Lead Engineer, Transmission & Distribution - Memphis

What you will do
- Own everything from generation terminals and the point of interconnection down to the medium-voltage bus: high-voltage switchyards, collector transmission, main power transformers, and the utility relationship that determines whether the campus energizes on schedule
- Own high-voltage switchyard architecture: bus configuration, GIS versus AIS tradeoffs, bus sectionalizing, and fault-current management
- Lead the interconnection process with the local distributor and balancing authority, including application, system impact and facilities studies, protection philosophy alignment, telemetry and metering, and technical exhibits to the service agreement
- Own campus protection philosophy and the settings management database served to Data Center and Battery Storage — one owner, not three models
- Own the campus power systems studies function: the single model of record for load flow, short circuit, coordination, arc flash, and stability
- Own the generation electrical interface: excitation and governor behavior, synchronizing, generator protection, black start, and station service
