• Strong background in real-time operational applications of PMU data, including oscillation detection, disturbance identification, event analysis, and dynamic system behavior monitoring.

• Experience developing operational requirements, operator use cases, alarming thresholds, and control-room visualization concepts.

• Proficiency with PMU data quality assessment, IEEE C37.118 protocols, PDC configuration, and synchrophasor streaming performance requirements.

• Deep understanding of real-time grid phenomena such as oscillations, inertia, damping, and voltage or frequency excursions.

• Ability to translate technical PMU analytics into clear operator guidance, procedures, and training materials.

• Working knowledge of NERC IBR stability standards, model performance expectations, and emerging Large Load Reliability guidelines relevant to operation
