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.
