AI Summary

The engineer will develop, maintain, and validate complex power system models while performing advanced electrical studies for transmission and generation projects. They will also collaborate with U.S. utilities and ISOs/RTOs to provide technical reports and mentorship to junior staff.

We are seeking a Senior Power Systems Modeling Engineer to join a specialized international power systems engineering team supporting projects across the U.S. power market.

The successful candidate will be responsible for developing, maintaining, reviewing, and validating complex power system models and performing advanced electrical system studies related to transmission planning, generation interconnection, load interconnection, renewable generation, Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), conventional generation, transmission infrastructure, and large-load developments.

The role will involve performing power flow, contingency, short-circuit, voltage stability, transient stability, dynamic modeling, and other power system analyses. The engineer will evaluate transmission constraints, thermal violations, voltage issues, system reliability, and the potential grid impacts associated with new generation and large-load projects.

The Senior Power Systems Modeling Engineer will also develop and validate generator, renewable generation, and inverter-based resource models, support dynamic and transient stability studies, and assist with EMT studies when required.

The position requires the ability to independently manage complex technical studies, review technical data and study assumptions, interpret simulation results, identify potential modeling or system issues, and prepare clear technical reports and recommendations.

The engineer will collaborate with U.S. utilities, developers, consultants, ISOs/RTOs, transmission organizations, and internal engineering teams. The role may also include reviewing technical work produced by other engineers and providing guidance and mentorship to junior and mid-level engineering staff.

This is a remote, full-time position based in Mexico, supporting sophisticated U.S. power system and grid infrastructure projects.
