At Enbridge, we are committed to delivering safe, reliable energy while driving financial excellence and innovation. We are seeking Capacity Planning Engineer Specialist to join our Houston based team! In this role, you will evaluate and optimize natural gas pipeline capacity across Enbridge’s U.S. Transmission assets using hydraulic modeling and operational expertise. You will assess expansion projects, forecast system capacity, optimize pipeline configurations and outage timing, and translate complex modeling results into actionable recommendations that strengthen system reliability, maximize capacity, and minimize customer impacts. Bring your pipeline expertise and strategic thinking to a role where your decisions will help optimize some of North America’s most critical natural gas infrastructure!

Note: Internal job title is Engineering Project Optimizer, Capacity Planning. This position is not eligible for employment‑based sponsorship now or in the future. Applicants must be legally authorized to work in the country where the position is located without requiring sponsorship from Enbridge now or in the future.

What You Will Do:

• Evaluate and optimize system expansion projects from an operational perspective, partnering with Design and System Planning teams to align assumptions with operational capabilities and identify potential near‑term capacity opportunities.
• Develop, calibrate, and maintain hydraulic models for U.S. natural gas pipeline and storage systems, using pipeline simulation and engineering tools to calculate and forecast operational capacity.
• Calculate, forecast, and publish daily system capacities using hydraulic models, meter data, outage information and seasonal demand profiles, with forecasts extending at least six weeks forward.
• Optimize pipeline configurations and planned and unplanned outage scenarios to maintain customer nominations, improve system efficiency and reliability, and minimize customer impacts.
• Coordinate and communicate capacity studies, outage plans, operating constraints and modeling results with Gas Control, Commercial Operations, Operations, Engineering, Scheduling, Marketing, Regulatory, Integrity Planning and other key stakeholders.
• Provide technical leadership and guidance on complex capacity and operational issues, including expansion planning, regulatory and Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) filings, incident investigations, commercial opportunities and reviews of modeling assumptions and results.

Who You Are:

• Hold a bachelor's degree in engineering, preference for Mechanical, Civil, Electrical, Petroleum, Chemical Engineering.
• 7+ years of oil and gas pipeline experience, including strong exposure to natural gas pipeline systems and operations.
• Knowledgeable in gas pipeline hydraulics, hydraulic simulation, natural gas flow, pipeline capacity analysis, and engineering modeling tools; experience with Gregg Engineering modeling software is preferred.
• Analytical with strong problem‑solving skills and the ability to evaluate complex operational scenarios, anticipate potential issues, develop solutions, and make sound recommendations under tight deadlines.
• Collaborative with strong communication and relationship‑building skills and the ability to work effectively across
