Transmission System Planning Engineer

Full-Time | Hybrid

All Levels: Engineer, Senior/Lead Engineer, or Principal Engineer

The Opportunity

We are seeking a Transmission System Planning Engineer to support the planning, analysis, and long-term reliability of a high-voltage electric transmission network.

In this role, you will perform power system studies, evaluate transmission system performance, identify reliability and capacity constraints, and develop solutions that support future system needs. You will work with transmission planning models and collaborate with engineering, operations, consultants, interconnected utilities, and other industry stakeholders.

This position may be filled at the Engineer, Senior/Lead Engineer, or Principal Engineer level based on experience and technical expertise.

What You'll Do

  • Perform power flow, contingency, voltage, transient stability, and related transmission planning studies.
  • Develop, maintain, and validate transmission planning models and study cases.
  • Identify thermal, voltage, stability, reliability, and capacity limitations and evaluate potential solutions.
  • Support long-range transmission planning and development of future system improvements.
  • Perform or lead generation interconnection, load service, feasibility, and system impact studies.
  • Evaluate transmission alternatives and develop recommendations for system improvements and capital projects.
  • Apply applicable NERC Reliability Standards, WECC criteria, and transmission planning requirements.
  • Prepare technical reports and communicate study findings and engineering recommendations.
  • Coordinate technical studies with engineering, operations, consultants, customers, interconnected utilities, and regional organizations.
  • Participate in regional transmission planning activities and technical forums.
  • At senior levels, lead complex studies, review technical work, direct consultants, mentor engineers, and provide technical guidance.

What We're Looking For

Engineer

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering; Electrical Engineering with a power systems emphasis preferred.
  • Entry-level through approximately 5 years of relevant power engineering experience.
  • Experience or academic background in power systems, transmission planning, power flow analysis, system modeling, or related areas.
  • Transmission planning or electric utility experience is preferred as experience level increases.
  • EIT/FE certification is preferred.

Senior / Lead Engineer

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering; Electrical Engineering with a power systems emphasis preferred.
  • Typically 6–10+ years of relevant power engineering experience, including significant transmission planning experience.
  • Demonstrated experience independently performing or leading transmission planning studies.
  • Strong knowledge of power flow, contingency, voltage and stability analysis, transmission modeling, and system performance.
  • Experience with interconnection or system impact studies and applicable NERC/WECC requirements.
  • Experience providing technical guidance or mentoring engineers.
  • PE licensure is preferred.

Principal Engineer

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering; Electrical Engineering with a power systems emphasis preferred.
  • Typically 10+ years of progressively responsible transmission system planning experience.
  • Expert-level knowledge of transmission planning, system modeling, power flow, contingency, stability, reliability, and long-range planning.
  • Demonstrated leadership of complex or high-impact transmission planning initiatives.
  • Ability to serve as a technical authority and advise stakeholders on transmission system risks, alternatives, and long-term planning decisions.
  • Experience mentoring engineers and establishing technical direction or planning practices.
  • PE licensure is strongly preferred.

Technical Experience

Candidates should bring experience appropriate to their level in areas such as:

  • Transmission system planning and modeling
  • Power flow and contingency analysis
  • Transient and voltage stability
  • Generation and load interconnections
  • Long-range transmission planning
  • NERC Reliability Standards and WECC criteria
  • Transmission reliability and system expansion
  • Power system simulation software

Experience with PowerWorld or comparable transmission planning software is preferred.

Work Environment

This is a full-time position that may offer a hybrid work arrangement. Periodic onsite work and limited travel may be required for technical meetings, project coordination, planning activities, or site visits.

Equal Opportunity

The employer is committed to providing equal employment opportunities to qualified applicants and maintaining a workplace free from unlawful discrimination.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering; Electrical Engineering with a power systems emphasis preferred.
  • Entry-level through approximately 5 years of relevant power engineering experience. More experience would qualify for higher level roles.
  • Experience or academic background in power systems, transmission planning, power flow analysis, system modeling, or related areas.
  • Transmission planning or electric utility experience is preferred as experience level increases.
  • EIT/FE/PE certification is preferred.
