AEMO's purpose is to ensure safe, reliable, and affordable energy today, and enable the energy transition for the benefit of all Australians. Australian governments are now committed to a net zero economy for Australia by 2050, and our vision is to enable this. We have the opportunity to co-design the future of our energy systems, and our core values revolve around character, commitment, and connection.

Reporting to the Manager of Operational Analysis and Engineering, this role offers flexibility to be based at any of our office locations across multiple states.

    What You Will Be Doing

    • Develop and lead modelling work to address power system oscillation issues and identify risks to power system equipment.
    • Lead assessments for existing and future system restart ancillary services.
    • Lead the workstream of activities needed to support operational requirements for system strength and inertia.
    • Provide ad-hoc support to address power system security issues and develop high-quality technical reports documenting study outcomes.
    • Support the Manager in presenting technical findings to internal and external stakeholders and in people-management processes and development.

    What You Will Bring to the Role

    • Tertiary qualifications in Electrical Engineering degree with a power system and/or power electronics focus.
    • Extensive experience in the field of power systems with experience in modelling and simulations.
    • Ability to lead and direct small to medium technical teams to drive technical outcomes for projects.
    • Deep understanding of power system dynamics and stability concepts with applications to power system operations.
    • Strong Knowledge of national electricity rules and principles of maintaining power system security.
    • Excellent report writing capability to document outcomes of detailed simulations and develop sound technical recommendations.

    In Return Some of Our Benefits to You

    • Professional development via projects, industry networks, job rotation, study assistance and more.
    • Give back with up to 4 days of volunteering leave per year.
    • Reward your hard work with annual performance bonuses (subject to eligibility).
    • Embrace a healthier you with our wellness program, discounted health insurance, gym perks and our comprehensive Employee Assistance Program (EAP).
