Power Delivery Lead (MV Distribution)

Required

• The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.
• 10+ years of experience in medium-voltage power distribution design, including network studies, protection coordination, and MV switchgear and substation design.
• You've personally built power system models of an MV network and produced the load flow, short circuit and cable sizing results that went into issued-for-construction drawings.
• You've built electromagnetic transient (EMT) models of switching, energization or islanded events, such as transformer inrush, ferroresonance or inverter-dominated fault response, and changed a design because of what they showed.
• You've set the protection philosophy and relay settings for a system with limited or variable fault current, and you can walk through the coordination that proved it.
• You've designed MV distribution down to the hardware, including metal-clad switchgear, transformers, cable and duct bank ampacity, and grounding, and defended those choices against NEC, NFPA 70E and IEEE requirements with engineers of record and AHJs.
• You've designed an MV substation or bus tie scheme that let new capacity energize next to live load, and written the switching sequence the operators followed.
• You've turned a one-off design into a standard that other engineers applied across multiple projects, and written its design basis clearly enough that they could use it without calling you.
• You're comfortable with regular travel: expect 25% or more, depending on business needs.
• Most of our engineering team, stakeholders, and work are based in Austin, TX, and we value working in person. We have a strong preference for Austin and run a hybrid model, but we're open to other locations for the right role and candidate.
• Bonus: Transmission-side study and protection work, including interconnection and EMT studies. Grid-forming and islanded systems. A Professional Engineer licence.
• We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
