Power system studies engineer
Confirmed on the employer's own hiring board on Oct 20, 2026. First seen by Alion on Oct 12, 2026.
Roles & Responsibilities -
Conduct steady-state and transient power system studies, including RMS and EMT modeling.
Perform studies such as:
Load flow and short circuit analysis
Protection coordination (relay coordination)
Arc flash and grounding studies
Power quality analysis (harmonics, flicker)
Grid compliance and grid integration studies
Contingency and insulation coordination studies
Stability studies (LVRT, HVRT for renewable plants)
Cable ampacity and reactive power studies
Proficiently model systems using ETAP and DIgSILENT PowerFactory. Experience with PSSE, EMTP, and PSCAD is mandatory
Develop models for Solar PV, Wind Turbines, and BESS systems.
Prepare detailed technical reports, presentations, and simulation results.
