Job description

The Role: Power Solution Engineer

The Power Solution Engineer – ADMS plays a key role in supporting the deployment, configuration, validation, and optimization of Advanced Distribution Management System (ADMS) solutions for utility customers. This position combines power systems engineering, grid operations knowledge, and software application skills to deliver modern Digital Grid capabilities including real‑time monitoring, control, optimization, and network modeling.

The role is open to both fresh graduates with strong fundamentals in power systems and experienced engineers (3–5 years) seeking technical ownership opportunities in ADMS, DMS, or grid modernization projects.

What will you do?

1. ADMS Configuration & Power System Modeling

• Support development, validation, and maintenance of distribution network models (GIS import, load modeling, topology validation).
• Configure ADMS applications such as FLISR, VVO, state estimation, load flow, fault location, switching workflows, and network analysis tools.
• Conduct model tuning, scenario simulation, and power system studies required for customer deployments.

2. Solution Delivery & Project Execution

• Participate in ADMS implementation lifecycle: requirements gathering, design, configuration, testing, and commissioning.
• Assist in Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT), Site Acceptance Tests (SAT), and customer demonstrations.
• Prepare engineering documents including configuration guides, test plans, network model reports, and solution specifications.
• For experienced hires: Lead specific workstreams and ensure deliveries meet engineering quality standards.

3. Customer Engagement & Support

• Work closely with utility engineers to understand operational requirements, grid behaviors, constraints, and use cases.
• Provide technical support during deployment, cutover, Go-Live, and stabilization phases.
• Conduct training sessions or walkthroughs for customer power system teams as required.
• For experienced hires: Serve as subject matter expert (SME) support for specific ADMS applications or power analysis topics.

4. Cross Functional Collaboration

• Collaborate with IT/Deployment teams in the design of integrations interfaces related to OMS, Crew Management and Switching Management with external enterprise systems.
• Work alongside product, QA, and system integration teams to resolve technical issues and enhance solution performance.
• Provide field feedback to product teams for feature improvements, usability, and model accuracy.

5. Continuous Learning & Improvement

• Stay updated on distribution of grid modernization, ADMS functions, DER integration, and evolving utility operations.
• Contribute to internal knowledge repositories, modeling practices, and engineering playbooks.
• For experienced hires: Mentor junior engineers or graduates joining the team.

What qualifications will make you successful?

For Fresh Graduates

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, Power Systems, Energy Engineering, or related fields.
• Strong understanding of power system fundamentals (load flow, protection basics, distribution systems, network modeling).
• Exposure to simulation tools (PowerFactory, PSS®E, ETAP, CYME, PSCAD) is a plus.
• Showing interest in utility operations, real-time systems, and Digital Grid technologies (ADMS, DMS, OMS).
• Good analytical skills, willingness to learn, and passion for power system applications.

For 3–5 Years Experience (Optional)

• Hands‑on experience in power system modeling, distribution engineering, DMS/ADMS configuration, or network analysis.
• Working knowledge of utility operational processes (switching, outages, restoration, load management).
• Experience with DMS/ADMS applications such as FLISR, VVO, load flow, or state estimation is highly advantageous.
• Experience engaging utility customers or delivering engineering project workstreams.
• Strong troubleshooting, documentation, and customer-facing communication skills.

Soft Skills

• Strong communication and customer-facing abilities.
• High accountability and ownership mindset.
• Ability to work independently and collaboratively in multi‑disciplinary teams.
• Excellent troubleshooting, analytical thinking, and documentation skills.

Preferred Qualifications

• Familiarity with distribution automation, DER integration, microgrids, or renewable grid impacts.
• Certification or coursework in power systems, smart grid, or energy digitalization.

Key Success Indicators

• Accurate and validated distribution network models supporting operational use cases.
• Quality delivery of ADMS configurations, test cycles, and customer engagements.
• Positive customer feedback and strong technical problem-solving contributions.
• Growth in technical competency, ADMS application expertise, and solution delivery maturity.
• Effective collaboration with cross functional teams and adherence to engineering standards.
