Duties and Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

• Performs complex modeling and technical analysis of power systems to assess, validate and optimize interconnection, transmission, and distribution projects, from early feasibility through advancement with jurisdictional processes of related planned authorities, through to detailed specification, support of commissioning, or post construction problem resolution, involving conventional AC and high voltage DC transmission, and interconnection of generation involving conventional and inverter-based resources - solar, wind, offshore wind, and energy storage.
• Develops preliminary engineering deliverables in support of application and jurisdictional study processes that establish basic specifications, conceptual plans, and supporting models, and responds to technical inquiries from jurisdictional planning authorities to defend related projects, and to comply with requests that seek to refine modeling
• Performs full range of power system studies on associated with conceptual planning, design specification and problem resolution, involving steady-state analysis, such as power flow and short circuit analysis, and analysis of transient phenomenon involving harmonics, switching, and insulation coordination.
• Performs simple protective device coordination and arc flash studies
• Performs surveys, and subsequent data analysis to inform on power quality issues
• Utilizes wide range of software tools to assist in power system studies and data analysis tasks
• Publish and present study results at meetings and conferences
• Perform routine work that conforms to all project/task requirements and that requires a basic understanding and application of engineering theories, standards, concepts, techniques, as well as, knowledge of engineering/industry codes and government regulations

Compensation package includes competitive salary (commensurate with experience), annual performance bonus, and an attractive benefits package.
