Overview
We are designing the Grid of the future.
Develop and conduct computer modeling and analysis for transmission planning studies, which include steady-state analysis, short circuit analysis, and dynamic stability analysis.
Studies may include near-term and long-term transmission planning, generator interconnection studies, reliability-driven transmission project alternatives development, and NERC standards compliance analyses.

How you can make an impact:
- Perform power system impact studies: Steady State, Short Circuit, and Dynamic Stability
- Perform NERC-compliance-related technical analyses such as TPL-001-4 Annual Planning Assessments
- Perform full generator interconnection studies which may also include Sub-Synchronous Resonance (SSR) studies
- Ensure that renewable and/or storage resource projects interconnecting to the transmission system meet Voltage Ride-Through (VRT) requirements
- Participate in ERCOT working group meetings and case building efforts on behalf of specific clients as assigned
- Prepare technical study reports for all studies performed
- Process, generate, and maintain data as required for all studies
- Take responsibility for the timely completion of projects assigned while meeting all project quality and budget objectives
- Identify training needs and present to the Engineering Manager as needed
