The leader sets technical direction and priorities, delivers hands-on engineering work, and builds a team sized to a growing fleet and an evolving regulatory landscape. The role partners with Development, Construction, Asset Management, Operations, and Electrical Regulatory Compliance to ensure plants are modeled, studied, and accepted correctly from commissioning through operation.\nWould consider a Senior Manager, depending on experience.\nWhat You'll Be Doing\nTeam leadership and organization\nLead, develop, and mentor the PSE team, including recruiting, onboarding, work assignment, performance management, and succession planning.\nForecast workload and capacity against fleet growth, acquisitions, repowers, and new NERC obligations. Lead the annual PSE workload and staffing reassessment, including hiring triggers and sequencing.\nManage contractor and third-party engineering resources, including scope, quality, cost, and deliverable acceptance.\nTechnical delivery and quality\nProvide technical leadership for dynamic modeling and EMT studies supporting MOD-025, MOD-026, MOD-032, PRC-024/PRC-029, and related standards. Personally contribute to complex studies and technical reviews.\nDirect plant trip and event analysis, root cause analysis, controls and protection review, and reliability and performance improvement.\nOversee ETAP studies (short-circuit, protection coordination, load flow) and arc-flash analysis after equipment, settings, collection-system, repower, or acquisition changes.\nDirect technical investigations supporting regional entity requests for information (e.g., WECC, ERCOT), including PRC-028 and PRC-030 assessments.\nAssess new and revised NERC standards, particularly the shift of operational standards toward inverter-based resources (IBRs), and lead the resulting model, settings, and equipment changes across the fleet.\nNew construction, acquisitions, and commissioning\nOwn PSE’s approach to new-construction modeling and studies, and recommend, project by project, whether work is performed in-house, direct-contracted to a third party, or split.\nProvide technical input to EPC contract language and scope definition so that Clearway can direct-contract modeling and study deliverables for eligible projects.\nPlan PSE field presence at commissioning, technical acceptance, and acquisition diligence and closeout. Define acceptance criteria and hold points, and ensure discrepancies between field configuration, models, settings, and test results are tracked to closure.\nCross-functional partnership\nServe as technical liaison to Electrical Regulatory Compliance and the NERC Compliance Engineers, who own standards administration and official RFI coordination. Maintain clear ownership boundaries so PSE focuses on technical analysis, modeling, and operational improvement.\nPartner with Development, Construction, and Asset Management on interconnection requirements, study coordination, and technically complex projects.\nPrepare budgets, business cases, and technical recommendations for leadership.\nQualifications\nWhat You'll Bring\nBachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering (Power Systems emphasis). \n7+ years of power systems engineering experience, including utility-scale generation or transmission interconnection, with 3+ years leading technical teams or projects.\nHands-on experience with positive-sequence dynamic modeling and EMT modeling of IBRs (e.g., PSS/E, PSCAD, or equivalent).\nWorking knowledge of NERC Reliability Standards for generator owners, including MOD, PRC, and VAR standards.\nExperience with protection and short-circuit/coordination tools (e.g., ETAP) and arc-flash analysis.\nDemonstrated ability to manage vendors and consultants and hold deliverables to a quality standard.\nStrong written and verbal communication, including explaining technical findings to non-technical leaders.\nWhat Would Be Nice\nMaster's degree in Electrical Engineering is preferred.\nExperience with wind, solar, and BESS plants; plant controllers; and SEL or similar relay and settings platforms.\nExperience supporting commissioning, acquisition diligence, or regional entity audits and RFIs.\nExperience negotiating technical scope in EPC or interconnection agreements.\nNo visa sponsorship or any kind of sponsorship for employment authorization is available for this role, now or in the future.\n#LI-Hybrid\nThe pay rate for the successful candidate will depend on geographic location, skills, relevant and demonstrated experience, education, training and certifications, and other factors permitted by law.
