SUMMARY

Mortenson is currently seeking an experienced Design Engineer III or IV - Time Domain Power Studies Focus, responsible for a broad range of detailed engineering designs for high voltage substation, collection, and transmission projects through 500 kV. You will be responsible for working closely with other engineering and design team members to coordinate the overall design package and requirements. The main focus of this position will be time domain simulations like TOV and Harmonics using software like PSCAD. Even though the emphasis is on time domain simulations, the engineer is expected to fill in for phasor domain simulations, using software like PSSE, when needed. A big plus is having experience in dynamic simulations, such as PRC-024 and MOD-026, using PSSE.
