Eversource will not offer immigration-related sponsorship for this position (e.g., H-1B, O-1, J-1, TN, E-3, etc.). Applicants requiring visa sponsorship to start employment with Eversource will not be considered.
Role and Scope of Position:
The Engineer will be part of the Advanced Modeling and Forecasting Team within the System Planning organization. This position focuses on advanced Synergi Electric modeling, special study modeling and MATLAB-based automation and model management capabilities.
A large portion of this role is dedicated to hands on Synergi Electric modeling and special studies, including capacity relief, contingency analysis, fault current analysis. The remaining part of the role focuses on automation, standardization, and model management, including MATLAB based automation of the Synergi Electric Solver, execution of large scale studies, and support of Synergi model governance functions.
The incumbent will support Eversource’s strategy to deliver technically rigorous, repeatable, and defensible planning studies, working across System Planning, Distribution Engineering, DER Planning, Reliability and Resiliency, and IT. This role directly supports distribution investment decisions, regulatory facing analysis, and long range system planning.
