Join us in leading the change!
We are seeking an experienced Power Systems Software Engineer to join the EPE software team. You'll sit at the intersection of transmission planning and software: turning the way planners actually run studies into reliable, automated, cloud-based tools that utilities, ISOs/RTOs, and developers use every day.
Your primary responsibility is to design, test, and validate software that supports and accelerates transmission planning and interconnection assessment workflows. You will work closely with power system engineers, software developers, and product owners to define requirements, automate processes, and make sure our tools produce results that engineers trust.
How you can make an impact
- Domain requirements & product input: Translate transmission planning practice (study scopes, criteria, contingency definitions, mitigation logic) into clear requirements, user stories, and acceptance criteria for the development team.
- Software design & testing: Design and test features that enhance utility-scale generation interconnection and transmission planning assessments, including steady-state, short circuit, and dynamic stability workflows.
- Automation & programming: Use Python and related tools to automate study setup, execution, and post-processing, and to build tools that streamline transmission system studies and simulations.
- Model & data management: Work with power flow and dynamics case data, contingency and monitored-element files, and supporting data to keep models and inputs clean, versioned, and reproducible.
- Software validation & benchmarking: Benchmark tool results against established industry software and hand-calculated or reference studies; troubleshoot discrepancies to ensure accuracy, reliability, and performance.
- Collaboration: Partner with transmission planners, software developers, and cross-functional teams to develop and integrate solutions that energy development and planning teams need.
- Documentation: Write clear methodology notes, user guides, and release validation reports that help engineers understand and trust tool outputs.
