Job description

At Associated Electric Cooperative, we're committed to providing reliable energy to the communities we serve with passion and precision. We're a tight-knit team dedicated to keeping the lights on and the energy flowing smoothly across our expansive network!
From technical to operational to professional disciplines, our team brings a wide variety of skills, talents, and expertise to the table. We believe in both dedicating ourselves to excellence and investing in your growth.
As a Transmission Planning Engineer, you will help shape the reliability and future performance of the electric transmission system through power system modeling, transmission planning studies, and technical analysis. In this role, you will support Associated Electric Cooperative's mission by building accurate models, analyzing system needs, and developing practical solutions that keep power moving safely and reliably. Tiny detail, massive impact, because electricity does not plan itself.
What You'll Do
  • Conduct load flow, short circuit, and stability studies to evaluate transmission system performance and identify solutions.
  • Build and maintain transmission system models through regional model-building groups and in-house automation tools.
  • Maintain accurate transmission planning databases by updating, validating, and communicating equipment data.
  • Prepare clear technical reports, compliance documents, study summaries, and meeting notes.
  • Collaborate with G&T partners, internal teams, and external organizations to support coordinated transmission planning.
  • Contribute to transmission planning processes that support reliability, compliance, and long-term system needs.

What You'll Need
  • Bachelor of Science in electrical engineering or equivalent experience
  • Typically 0 to 3 years of power industry experience for entry-level placement.
  • Basic understanding of transmission planning, reliability standards, substation design, transmission line design, and protective relaying.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Acute attention to detail and the ability to review technical information for accuracy.
  • Ability to work collaboratively in a professional office environment with occasional travel for meetings or cooperative-related work.

Preferred
  • Power systems emphasis within an electrical engineering degree.
  • Engineer in Training certification.
  • Experience or coursework related to power system analysis, transmission planning, or reliability standards.
  • Python experience
  • AI experience
  • EMT analysis

What Associated provides:
  • We are committed to rewarding talent with top pay. Your efforts will be recognized with a total compensation package that reflects your experience and contributions.
  • Plan for your future with confidence! We offer a robust 401(k) program with a generous employer match to help you build the financial future you deserve.
  • We know how important work-life integration is. Recharge with PTO and enjoy paid holidays, ensuring you have time to unwind and pursue your passions outside of work.
  • Your health matters to us! Stay covered beginning on your first day of employment with our premier healthcare plan that includes medical, dental, and vision coverage for you and your family.

At Associated Electric Cooperative, all of our 700+ employees across MO/AR/OK territory play a crucial role in powering our mission! Whether you're an experienced professional or just starting your career, you'll find endless opportunities for career development here. Join us in an environment where your contribution is valued, and your career can thrive as we work together to keep the lights on!
