Key Responsibilities

- Develop, validate, and maintain detailed PSCAD models for utility-scale solar, battery energy storage systems (BESS), and hybrid power plants.
- Perform EMT studies to evaluate system performance under faults, switching events, control interactions, harmonic conditions, transient overvoltages, and other dynamic disturbances.
- Support generator interconnection and transmission planning activities through technical analysis associated with system impact studies, facilities studies,



and grid compliance assessments using PSCAD, PSS®E, TARA, PowerWorld, and related tools.
- Analyze inverter-based resource performance, including fault ride-through capability, voltage and frequency response, control stability, and plant-level interactions.
- Coordinate with OEMs, consultants, utilities, and internal stakeholders to obtain, review, parameterize, validate, and troubleshoot vendor-supplied models.
- Compare and reconcile PSCAD results with RMS simulation platforms such as PSS®E to support broader transmission and interconnection studies.
- Identify technical risks, communicate findings clearly, and recommend mitigation strategies that improve project bankability, constructability, reliability, and grid performance.
- Prepare technical reports, study documentation, presentations, and engineering memoranda for internal and external stakeholders.
- Contribute to internal modeling standards, quality assurance processes, study methodologies, and automation initiatives that improve efficiency and consistency.
- Collaborate across development, transmission, engineering, and project delivery teams to support BrightNight's growing project portfolio and operating fleet.
