What does a remote systems engineer do?

The job of a remote systems engineer is to develop, test, and maintain a computer network system for a company. Your duties include implementing updates, handling technical issues (including connectivity issues and VPN setup), performing system administration tasks, documenting changes, preparing reports, and developing new infrastructure as needed. Your responsibilities as a remote systems engineer are to ensure the software system and network connectivity meet the needs of the business environment and provide user support. This is a work from home position that involves coordinating with IT and management.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a remote systems engineer, and why are they important?

A Remote Systems Engineer is an IT professional who designs, implements, manages, and maintains computer systems and networks for organizations while working from a remote location. They ensure that systems are reliable, secure, and perform optimally, often troubleshooting issues and deploying updates without being physically present onsite. Remote Systems Engineers typically use remote access tools to monitor systems, collaborate with teams, and provide technical support. Their work is essential for companies with distributed workforces or cloud-based infrastructure.

How does a remote systems engineer typically collaborate with on-site IT teams and other departments?

As a Remote Systems Engineer, you will frequently coordinate with on-site IT staff and cross-functional teams through virtual meetings, project management tools, and shared documentation. Effective communication and clear documentation are crucial, as you may not be physically present to troubleshoot or implement solutions. You can expect to rely heavily on remote access tools and cloud-based platforms to monitor, maintain, and update systems. Building strong relationships with team members and setting clear expectations helps ensure seamless collaboration and project success, even from a distance.

Job description

Position Summary:
The Power Systems and Controls Engineer will serve as a key technical leader in power system modeling, simulation, and controls for renewable generation, energy storage, and microgrid applications across transmission, distribution, and behind-the-meter systems. This role requires deep expertise in dynamic modeling, EMT simulation, plant and microgrid controls, and hardware-in-the-loop validation for utility-scale and hybrid energy systems.
Job Description
The Engineer will be the primary driver of power system modeling, simulation, and controls analysis for PV, wind, BESS, hybrid plants, and microgrids using tools such as PSLF, PSS®E, PSCAD, RTDS, RT-LAB, and related platforms. This includes developing advanced high-fidelity models for renewable plants, inverters, plant controllers, energy management systems (EMS), microgrid controllers, and grid networks to support load flow, dynamic, transient, and EMTP studies, including MOD compliance and interconnection requirements.
The Engineer will also support the design, validation, and performance assessment of plant-level and microgrid-level control strategies for grid-connected and islanded systems. This includes evaluating control behavior during mode transitions, black start, dispatch optimization, grid-forming/grid-following operation, and resiliency scenarios.
The Engineer will be expected to manage, develop, champion, and enforce work processes, documentation, procedures, guidelines, schedules, priorities, and technical specifications for projects within the assigned region. The Engineer must act as an advocate for continuous improvement and operational excellence for controls, modeling, simulation, and related systems and equipment. This position is remote.
Key Responsibilities
  • Lead the power system modeling and simulation function for the Operational Technologies team.
  • Build, manage, and maintain plant models in PSS®E, PSLF, PSCAD, RTDS, RT-LAB, and similar tools for PV, BESS, wind, and hybrid plants, including plant control systems.
  • Develop and validate control models for PPC, EMS, BESS controls, inverter-based resources, and microgrid controllers for both grid-connected and islanded operation.
  • Support the design and simulation of microgrid control strategies, including dispatch logic, mode transitions, load sharing, spinning reserve management, black start, and coordination of solar, storage, generator, and utility interconnection assets.
  • Perform dynamic, transient, EMT, and stability studies for renewable plants, storage systems, and microgrids.
  • Lead and represent the Operational Technologies group on all matters related to power systems, controls, and microgrid performance.
  • Support leadership in responding to DOE/SETO FOAs and other power systems research initiatives and proposals.
  • Support hardware-in-the-loop and controller-in-the-loop testing for protection, plant control, EMS, and microgrid control systems.
  • Develop technical documentation, testing procedures, validation methods, and study reports for internal and external stakeholders.
  • Lead continuous improvement and lessons-learned programs related to modeling, controls, and system performance.
  • Perform other duties as required by management.

Requirements
Requirements
  • Master's degree with 3-5 years of relevant experience, or PhD in Electrical Engineering. Candidates with strong expertise in power systems modeling, inverter-based resource controls, and microgrid controls are strongly preferred.
  • Strong understanding of renewable generation, energy storage systems, and hybrid/microgrid system architectures.
  • Experience with modeling, simulation, and testing of renewable energy resources and control systems.
  • Experience with microgrid controller design, validation, or operation, including islanding, resynchronization, dispatch optimization, and coordinated control of DERs.
  • Hardware-in-the-loop testing and validation of protection and control systems using real-time digital simulators.
  • Interconnection impact studies for renewable power plants and hybrid systems.
  • Power quality studies for utilities and wind/solar/storage plants, including voltage/current unbalance, flicker, voltage sag, and harmonics.
  • Fault analysis and transient overvoltage studies, including capacitor and reactor switching, faults and clearing, line energization, and lightning.
  • Black start studies, including transformer energization and synchronization.
  • Experience with transformer saturation and inrush, load flow and dynamic studies, short-circuit analysis, and subsynchronous control interaction (SSCI).
  • Ability to communicate effectively with team members, customers, research partners, and business stakeholders.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead technical initiatives and work cross-functionally in a fast-paced environment.
  • Must have authorization to work in the United States.
  • Travel up to 10%.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with microgrid applications for data centers, remote power systems, military installations, or utility resiliency projects.
  • Familiarity with grid-forming inverters, DERMS/EMS, generator controls, and plant-level SCADA integration.
  • Experience with controller validation using HIL/CIL platforms such as OPAL-RT, RTDS, or Typhoon HIL.
  • Knowledge of NERC, WECC, IEEE, and utility interconnection requirements applicable to inverter-based resources and microgrids.
