Job Description
Power Systems Advisory Engineer supporting smart grid technology for electric cooperatives. Leading engineering insights and project execution in a collaborative environment.
Responsibilities:
- Serve as a trusted engineering advisor to member cooperatives by clarifying objectives, understanding operational constraints, and translating needs into practical engineering approaches and phased roadmaps
- Lead discovery conversations with engineering, operations, and leadership stakeholders to define problems, constraints, decision criteria, and success measures; document findings in clear, action-oriented summaries
- Communicate complex technical concepts in decision-ready language for both technical and non-technical audiences, including executive-level briefings and board-ready materials
- Execute and/or review distribution planning and power system studies, including protection and coordination, arc-flash, fault duty, voltage management and optimization, and power quality assessments, with clear mitigation recommendations
- Develop study scopes, assumptions, and methodologies that reflect cooperative realities and align recommendations with implementable next steps
- Provide distributed generation and interconnection planning support, including screening, system impact evaluations, and mitigation options for generators, batteries, and behind-the-meter resources.
- Support the development and improvement of member DG processes by creating repeatable engineering screens, standard work, data requirements, timelines, and templates
- Lead reliability and system modernization planning, including feeder improvement concepts, device strategies (reclosers, sectionalizers, DA devices), and integration considerations for SCADA and field automation
- Partner with member teams to translate reliability goals (e.g., SAIDI/SAIFI) into prioritized, fundable portfolios of projects and operational improvements
- Contribute to wildfire risk mitigation planning by aligning engineering approaches to risk reduction outcomes, coordinating with internal advisory resources and external partners as needed
- Provide owner’s engineer support on select projects, including design and study reviews, validation of assumptions, procurement/specification input, and implementation oversight
- Own end-to-end delivery of assigned projects, including scoping, scheduling, internal coordination, quality assurance, and timely completion of deliverables
- Produce high-quality, defensible technical deliverables such as models, memoranda, reports, and diagrams suitable for reuse and audit
- Support development and refinement of engineering service offerings through standard scopes, estimating tools, reusable templates, and “starter packages” that improve consistency, utilization, and speed to launch
- Identify opportunities to extend or deepen member engagements and coordinate with advisory teams to support continuity from assessment through planning, engineering, and implementation
- Other duties as assigned
Requirements:
- Bachelor of Science in Engineering from an ABET-accredited institution or equivalent combination of technical education and relevant experience required
- Six (6) or more years of experience working with electric utilities; experience with electric cooperatives strongly preferred
- Professional Engineer (PE) license preferred
- Demonstrated proficiency with engineering modeling software and Microsoft Office tools
- Proven experience applying engineering expertise in a client-facing, advisory, or shared-services context
Benefits:
- Health insurance
- Retirement plans
- Paid time off
- Flexible work arrangements
