We are seeking a highly experienced professional to join our Long Range Planning team in a key role that bridges the gap between system planning and constructability. This individual will be responsible for evaluating upcoming ERCOT-approved and internally planned transmission projects across our service territory to identify construction options (greenfield/bypass) and construction timelines for each, project sequencing and outage needs, and constructability constraints.

Their work will directly support safe, efficient project execution by aligning internal planning efforts with real-world construction requirements.

• Analyze and interpret “Planning Stories” developed by ERCOT and internal planners to identify project scope, system drivers, and regional impacts.
• Develop “planning story” documents identifying all system components that will be affected by project construction.
• Collaborate with internal Transmission Planning, Engineering, and Construction groups to shape the long-range buildout schedule in a way that maximizes system reliability and construction efficiency.
• Review portfolios of projects in common geographic or electrical zones to propose optimized sequencing and outage strategies across multiple years.
• Identify outage windows, ERCOT moratorium constraints (e.g., summer peak), and interdependencies between projects that impact buildability.
• Support the development of 3–5 year transmission build programs, incorporating constructability logic into the planning cycle.
• Serve as a subject matter liaison between Planning and Construction to ensure scope handoffs are aligned with field execution needs.
• Work with all project stakeholders to ensure accountability to the project plan and schedule.
