About The Position

Role and Responsibilities Support verification of facility models, system parameters, relay settings, and operational data required for reliability and compliance assessments. Perform power system analyses under supervision, including generator behavior, system stability, and protection-related studies. Assist with engineering documentation required for NERC audits, internal reviews, and evidence retention. Participate in grid event analysis, disturbance reviews, and reliability investigations in a supporting role. Collaborate with cross‑functional teams to support engineering and compliance objectives. Support engineering change management, including reviews of new equipment, facility upgrades, and interconnection requests. Assist with drafting engineering reports, technical summaries, and system diagrams. Contribute to continuous improvement efforts related to engineering workflows, data quality, and compliance readiness. Support development and use of automation scripts and analytical tools to improve efficiency of reliability studies. Apply foundational power system engineering principles to support analysis of datacenter operations and inverter‑based resource (IBR) integration, including basic stability and control considerations. Support client engagements by assisting with technical analysis and preparing explanations of study results. Coordinate with internal teams and external stakeholders to support accurate data collection and reporting. Use industry-standard tools for modeling and analysis; develop increasing proficiency in Python or similar scripting tools. Support regulatory communications and compliance inquiries as directed. Perform additional tasks as assigned.
