TL;DR · Transmission System Operations Engineering Modeling Engineer

The Transmission System Operations Engineering Modeling Engineer joins the Ratings & Configuration team to ensure compliance with NERC and industry standards regarding transmission grid configuration changes. In this role, you will accurately model transmission system topology, including impedance and facility ratings for lines, stations, and transformers across medium, high, and extra-high voltages using internal modeling databases. You will fulfill technical requests from Engineering and Operations personnel via the ServiceNow ticketing system while collaborating with internal and external partners to model planned projects representing the future transmission system. The position requires applying engineering principles to solve well-defined problems and performing analysis for routine technical issues. Key competencies include technical expertise in grid standards, effective verbal and written communication, and the ability to coordinate work activities to resolve engineering tasks within a regulated utility environment.

What you'll do

  • Model transmission system topology including impedance and facility ratings for lines, stations, and transformers.
  • Maintain internal modeling databases for medium, high, and extra-high voltage systems.
  • Fulfill system modeling requests from Engineering and Operations personnel via the ServiceNow ticketing system.
  • Model planned projects to represent the future state of the transmission system.
  • Perform activities required to ensure compliance with NERC and industry standards.
  • Assist in the preparation of technical papers and reports.
  • Resolve routine engineering tasks and technical problems under the guidance of senior engineers.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in engineering from an ABET-accredited program or a bachelor's in engineering technology with a PE license.
  • For Grade 7 roles, candidates must have experience applying engineering technology principles.
  • Ability to model transmission system topology including impedance and facility ratings for various voltages.
  • Knowledge of NERC compliance standards and related industry regulations.
  • Proficiency in using internal modeling databases and ServiceNow ticketing systems.
  • Ability to communicate effectively both verbally and in writing to prepare reports and technical papers.
  • Flexibility to work non-traditional hours, including nights, weekends, and holidays.
  • Passing the Fundamentals of Engineering examination is preferred.
