Senior Power System Study Engineer conducting advanced grounding, lightning, and induction studies for utility and renewable energy projects. Collaborating with multidisciplinary teams and ensuring safety compliance throughout engineering processes.
Responsibilities
Conduct grounding system design and analysis including grid resistance, touch/step voltage, and fault current distribution
Perform lightning protection studies, surge analysis, and shielding assessments
Execute induction studies for overhead lines and pipelines to evaluate AC interference and mitigation strategies
Model and analyze bus configurations for short-circuit, thermal, and electromagnetic performance
Utilize software tools such as CDEGS, WinIGS, and optionally PSCAD or EMTP to simulate and analyze power system phenomena
Generate detailed technical reports, calculations, and drawings
Coordinate with project managers, utilities, and clients to ensure compliance with industry standards (e.g., IEEE 80, IEEE 665, NESC, NEC)
Support multidisciplinary teams in substation, transmission, and industrial facility design
Requirements
Master’s degree in Power Systems or Electromagnetics
Proficiency in CDEGS (certification is an asset)
3+ years of experience in power system studies with focus on grounding, lightning, and induction
Experience with WinIGS required; familiarity with PSCAD, ETAP, or PSS/E is a plus
Familiarity with HVDC, FACTS, or renewable integration studies is a plus
Benefits
Competitive compensation
Employee recognition
Flexible benefits tailored to health, wellbeing, financial and lifestyle needs
