Title: Electromagnetic Transient (EMT) Studies Engineer
Location: Remote US
Ready to make a difference?
We are a client-focused engineering group reimagining how electric utilities and energy developers solve complex grid challenges. We’re seeking a passionate, innovative power systems engineer with deep expertise in electromagnetic transient (EMT) studies to help our clients tackle emerging transmission issues and integrate new power resources. In this role, you will apply your skills to a broad range of projects – from analyzing transient events in transmission networks (e.g. capacitor switching surges or transformer energization) to studying interactions in generation systems (e.g. sub-synchronous resonance in turbine-generators or control tuning for inverter-based resources).
Join us in delivering high-quality solutions across both conventional and renewable energy projects as we navigate the rapidly evolving electric power landscape.
Why you’ll love working here:
The Ideal Candidate
You are a highly motivated electrical engineer who takes pride in delivering top-notch work. You’re proactive and self-sufficient, able to tackle complex simulations autonomously while meeting deadlines. You work well remotely, staying productive without close supervision. You continually expand your knowledge and seek ways to improve processes for greater quality and efficiency. A true team player, you communicate effectively and prioritize team goals. You’re comfortable in a client-facing role, eager to take on new responsibilities, and excited to learn new skills whenever needed.
What you will be doing:
As an EMT Studies Engineer, you will lead and support a wide range of electromagnetic transient studies for utility, developer, and ISO clients. Your work will span both generation and transmission systems, including conventional and renewable energy projects, substations, and high-voltage transmission networks. You’ll apply advanced simulation tools to analyze complex transient interactions and contribute to broader transmission planning efforts.
