The ideal candidate will be a senior transmission, infrastructure or energy development professional with 12 to 15 years of experience in U.S. transmission, high-voltage infrastructure, renewable or storage development, EPC delivery, investment analysis or infrastructure transactions. An engineering degree is required.
The candidate should bring senior-level experience in transmission planning, power flow analysis, generator interconnection, affected-system studies, congestion and curtailment assessment, and grid constraint evaluation across U.S. ISO/RTO and utility markets, including ERCOT, PJM, MISO, SPP, CAISO, NYISO, ISO-NE, WECC, SERC and utility-service territories.
Technical experience should include high-voltage line and substation design review, protection and control interfaces, route alternatives, constructability, commissioning and operational readiness. Commercial experience should include investment estimates, project budgets, EPC pricing, cost benchmarking, contingencies, owner’s costs, schedule risk, lifecycle economics, revenue forecasts, cost-of-service models, merchant exposure, congestion value, basis risk, ancillary services and tax-credit-sensitive renewable or storage economics.
The role requires hands-on experience with U.S. infrastructure development and construction, including permitting, environmental studies, rights-of-way, land acquisition, utility coordination, procurement, EPC contracting and change-order management. Experience with interconnection agreements, transmission service agreements, O&M arrangements, owner’s engineer scopes, joint development agreements, acquisitions and utility coordination documentation is also expected.
