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 electrical engineering for power generation, microgrids, or utility-scale storage, including generator interconnection, power system studies, and plant commissioning.
You've engineered electrical systems for power generation, microgrids, or utility-scale storage.
You've designed generator interconnections and the studies behind them.
You understand islanded operation and what it does to protection and stability.
You've integrated inverter-based resources with rotating machines.
You've taken plant designs through commissioning.
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: Microgrid controls. Grid codes and interconnection standards. PSCAD or PSSE. BESS electrical design.
