What this job asks for AI summary

A power systems engineering role focused on transmission planning studies, including steady-state, short circuit, and dynamic stability analysis. Day-to-day work involves running simulations in tools such as PSS/E, PSCAD, and Aspen, conducting generator interconnection studies, verifying renewable and storage resources meet grid requirements, and producing technical reports. Suits an electrical engineer with a few years of power systems impact study experience.

Mid level · 2+ years · Remote · Bachelor's required

Must have (1)
PSS/E, PSCAD, Aspen or TARA
Nice to have (1)
Python

“or” means any one of them counts — you don't need all of them.

We read this from the posting text with AI. Skim the description below before ruling yourself out.

Why we read it this way (7)

This role is power systems engineering (transmission planning, interconnection studies, dynamic stability) rather than a conventional software/IT occupation. 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is used as the closest available code given the heavy simulation-software and modeling focus; 15-1211 (Computer Systems Analysts) is the runner-up. Neither is a perfect fit — the role is fundamentally an electrical/power-systems engineering position.

The four power-systems software tools (PSS/E, PSCAD, Aspen, TARA) are listed together in the required qualifications section as a group ('such as'), indicating the candidate needs experience with power systems software of this type. They are listed as alternatives to each other in the schema to reflect the 'such as' framing, but collectively represent a hard gate on domain-specific simulation tooling.

Python automation/programming is explicitly marked 'preferred' in the qualifications section.

The posting states 'remote US or Canada'; per caller instruction, remote=true is set and no metro is inferred. The US-based flag of true is retained as the role is open to US workers.

Experience range is stated as '2-4+ years'; the overall years minimum is set to 2 (the lower bound).

No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
