Original job description

The Alberta Electric System Operator (AESO) is responsible for the safe, reliable, and economic planning and operation of the Alberta Interconnected Electric System. We provide open and non-discriminatory access to Alberta’s interconnected power grid and also facilitate Alberta’s competitive wholesale electricity market. The AESO strives to foster an inclusive, diverse and equitable workplace where people feel respected and welcomed for who they are, together we deliver high performance and innovative results.

Job Description

The AESO is the sole provider of system access service on Alberta's transmission system, and the Customer Grid Access team plays a critical role in fulfilling this mandate. Through the AESO's Connection Process, the Customer Access Studies (CAS) team performs and reviews project interconnection engineering studies that support the reliable integration of new generation, load, and transmission-connected projects into Alberta's power system.

Reporting to the Manager, Customer Access Studies, the Lead Engineer plays a key role in delivering Customer Access Studies and engineering assessments for projects within an assigned load integration portfolio or cluster. As the technical lead for your assigned area, you will develop engineering solutions to complex project challenges, provide technical leadership and decision-making support, and help customers successfully navigate the interconnection process.

In this role, you will collaborate with stakeholders across forecasting, system planning, system operations engineering, regulatory, legal, and tariff teams, as well as with Transmission Facility Owners, Distribution Facility Owners, generator developers, large load customers, and consultants. You will also contribute to the growth and success of the team through mentoring, training, knowledge sharing, and the promotion of engineering best practices, while staying current with industry trends and emerging technologies.

Represent AESO in regulatory proceedings; act as CAS Manager delegate or provide backfill for Regional Leads, and provide updates on project status, risks, and issues.

Support development of engineering standards, methodologies, and practices; prepare, review, and approve Engineering Study Scope documents.

Conduct and review power flow, stability, and short-circuit studies using PSS/E; evaluate connection options; review connection documentation and Distribution Deficiency Reports; identify system constraints and coordinate mitigation solutions.

Coordinate with internal teams on forecasts, economic analysis, and system models; prepare Engineering Connection Assessments and Connection Proposals.

Participate in stakeholder meetings, resolve technical issues, maintain project documentation, and represent AESO in external forums and industry committees.
