It supports electric utilities in evaluating EMF and RF considerations for existing and emerging technologies, worker and public exposure, engineering design, and stakeholder communication.\nThe EMF Engineer will conduct and support research involving electric and magnetic fields associated with transmission and distribution systems, substations, and emerging electric-power technologies. The successful candidate will apply their skills and knowledge to EMF modeling, measurements, technical assessments, and research projects that address utility and industry needs.\nThis individual will work independently on defined technical activities, collaborate with multidisciplinary subject matter experts, and interact with electric utilities and external technical organizations.\nKey Responsibilities and Requirements:\nWork independently and within a team environment on technical activities with limited supervision\nCoordinate technical activities with external contractors, consultants, universities, laboratories, and other research organizations.\nAssume responsibility for defined technical objectives and project tasks, including problems where established methods must be adapted creatively and imaginative thinking is required.\nMaintain familiarity with developments, research needs, and emerging issues in assigned technical areas.\nExecute tasks such as EMF calculations and modeling, field measurements, data analysis, laboratory experiments, equipment calibration, interpretation of results, and other activities to support project objectives as needed.\nAssist with characterization of EMF from traditional and emerging technologies such as HVDC, hybrid transmission lines, energy storage systems, solar/wind farms, EV charging systems, and novel power system assets and equipment.\nConduct technical literature searches and analyze information in support of research projects.\nSupports development, application, and member training for program tools, research products, and other resources.\nDevelop practical technical solutions to complex problems using sound engineering judgment, creativity, and input from related disciplines.\nPrepare technical reports, presentations, guidance documents, and other research deliverables.\nCommunicate technical strategies, methods, and results to utility professionals, subject matter experts, program members, and other stakeholders.\nBuild effective working relationships with utility advisors and national and international technical networks.\nSupport proposal development, member engagement, and identification of research or service opportunities.\nProvide technical guidance to junior staff and project team members, as appropriate.\nEssential Skills:\nBachelor's degree in electrical engineering, physics, or a related technical field.\nAt least 5 years of relevant professional experience in electric power engineering, EMF engineering, applied electromagnetics, high-voltage engineering, or a closely related field.\nWorking knowledge of electric power transmission or distribution systems, their major components, and/or operation.\nAbility and willingness to develop expertise in specialized technical areas, including EMF and RF assessment methods, electromagnetic shielding design, emerging power technologies, and applicable exposure guidelines.\nKnowledge of corona and field effects as they relate to EMF and RF sources is a plus\nProficiency in or interest in learning EMF/RF analysis tools and laboratory experimentation\nExperience applying engineering analysis to practical technical problems.\nAbility to independently plan and complete defined technical assignments.\nAbility to interpret technical data and communicate conclusions accurately.\nStrong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain complex technical information to both technical and nontechnical audiences.\nDemonstrated ability to collaborate with multidisciplinary teams and external organizations.\nDesirable Skills:\nGraduate degree in electrical engineering, physics, or a related field.\nAdvanced knowledge of electromagnetics (low frequency to RF)\nKnowledge of transmission-line design and construction techniques (e.g. HVAC, HVDC overhead and underground transmission), conductor configurations, phase arrangements, grounding, shielding, or other factors which influence the generation of electric and magnetic fields.\nExperience with EMF modeling using Matlab, Python, Comsol, Ansys, NEC, etc for HVAC, HVDC, hybrid AC/DC, or other high-voltage systems.\nHands-on experience conducting electric-field or magnetic-field measurements, including development of measurement plans and interpretation of results.\nKnowledge of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) considerations related to EMF and RF from transmission and distribution systems affecting implanted medical devices, sensitive equipment, imaging systems, or navigation and communication systems.\nFamiliarity with RF safety concepts, RF exposure assessment, or RF measurement and modeling methods.\nFamiliarity with occupational or public EMF exposure guidelines and standards.\nFamiliarity with the epidemiological history of EMF and impacts to human health\nExperience working with electric utilities, research organizations, universities, government agencies, equipment manufacturers, or engineering consulting firms.\nExperience preparing technical proposals, reports, conference papers, or presentations.\nThe salary range for this position is $115,000 USD to $130,000 USD annually.This salary range is an estimate, and the actual salary may vary based on various factors, including without limitation applicant's education, experience, skills, and abilities, as well as internal equity and alignment with market data.
