Commission Smart Grid Security Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Role purpose

Lead or review utility, transmission, distribution, cross-border power, grid-modernization, smart-grid, and storage assessments that convert system constraints into feasible, financeable implementation pathways.

Representative problems this role must solve

A utility faces losses, reliability, automation, cybersecurity, integration, regulatory, workforce, or institutional constraints.

A battery, pumped-hydro, microgrid, or island-storage concept must reconcile sizing, dispatch, degradation, tariff, procurement, logistics, lifecycle cost, resilience, and O&M.

A cross-border interconnector requires aligned utilities, regulators, dispatch rules, benefit allocation, financing, and geopolitical interfaces.

Responsibilities

Diagnose system needs using demand, reliability, loss, generation, network, operating, regulatory, and institutional evidence.

Evaluate alternatives, system models, sizing/dispatch, lifecycle cost, resilience, operating model, procurement, cybersecurity, implementation sequence, and capacity-building needs.

Define TOR tasks, data requirements, performance measures, schedule, budget inputs, acceptance tests, and risk/recovery branches.

Integrate project finance, climate/resilience, country regulation, suppliers, safeguards, and stakeholder requirements.

Independently challenge models, assumptions, vendor claims, tariff/off-take logic, and implementation readiness.

Minimum evidence-based qualifications

Senior utility, power-system planning, transmission/distribution, grid-modernization, storage, microgrid, interconnection, or system-operations experience.

Evidence using or reviewing power-flow, production-cost, dispatch, reliability, storage, tariff, or lifecycle-cost analysis.

Emerging-market, island-grid, or cross-border system experience strongly preferred.

Experience translating diagnostic findings into implementable scopes, procurement strategies, roadmaps, or investment programs.

U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident, with written attestation required before proposal inclusion.

Demonstrated senior/expert judgment supported by specific project, analysis, decision-product, or implementation evidence—not keyword familiarity alone.

Ability to produce concise, defensible written analysis in English and work across technical, commercial, financial, safeguards, institutional, and implementation interfaces.

Ability to become available for potential Indo-Pacific travel within 20 calendar days after Axyde's written mobilization notice following contract award, subject to assignment needs and Government direction.

Willingness to disclose availability, employment/contract restrictions, confidentiality obligations, conflicts, noncompetes, country/customer limitations, and relevant intellectual-property constraints.

Evidence to submit

Current résumé or CV with dates, employer/client, country, project stage, personal role, methods used, decision product, and outcome for the most relevant assignments.

Two to four representative projects demonstrating the required expert judgment and decision-grade products.

Countries/regions worked, languages used professionally, travel limitations, and current location.

Licenses, registrations, clearances, certifications, publications, or standards experience when relevant to the role.

Written permission for Axyde to use and evidence-preservingly reformat the résumé for solicitation 1131PL26R0056, subject to final résumé review if requested.
