    Preferred

  • EIT certification or progress toward PE licensure.
  • Experience with SEL RTAC or other automation platforms.
  • Familiarity with microgrids, inverter-based resources, battery storage, and plant controls.
  • Knowledge of IEEE, IEC, NERC, or utility interconnection standards.
  • Exposure to relay testing, commissioning, FAT/SAT, or field support activities.

    What We’re Looking For

  • Strong interest in power system controls and microgrid technologies.
  • Self-starter who takes ownership of assignments.
  • Ability to work independently in a remote environment.
