Experience with software packages such as ASPEN OneLiner is required. Prior knowledge of protection related to renewable generation interconnection and/or HVDC is preferred.

Responsibilities Include

Advanced knowledge of various protection relaying functions including line protection, transformer protection, breaker failure, cap bank protection, communication-based schemes, differential protection, etc.
Perform conceptual planning phase protection and control studies including protection philosophy, basis of design, and fault studies.
Perform P&C related studies such as protection coordination, PT/CT sizing, TCC curves, relay coordinations etc.
Familiarity with P&C related standards such as IEEE and NERC.
Familiarity with ASPEN OneLiner, PSS CAPE, or similar software packages.
Contribute to the delivery of projects, delivering on time and to budget.
Work closely with the team members across North America and globally.
