Manager of VMS Account Management/Senior Technical Recruiter at MWResource, Inc.

Duration: 24 Months

Hybrid – 2-3 days Per Week Onsite

**PLEASE NOTE OUR CLIENT DOES NOT ACCEPT C2C

POSITION SUMMARY:

The Modeling Engineer Contractor position aides those supporting the real-time EMS system model development and maintenance using the Siemens Information Model Management (IMM) tool. The Engineer will participate in the coordination of the EMS database update and single line display building process to insure a coherent system model providing accurate modeling of real-time power system conditions using the Common Information Model (CIM). Other responsibilities include system database expansion for support of new and existing members, interfacing with Operations, Planning, and Markets staff to incorporate requested application, display, and model changes, and tuning of the State Estimator during the model update process. The engineer will also test and perform maintenance to the EMS Transmission Network Applications (TNA) suite of tools.

Sometimes the contractor may be asked to create training materials for use by internal staff on processes and procedures related to the model update process and the support of TNA.

The candidate should have a proven ability to learn rapidly through a combination of mentorship and self-guided discovery, and the willingness to work in a critical real-time environment. Modeling timelines are very rigid and getting the work done can require additional effort as deadlines approach, however we do our best to minimize the impact. The position is geographically based around our campus in Audubon, Pennsylvania. Both periodic and emergency onsite work may be required, but flex/hybrid work plans are broadly supported. The initial training period for up to six months will require an onsite presence 2-3 days per week. Once initial training is completed, longer term flexible/hybrid work schedules can be negotiated.

ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Define and Maintain Bulk Power Transmission and Generator models in the EMS
  • Evaluate and Maintain model data accuracy in the EMS
  • Review and process EMS model changes submitted by Transmission Owners (TO). Includes understanding power system schematics and basic equipment parameters as well as frequent communication with the TO
  • Create and update accurate single line diagrams using a Siemens Graphical Editor
  • Support the specification, testing, and development of the EMS system to ensure that it meets changing functional requirements
  • Supporting the process used to transfer model update and parameter information from IMM to TNA and assisting in addressing issues experienced during the transfer
  • Create and run scripts for comparison of transmission model versions in TNA
  • Creation and maintenance of departmental process and procedure documentation in support of the model build process and support of IMM.
  • Creation and maintenance of departmental process and procedure documentation to ensure compliance with Operating Agreement, manuals, and all applicable NERC and FERC requirements.
  • Other duties as assigned
