Powering Innovation, Delivering Excellence: Leading the Future of Power Studies!

As a Systems Studies Engineer, you will perform power systems engineering studies in the areas of electromagnetic transients, load flow, short-circuit, transient stability, control design, equipment application, and other transmission and distribution (T&D) areas. Maintain, enhance, and apply knowledge of concepts, technology, and regulations in the power systems field.

The Power Systems Engineering Division (PSED) at Mitsubishi Electric Power Products, Inc. (MEPPI) serves as the company's engineering and consulting arm, helping grid operators, utilities, generators, and major energy users plan, design, and solve complex power system challenges. Our specialty is delivering tailored services that uncover insights beyond the surface and proactively address technical and commercial risks. Our focus is delivering dependable, low-friction project outcomes, reducing uncertainty around system reliability, schedule, compliance, complexity, stranded capital, and reputational exposure.

What You'll Do
