The Opportunity
We're looking for a Power Systems Engineer to join our growing team and play a key role in developing innovative solutions for electricity distribution networks.
In this role, you'll work alongside software engineers, data scientists and technical specialists to transform complex power system challenges into practical, data-driven solutions. You'll develop advanced network models and algorithms, provide technical expertise on UK distribution networks and help shape products that support Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) in making smarter operational and planning decisions.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys solving complex technical problems, working across disciplines and seeing their work create real-world impact.
If you're passionate about power systems, innovation and the future of energy, we'd love to hear from you.
What You'll Be Doing
- Develop, validate and maintain power system network models and associated methodologies.
- Design, develop and test robust algorithms for power system analysis, optimisation and planning.
- Analyse network, operational and time-series data to validate models, identify opportunities for improvement and troubleshoot issues.
- Act as a subject matter expert on UK electricity distribution networks within multidisciplinary project teams.
- Collaborate closely with software engineers and data scientists to translate engineering methodologies into scalable solutions.
- Engage with customers to understand their challenges and help define effective technical solutions.
- Clearly communicate technical concepts, methodologies and recommendations to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Manage priorities across multiple projects and adapt effectively to changing business needs.
