The System Design Microgrid Solution Engineer is responsible for architecting, modeling, and validating electrical system designs to ensure the performance, stability, and regulatory compliance of utility-scale and commercial/industrial microgrid and data center power systems. This role drives the analytical foundation for project development, detailed engineering, and grid interconnection by providing deep insight into system behavior across steady-state, dynamic, and transient operating conditions.

The position serves as a technical bridge between system architecture, control design, and grid requirements — ensuring designs are technically sound, standards-compliant, and deployment-ready for mission-critical applications.

Main Accountabilities

• Architect and maintain accurate system-level electrical models for microgrids, data center power plants, and distributed energy systems.
• Execute grid interconnection, performance, and compliance studies to support regulatory, utility, and customer requirements.
• Assess and validate system behavior under normal, transient, fault, and degraded operating conditions.
• Provide analytical input to system architecture, control strategy, equipment sizing, and protection philosophy decisions.
• Ensure study methods, assumptions, and results are technically defensible, traceable, and aligned with project deliverables.
• Support internal design reviews and external stakeholder engagements (utilities, ISOs, consultants, customers).

Key Activities and Responsibilities

Develop electrical system models including:

• Generation, BESS, inverter-based resources, and solid-state transformers (SST)
• Loads, transformers, protection devices, and switching equipment
• Utility grid representations and point-of-interconnection models

Ensure alignment between study models and:

• Control design assumptions and tuning parameters
• Equipment ratings, datasheets, and settings
• One-line diagrams, protection philosophies, and operating procedures

Perform and support studies including:

• 3 – 6 Years of relevant experience in
• Load flow and voltage regulation analysis
• Short-circuit and fault duty analysis
• Dynamic and transient stability studies
• Frequency response and inertia analysis
• Harmonics and power quality studies
• Islanding, black-start, and ride-through performance
• Arc flash hazard analysis

Support grid interconnection requests and processes. Perform studies aligned with standards and grid codes such as:

• IEEE 1547 / 1547.1
• Utility-specific interconnection requirements
• Relevant IEC or regional grid codes

• Prepare technical documentation and study reports for utility submission, internal design validation, and customer/third-party review.
• Strong fundamentals in power system analysis, electrical machines, inverter-based resources, and dynamic/steady-state system behavior.
• Hands-on experience with industry power system simulation tools.
• Ability to interpret electrical one-line diagrams, control and protection philosophies, and equipment datasheets.

Solid understanding of utility-connected and islanded power system operating modes

• Systems thinker – able to balance control performance, hardware limits, grid requirements, and operational constraints.
• Structured problem solver – approaches complex technical problems methodically and transparently.
• Technical communicator – can clearly explain system design concepts to non-specialist audiences, customers, and leadership.
• Collaborative mindset – works effectively across disciplines and organizational boundaries.
• Ownership & accountability – takes responsibility for technical outcomes from concept through deployment.
• Adaptability – comfortable working in evolving architectures and handling ambiguous requirements.
• Attention to detail – maintains rigor in documentation, testing, and validation.

• • Experience with microgrid controllers, EMS, or plant-level supervisory controls.
  • Exposure to utility interconnection processes and grid code compliance.
