Electrical Design Microgrid Solution Engineer

• Design and validate data-center-grade and C&I microgrid power architectures from concept through commissioning.
• Ensure system performance under fast load transients, partial equipment failures, and islanded operation.
• Own power system studies supporting interconnection, reliability, and regulatory compliance.
• Define and enforce electrical design standards for scalable, repeatable microgrid deployments.
• Support integration of BESS, generation assets, UPS, and utility interfaces into cohesive system architectures.
• Reduce deployment and operational risk through early technical rigor, validation, and design reviews.
• Serve as a technical counterpart to customers, utilities, and internal stakeholders.

Develop and review:

• System one-line diagrams and MV/LV power distribution architectures
• Redundancy and topology concepts (N, N+1, 2N, 2N+1)
• Equipment layout and electrical room planning

Define system operating modes including:

• Grid-connected, islanded, and transition states
• Black start and load restoration strategies
• Emergency and degraded-mode operation

Coordinate integration of:

• Utility feeds and point-of-interconnection requirements
• BESS and inverter-based resources
• Diesel or gas generation
• UPS and rack-level power systems
• Required Technical Skills

Perform and review studies including:

• Load flow and voltage regulation
• Short-circuit and equipment duty
• Transient and dynamic performance (in coordination with system design/stability engineers)
• Protection coordination and arc flash analysis

Analyze system response to:

• Fast load ramps (e.g., AI workload pulsations)
• Loss of major equipment or feeders
• Mode transitions between grid-connected and islanded operation
• Ensure study assumptions align with control strategies, equipment ratings, and customer reliability requirements.
• Coordinate power interfaces between utility POI, MV distribution, and UPS/downstream load filtering.
• Understand and leverage load filtering provided by UPS systems and rack-level power electronics; define clear boundaries between load-side dynamics and grid-facing systems.

Support utility interconnection processes by:

• Preparing technical study inputs and reviewing interconnection study results
• Ensuring IEEE 1547, utility, and regional grid code compliance
• Coordinating system settings and documentation required for approval
• Act as a technical interface during utility reviews and customer design discussions.
• Develop and maintain design assumptions, calculation records, engineering reports, and technical summaries.
