Control and Protection Engineer

**Job Description Summary**: Control engineering is a cross-functional engineering discipline centered on an approach, mindset, and process. All activities that consider both the business and the technical needs of the customers with the goal of providing a quality product that meets the users needs. The discipline that executes a robust process of design, creation, and optimization of systems, consisting of identification and quantification of system requirements, creation of alternate system design concepts, performance of design trade studies, selection and implementation of the best designs and verification that the design is properly integrated and executed. Process that proceeds from concept to production to operation.
Impacts departmental operations and responsible for Tendering/execution.

The current role is expected to deliver ITO/OTR for HVDC&AC Grid projects. Strong fundamental competency on projects on HVDC,EHV/HV Designs of Grid substation (AIS & GIS) is pre-requisite.

**Roles and Responsibilities**:

- Protection coordination design and validation, control, protection, and sequencing strategy specifications, parameters tuning to meet grid stability criteria specified in customer technical specifications.
- Defining control system requirements for the software architecture, development, and verification
- Performing PSSE/PSCAD and PSSE/RSCAD Power system network conversion, modelling, and verification, Prepare RSCAD model and perform study on Real Time Digital Simulator (RTDS) model FACTS project.
- Plant modelling in various simulation tools (MATLAB, RSCAD, PSCAD etc) and its verification, dynamic performance studies using both offline and online simulation tools
- Design and develop substation control philosophies, protection single-line diagrams (SLD), as well as control and protection, and SCADA systems, auxiliary supply systems, and associated equipment.
- Develop and implement control and protection schemes for substation systems, including engineering BOQ, drawings, calculations, and technical specifications for both tender and execution stages.
- Collaborate with other functions to integrate control and protection systems into overall project designs.
- Strong understanding of electrical power systems, including generators, transformers, switchgear, and transmission lines.
- Ability to use control and protection software tools such as relay coordination software, and simulation programs.
- Deploy Engineering tools (CAD, PDM/DMS) as per project requirements.
- Knowledge of various protection schemes including overcurrent, differential, distance, and busbar protection.
- Ability to analyze and interpret relay settings, coordination curves, and fault records.
- Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to troubleshoot complex electrical issues.
- Effective communication and teamwork skills to collaborate with internal and external stakeholders.
- Integrate EHS requirements based on project Strategy and deploy HAZID (Hazard identification) sessions at different project phases.
- Engineering management skills to handle engineering tasks, timelines, and resources efficiently.
- Deliver high technical quality of GE’s proposals in LV Secondary side including processes & programs that make the proposals more accepted (compliant or clarified), effective, and cost competitive to the customer with reduced overall-performance risk.
- Responsible for technical proposal accuracy including technical specifications & clarifications/ assumptions/ exceptions, quantifying design and deliverables, installation work scope definition, cost allocation, bill of materials, and estimation of engineering, installation and testing/commissioning based on customer specifications and/or industry standards (IEEE, NESC, ANSI, NEMA, IEC, etc.), sourcing, and historical data.
- Perform basic studies in LV Secondary side and necessary to verify proper specification and design of proposed solutions.
- Provide technical support to create subcontractors and power equipment bid packages.
- Design and implement methodologies, templates, and libraries that provide the most accurate cost estimates with the least amount of engineering effort for a given customer scope.
- Write technical specifications for LV and Control/Protection and services, working with PM’s & Sourcing to manage quotes and vendor responses.
- Work with the Proposal Manager, Engineering team, and assigned multi-discipline engineers to provide up to full “Engineer, Procure, & Construct” estimates for HV Substations, conventional utility, industrial, & renewable substations, P&C and equipment programs, Systems & Communications projects, and BOP projects including FACTS, HVDC Segments

**Required Qualifications**:

- Bachelor of Electrical Engineering or relevant educational degree.
- Fluency in English is mandatory
- At least 3 years experiences on substation integration design, with minimum 5 years experiences in substation protection, control and auxil
