The role serves as an asset owner within Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) for distribution assets, working closely with Operations, Distribution Engineering, Distribution Planning, Capital Delivery, Reliability, and Regulatory Affairs to ensure asset risks, performance trends, asset condition, lifecycle requirements, and investment needs are understood and appropriately addressed through risk-informed decision making.

The position provides an opportunity for a developing or intermediate level engineer to build or expand expertise in asset management, risk assessment, reliability engineering, capital planning, and utility operations while contributing to the long-term stewardship of Nova Scotia Power's distribution infrastructure.

Assist in evaluating emerging technologies and industry trends and assessing applicability to Nova Scotia Power's distribution system.
Incorporate climate adaptation, wildfire mitigation, storm hardening, and resiliency considerations into overall asset strategies and investment plans as appropriate.

Asset Health, Risk & Reliability

Develop and maintain asset health, criticality, risk, and performance models for distribution assets.
Analyze inspection, maintenance, condition assessment, outage, and failure data to identify emerging risks and performance trends.
Support reliability investigations, asset failure reviews, and root cause analyses, ensuring lessons learned are incorporated into asset strategies and investment recommendations.
Monitor key performance indicators and asset health metrics to support risk-informed decision making.
Assist in identifying opportunities to improve reliability, reduce risk, and optimize lifecycle costs.
Capital Planning, Regulatory Support
Provide risk-based analysis and recommendations to support project justification, and prioritization of distribution asset investments.
Support the Distribution Capital team by ensuring proposed capital investments are aligned with asset health, feeder risk profiles, and enterprise risk management objectives.
Support the preparation of regulatory filings, investment justifications, and business case materials by providing asset risk, condition, and lifecycle management inputs.

Industry Engagement & Innovation

Participate in industry forums, working groups, and knowledge-sharing activities.
Monitor industry developments, emerging technologies, and best practices through organizations such as CEATI and EPRI.
Support adoption of innovative asset management approaches, data analytics tools, and reliability improvement practices.

These skills will make you successful:
