Engineer IV

Job Description The Continuous Monitoring team is responsible for piloting, validating, and deploying new technologies—including sensors, AI/ML tools, and advanced monitoring systems—to enhance operational visibility and grid reliability. The team develops solutions in house and collaborates closely with external vendors. A core focus of this team is analyzing real time data to identify issues on the electrical grid and help prevent equipment failures and wildfire risks. We are seeking a motivated and flexible Engineer who is eager to learn, grow, and contribute to a high impact operational environment. In this role, you will analyze data from line sensors, electrical models, and field devices to detect faults, identify grid anomalies, and support rapid operational decision making. You will collaborate with analysts, engineers, and field teams to validate findings and issue investigation tags when necessary.

Note:

Previous experience with RF technology is not required to be successful in this role. ________________________________________ Key Responsibilities

•  Monitor and analyze incoming distribution system data, including: o Line sensor alerts o Electrical circuit model outputs (e.g., fault currents) o Distribution equipment behavior and trends
•  Identify potential system faults and determine likely fault locations using sensor and model data.
•  Issue investigation tags to field crews and follow through on resolution as needed.
•  Support pilots and deployments of new technologies, sensors, and AI/ML tools.
•  Work with cross functional teams (engineering, operations, vendors) to improve data quality and system performance.
•  Contribute to continuous improvement of in house monitoring tools and workflows.
•  Support analysis of distribution equipment performance, including switches, fuses, transformers, and voltage behavior.
•  Perform engineering calculations (e.g., voltage, loading, fault currents) to validate alerts or operational conditions.
•  Manage and interpret data within Foundry and other analytics platforms used by the team.

We are a company committed to creating diverse and inclusive environments where people can bring their full, authentic selves to work every day. We are an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer that believes everyone matters.
