  • Support reliability assessments associated with transmission expansion plans, large load interconnections, generation interconnections, and emerging system conditions.
  • Provide technical leadership and guidance for complex engineering studies, analytical methodologies, and modeling practices.
  • Coordinate with MISO and PJM planning organizations to support regional planning activities, model development, study assumptions, project evaluations, and stakeholder initiatives.
  • Participate in MISO and PJM technical working groups, stakeholder processes, and regional planning activities.
  • Support coordination with large load developers, generation developers, neighboring utilities, and consultants to ensure accurate modeling information and study assumptions.
  • Provide technical oversight of consultant-performed studies, including review of methodologies, assumptions, results, recommendations, and deliverables.
  • Participate in site visits, testing activities, and commissioning support as needed to evaluate system performance and support validation of study assumptions.
  • Coordinate with Transmission Planning, Operations, Protection & Control, Generation, and other engineering organizations to ensure models, assumptions, and planning criteria remain current and consistent.
  • Lead the identification, analysis, and resolution of complex power system issues affecting transmission reliability and grid performance.
  • Prepare and present technical studies, reports, recommendations, correspondence, and presentations to leadership, stakeholders, and external organizations.
  • Manage project schedules, technical deliverables, stakeholder interfaces, and study execution for assigned initiatives.
  • Support development and continuous improvement of study methodologies, modeling practices, technical standards, and planning processes.
  • Mentor and provide technical guidance to engineers within the organization.
  • Develop and maintain positive working relationships with regulators, regional entities, neighboring utilities, consultants, developers, and internal stakeholders.
  • Represent Duke Energy positively and professionally with external stakeholders, industry organizations, and regulatory bodies.
  • Support compliance with applicable NERC Reliability Standards and regional planning requirements.

  • Experience with transmission planning and stability analysis software including PSS®E, PSCAD, TSAT, TARA, PowerWorld, or similar applications.
  • Strong understanding of dynamic stability analysis, EMT studies, harmonics analysis, oscillatory stability, and inverter-based resource performance.
  • Experience with transmission system protection principles, protection system design, relay settings, and protection coordination associated with transmission facilities and interconnections.
  • Experience supporting large load, data center, renewable generation, inverter-based resource, or generator interconnection projects.
  • Working knowledge of NERC Reliability Standards including TPL-001, CIP-014, MOD-026, MOD-027, MOD-032, and MOD-033.
  • Experience coordinating and overseeing technical work performed by consultants and external stakeholders.
