Job description

Lead a team in conducting network studies, modeling, simulation, and analysis using industry-standard software. The role supports project design and grid integration studies for renewable energy and energy storage systems, including protection coordination and planning for generation, transmission, and distribution projects.

Education & Experience

• Master's degree in Electrical Engineering with specialization in Power Systems / Power Electronics. PhD preferred.
• 10+ years of professional experience in the Power Systems domain.

Technical Requirements

• Strong foundation in power system fundamentals including load flow, fault analysis, protection principles, and generator/converter control.
• Practical experience in grid integration of renewable energy and battery energy storage systems, along with grid compliance requirements.
• Knowledge of relevant standards and grid codes such as IEC, IEEE, and applicable utility codes.
• Hands-on experience with MATLAB, PSCAD, PSS®E, DIgSILENT PowerFactory, ETAP, or similar tools.
• Excellent technical writing, communication, and presentation skills.

Mandatory Skills

• Experience in renewable energy integration (wind, solar PV, battery energy storage systems), engineering, and project execution. Modeling of various power system elements for steady-state, transient, and EMT studies.
• Familiarity with Python and cloud-based tools.

Good to Have Skills

• Additional experience in advanced power system studies and automation workflows.(Section was blank in source JD.)

Experience

• 10 to 12 years.

Key Responsibilities

• Execute load flow, short-circuit, harmonic, steady-state, dynamic, and transient stability studies for transmission and distribution networks. Lead study planning, task allocation, and delivery management.
• Build and validate detailed models of generators, inverters, transformers, transmission lines, loads, and protection systems using PSCAD, PSS®E, DIgSILENT PowerFactory, ETAP, and MATLAB. Maintain model governance and validated model libraries.
• Develop Single Line Diagrams (SLDs) based on project requirements defined by project managers.
• Build and validate models in DIgSILENT, perform testing, support Python-based interface development, validate use cases with stakeholders, and recommend continuous improvements to power system tools and solutions.
