We are looking for a Power Systems Consultant to join Grid Software’s Power Technologies International (PTI) team. This role, that could be assumed by a Junior or a Senior professional, is critical to the planning and integration of renewables, storage, and FACTS to the electrical grid and to perform large-scale simulations of electrical transmission systems for clients such as power producers, independent system operators, and transmission providers to develop solutions for safe and reliable power system operations.

Assuming a Junior, position you’ll make an impact as you:

• Perform transmission planning through the application of power systems planning principles to simulate and analyze the power system steady state and dynamic behavior.
• Prepare detailed written reports describing analyses performed, conclusions, and recommendations.
• Work in small project teams, ensuring deliverables are of high quality and projects are completed within budget and schedule.
• Develop automation scripts to improve the speed and accuracy of simulations and analysis.
• Support proposal preparation by developing project plans, budgets, and timelines.
• Deliver on-site technical consulting/training services.

Minimum requirements as a Junior Consultant:

• Postgraduate degree in Electrical Engineering with a specialization in Power and Energy Systems.
• At least one year of relevant experience in the electric power industry (time earning an advanced relevant degree and relevant internships may be considered towards the one-year experience requirement).
• Practical experience using advanced power systems analysis tools.
• Candidate must have knowledge (through experience, coursework, or applicable related internship) of transmission system planning or operations with experience analyzing power flow and dynamic stability.
• Ability to travel 10% domestically.

Preferred qualifications:

• Prior experience in Power System Consulting.
• Prior experience in EMT study
• Transmission system planning or operations experience.
• Ph.D in Electrical Engineering with a specialization in Power and Energy Systems.

• Maintaining relationships with clients to ensure satisfaction and identify opportunities for further business.
• Supporting proposal preparation by developing project plans, budgets, and timelines.
• Providing mentoring and technical development to junior consultants.
• Developing automation scripts to streamline repetitive tasks, reduce errors, and boost overall efficiency.
• Delivering on-site consulting and training services

Minimum requirements as a Senior Consultant :

• Postgraduate degree in Electrical Engineering with a specialization in Power and Energy Systems.
• Minimum of 5 years of experience performing power systems analysis for electric utilities, ISOs, RTOs, and/or developers.
• Experience analyzing power flow and dynamic stability using PSS®E, TSAT™, TARA, PSLF™, or PowerWorld.
• Good knowledge of Reliability Standards with understanding of RTO and other regional planning criteria, procedures, and practices.
• Strong communication, presentation, and listening skills with demonstrated ability to write effective technical reports.
• Ability to travel 10% domestically and internationally.

Preferred qualifications:
