Job Summary
We are seeking a DERMS Modeler to support the design build and ongoing maintenance of a network operations model for a Distributed Energy Resource Management System (DERMS). This role will play a critical part in enabling advanced grid capabilities such as forecasting optimization and DER integration by transforming disparate data sources into a unified connected network model.
The ideal candidate will bring experience in power system modeling data transformation and utility operations systems and will contribute to both initial DERMS implementation and long-term model support.
Key Responsibilities
The ideal candidate will bring experience in power system modeling data transformation and utility operations systems and will contribute to both initial DERMS implementation and long-term model support.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the model build process for DERMS by integrating multiple data sources into a network operations model including:
- GIS data
- Substation internals
- Customer data
- Asset management systems
- DER attribution data
- Customer programs and interconnection agreements
- Convert and normalize structured data formats (CIM XML JSON) into usable models for DERMS and ADMS environments
- Develop and maintain interfaces and data pipelines connecting upstream data sources to the DERMS platform
- Build and maintain:
- Logical network models (hierarchical grid topology)
- Full impedance network models for power flow and operational analysis
- Support DERMS implementation efforts including:
- Data modeling strategy
- Workflow and process design
- Integration with ADMS and DERMS Model Manager platforms
- Ensure integration and operational continuity with existing systems leveraging the network operations model (e.g. ADMS SCADA analytics platforms)
- Provide ongoing modeling support post-implementation including model updates validation and performance tuning
- Experience working with DERMS and/or ADMS platforms ideally with:
- GE Vernova GridOS DERMS
- GridOS Connect
- Hands-on experience:
- Building CIM (CIM16 preferred) model files
- Developing network topology models
- Creating impedance-based models for power flow analysis
- Strong data engineering/modeling capability with:
- Structured data formats (XML JSON CIM)
- Large-scale data transformation
- Proficiency with Databricks or similar data platforms
- Understanding of electric utility grid operations and distribution systems
- Experience modeling in:
- GIS systems
- Oracle NMS or similar network modeling tools
- Familiarity with:
- Distributed Energy Resources (DER) programs or platforms (e.g. PowerClerk renewables integration)
- SCADA systems or communications modeling
- Utility coordination processes (e.g. DCC Distribution Control Center)
- Experience with:
- Databases querying or scripting (SQL Python etc.)
- Bachelors degree in:
- Engineering (Electrical preferred)
- Computer Science
- Information Systems
- or related field
- 3 years of experience in:
- Power system modeling ADMS/DERMS or related utility systems
- Successful delivery of a fully integrated DERMS network model enabling forecasting and optimization
- Accurate and scalable integration of multiple enterprise data sources
- Seamless interoperability with existing utility platforms (ADMS SCADA GIS)
- Consistent model performance and reliability post-implementation
