About This Job


About the Company

MWResource supplies our customers in the utility electric power industry with the resources they need to manage some of their most complex systems. We work and partner with leaders in the industry, and because the skill and experience of our resources are in high demand to our top tier clients across North America


About the Role

The Modeling Engineer Contractor position aides those supporting the real-time EMS system model development and maintenance using the Siemens Information Model Management (IMM) tool. The Engineer will participate in the coordination of the EMS database update and single line display building process to insure a coherent system model providing accurate modeling of real-time power system conditions using the Common Information Model (CIM). Other responsibilities include system database expansion for support of new and existing members, interfacing with Operations, Planning, and Markets staff to incorporate requested application, display, and model changes, and tuning of the State Estimator during the model update process. The engineer will also test and perform maintenance to the EMS Transmission Network Applications (TNA) suite of tools.

Sometimes the contractor may be asked to create training materials for use by internal staff on processes and procedures related to the model update process and the support of TNA. The candidate should have a proven ability to learn rapidly through a combination of mentorship and self-guided discovery, and the willingness to work in a critical real-time environment. Modeling timelines are very rigid and getting the work done can require additional effort as deadlines approach, however we do our best to minimize the impact.

The position is geographically based around our campus in Audubon, Pennsylvania, and is a hybrid role. The initial training period for up to six months will require an onsite presence 2-3 days per week. Once initial training is completed, longer term flexible/hybrid work schedules can be negotiated.
