Senior Power Systems Engineer

• - Power Flow Solutioning:
  Evaluate open-source and licensed power flow engines using real distribution feeders, benchmark their performance, and recommend the most suitable solution. Integrate the selected engine into the product and ensure it operates effectively at scale.
• - Capacity Digital Twin:
  Build and maintain a validated, versioned digital representation of utility distribution networks, transforming connectivity models and source data into reliable grid models for planning studies.
• - Utility Data Integration:
  Define the network, asset, AMI, SCADA, and forecasting data requirements. Develop repeatable integrations using CIM, GIS, and vendor-specific formats, and establish processes for handling incomplete or inconsistent data.
• - Grid Model Accuracy:
  Engineer meter-to-transformer-to-phase confidence, SCADA calibration, and data-quality exception handling into the product. Ensure connectivity gaps and data limitations are explicitly identified rather than producing misleading results.
• - Scenarios, Forecasting, and Real Loading:
  Develop planning scenarios covering base, future, flexibility, contingency, and switching cases. Translate load, DER, EV, electrification, and large-load forecasts into study-ready asset-level 8760 P/Q profiles and phase scenarios.
• - Time-Series Execution:
  Build reliable, repeatable 8760 and time-series execution capabilities that allow planners to run scenarios at production scale.
• - Real Loading Models:
  Develop hourly, per-phase loading models across grid assets using AMI-derived demand, reconciled with SCADA data and accounting for phase allocation, coincidence, unmetered load, and losses.
• - Interconnection Studies:
  Build product capabilities for evaluating new load and DER connections, including request intake, point-of-interconnection mapping, hosting capacity screening, headroom assessment, and system and contingency impact checks.
• - Large-Load and Data Center Modeling:
  Incorporate phased energization, 8760 P/Q profiles, cooling and commissioning scenarios, and onsite generation, storage, and UPS configurations into interconnection studies.
• - Flexible Interconnection:
  Develop support for firm, phased, conditional, and flexible service options, including import, ramp, and curtailment envelopes. Ensure failed study cases can lead to proposed repairs or alternative connection paths.
• - Engineering Quality and Validation:
  Own the technical design of the power flow, digital twin, and study layers. Collaborate with software developers on performance, failure handling, observability, and maintainability.
• - Testing and Benchmarking:
  Establish QA and regression testing processes to ensure changes do not compromise electrical results. Benchmark outputs against trusted planning tools and field data, investigate differences, and document technical assumptions.
• - Rapid Proofs of Concept:
  Deliver practical proofs of concept using utility data within days, evaluating new study capabilities, solver options, or interconnection approaches. Clearly identify shortcuts and transition successful solutions into production.
• - Product and Pilot Validation:
  Define acceptance tests, validate pilots and proofs of value, and explain technical results directly to utility planners and engineers. Work with Product, Data Science, and business leadership to establish the evidence needed for adoption.

The ideal candidate is an experienced power systems professional who combines strong distribution engineering expertise with a product-building mindset and the ability to work effectively alongside software developers. The following qualifications and capabilities are expected:

• - Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, preferably with a specialization in…
