Build the Models That Power the Modern Grid

If you have deep experience in electric distribution engineering, GIS modeling, or ADMS configuration and you want to work on some of the most technically complex and consequential projects in utility technology, we want to meet you.

Roles and Responsibilities

We're seeking a Grid Modernization Specialist, Network Model Engineer to serve as a senior technical expert on ADMS implementations across North America. This role is built for someone who understands the network model as the foundation everything else depends on: outage management, FLISR, Volt/VAR optimization, power flow, DER integration, and beyond. When the model is wrong, the system fails. You're the person who makes sure it doesn't.

In this role, you will lead the design, development, validation, and governance of the electrical network model supporting ADMS deployments for utility clients. You'll work closely with utility GIS teams, distribution engineers, control room operations, IT, and ADMS vendors to ensure the model accurately reflects real-world network conditions, from substation impedance definitions and three-phase phasing, to SCADA telemetry mapping and GIS to ADMS transformation logic. You'll own model quality across the full project lifecycle, from initial build through FAT, SAT, SIT, and UAT, all the way to cutover and go-live.

Beyond the technical delivery, you'll help shape how utilities think about network model governance for the long term, establishing data standards, defining model maintenance workflows between GIS, SAP, and Aspen, contributing to control room SOPs, and providing thought leadership within our Grid Modernization practice on digital twin capabilities and emerging modeling requirements.

Key responsibilities include leading ADMS network model development and configuration, defining GIS to ADMS mapping rules and transformation logic, establishing data quality and validation processes, executing model test cases across all testing phases, troubleshooting model issues impacting system performance, supporting operational change management and staff training, and driving continuous improvement in model accuracy and governance.

Skills And Experience

The ideal candidate brings 5 years of experience in electric distribution engineering, GIS modeling, or ADMS configuration, along with direct platform experience on systems such as Schneider Electric, GE, Siemens, OSI, or ABB. You should have strong working knowledge of distribution system topology, protection schemes, three-phase power flow fundamentals, switching operations, and SCADA telemetry integration. Experience with Esri Utility Network or other utility GIS platforms is highly valued, as is familiarity with CIM, MultiSpeak, and IEC data standards. Strong analytical and communication skills are essential, as you'll regularly translate complex modeling concepts for engineering, operations, and executive audiences alike.

This is a rare opportunity to apply deep technical expertise across multiple utilities simultaneously, accelerating grid modernization programs and building the model foundation that advanced grid operations depend on.
