin is a plus, not a requirement
Pay range and compensation package
- Base salary in GBP plus a discretionary annual bonus. Placement reflects depth of quantitative and modeling experience.
- Unlimited paid time off.
- Fully remote.
- Private medical insurance and a pension plan.
