Remote from US
Are you a Transmission or Power Systems Engineer looking to work on large-scale, high-impact projects with real career progression and long-term growth?
On offer is a technically challenging role where you’ll lead critical planning studies, influence major infrastructure decisions, and gain exposure to multi-state projects with strong progression opportunities.
This is an opportunity to join a well-backed, fast-growing organisation with a reputation for hiring top talent and empowering engineers to take ownership. You’ll be working alongside experienced industry leaders in a collaborative, forward-thinking environment where your ideas genuinely shape outcomes.
In this role, you’ll play a key part in early-stage project development, giving you far more visibility and influence than a typical planning position. You’ll be involved in everything from system studies through to strategic decision-making, offering a clear pathway to senior or leadership roles.
The Role
- Carry out power flow, contingency (N-1), and system planning studies on major transmission projects
- Support interconnection studies and influence technical decision-making
- Work on long-term planning strategies and future grid scenarios
- Collaborate with utilities, ISOs/RTOs, and senior stakeholders
- Clear progression into senior/lead positions as the team grows
The Candidate
- Experience in transmission planning, interconnection, or power systems analysis
- Familiar with tools such as PSS®E, PSLF, PowerWorld, or similar
- Degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
