  • Proficiency in PSS/E and PSCAD; experience with DIgSILENT PowerFactory and PSSE SINCAL is a plus 
  • Familiarity with a wide range of synchronous and non-synchronous technologies, including storage, hybrids, and grid-forming inverters

  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders and produce clear, targeted technical reports
