Expérience Minimum 10 ans

Total Energies Gas & Power Trading (TGP) and its affiliates are expanding rapidly in support of the company’s transition to power, driven by the acquisition of a broad range of energy assets—from renewables such as wind and solar to dispatchable assets like batteries and CCGTs. This growth brings increased trading volumes, a wider geographical footprint, and a strong need for process automation, all of which have significant implications for IT.

Within this context, the SCADA engineering team, part of the broader Trading IT organization, will support the Short‑Term Power and Asset Trading functions by delivering high‑performance trading and operational systems.

The SCADA Engineer Team Lead oversees the SCADA function within the TGPNA trading organization, ensuring the effective implementation, onboarding, configuration, and operational support of the DGM Asset Dispatch solution, the Generation Management System (GMS), and all related SCADA activities. The role requires deep expertise in SCADA and GMS technologies, strong coordination with trading operations—particularly around Automatic Generation Control (AGC)—and the design of user‑focused dashboards for real‑time operational visibility.

It plays a central role in enabling secure integration and connectivity for a diverse portfolio of U.S. energy assets, including CCGTs, batteries, and renewables. The position also collaborates closely with infrastructure teams, global project groups, and business affiliates to ensure alignment across asset management, industrial IT, and trading IT systems. As a design authority for SCADA‑to‑trading integration, the Lead SCADA Engineer contributes to strategic transformation initiatives supporting Total Energies’ expanding Gas & Power activities and the company’s broader transition into power markets.
