Job Description

The ideal candidate has strong power-systems engineering experience, particularly in utility interconnection, substations, energy storage, on-site generation, and large-load infrastructure.

Key Responsibilities

Power Systems Engineering

+ Develop and assess power-system architectures for utility supply, substations, energy storage, load management, on-site generation, and campus electrical interfaces.

+ Produce technical requirements, design criteria, calculations, specifications, and engineering recommendations for site-specific and repeatable fleet solutions.

+ Apply established engineering standards and contribute to the development of global design philosophies, modeling methods, technical acceptance criteria, and validation practices.

+ Identify technical risks, constraints, and opportunities affecting capacity, schedule, resiliency, operability, and future campus expansion.

+ Translate complex grid and power-system issues into clear technical recommendations for project and business stakeholders.

Utility Interconnection and Grid Engineering

+ Perform technical evaluations of utility capacity, transmission and distribution infrastructure, substations, reliability, power quality, fault duty, and expansion requirements.

+ Support engagement with utilities, transmission providers, ISOs/RTOs, developers, and engineering partners on interconnection and power-delivery solutions.

+ Define and review requirements for interconnection facilities, substations, protection and controls, grounding, and campus electrical interfaces.

+ Evaluate alternatives that may accelerate energization, reduce delivery risk, or unlock additional capacity.

+ Provide technical analyses and engineering support to Energy Contracting during utility negotiations and commercial discussions.

Early Site Power Engineering

+ Conduct power-system due diligence for prospective data-center sites.

+ Develop conceptual power architectures and compare utility and behind-the-meter alternatives during site selection and early development.

+ Assess interconnection complexity, infrastructure lead times, system reliability, power quality, and long-term expansion potential.

+ Partner with Real Estate, Site Development, Capacity Planning, and Energy Contracting to incorporate power feasibility into site and investment decisions.

Energy Storage, Load Management, and On-Site Generation

+ Develop engineering analyses and technical requirements for battery energy storage systems, including sizing, controls, protection, operating modes, safety, degradation, and lifecycle performance.

+ Evaluate BESS use cases including resiliency, grid support, load management, transient response, and capacity optimization.

+ Analyze load-curtailment, demand-response, flexible-load, ramp-rate-management, and peak-reduction opportunities with utilities.

+ Develop and assess architectures coordinating utility supply, data-center load, BESS, UPS systems, and on-site generation.

+ Support engineering of natural-gas generation, fuel cells, microgrids, renewable generation, and emerging power technologies.

+ Evaluate generation configuration, synchronization, protection, controls, grounding, black-start capability, islanding, fuel supply, emissions constraints, and maintainability.

Modeling, Analysis, Testing, and Validation

+ Perform or coordinate load-flow, short-circuit, protection coordination, harmonic, transient, dynamic stability, grounding, and arc-flash studies.

+ Use PSCAD, ETAP, SKM, EMTP, or comparable tools to model interactions among utility systems, generation, BESS, UPS technologies, and dynamic data-center loads.

+ Develop models and analysis methods that account for evolving AI and high-performance-computing load characteristics.

+ Support First-of-a-Kind qualification plans, including factory, laboratory, and site testing for power-system technologies.

+ Define test scenarios and acceptance criteria covering normal operations, transitions, failure modes, recovery, dynamic response, and system interactions.

+ Document results and recommend whether technologies are ready for broader fleet deployment.

Technology and Partner Engagement

+ Evaluate emerging technologies that may improve power availability, resiliency, utilization, cost, or deployment speed.

+ Work with OEMs, utilities, laboratories, consultants, and engineering partners to resolve technical issues and improve proposed solutions.

+ Contribute technical input to technology qualification roadmaps and standardization efforts.

+ Support the transition of successful site-specific or FOAK solutions into repeatable engineering practices.

Responsibilities

+ 10+ years of experience in power systems engineering, utility infrastructure, generation, transmission and distribution, energy storage, or mission-critical infrastructure.

+ Strong technical knowledge of utility interconnections, substations, protection and controls, power-system studies, and large electrical loads.

+ Experience developing, analyzing, or integrating BESS, on-site generation, microgrids, load-management, or other behind-the-meter power solutions.

+ Understanding of utility planning, grid constraints, interconnection processes, and large-load customer requirements.

+ Experience using power-system modeling tools such as PSCAD, ETAP, SKM, EMTP, or equivalent platforms.

+ Ability to conduct engineering analyses, develop technical requirements, and communicate findings clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

+ Ability to work independently on complex engineering problems while collaborating across multidisciplinary project teams.
