Job Summary

The role involves establishing an advanced understanding of the technologies and processes necessary for the development and support of Operational Technology (OT) Real Time tools and systems. Responsibilities include providing application support for Energy Management Systems (EMS) and Supervisory Control & Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems, as well as other applications utilized in Transmission Control Centers. Key tasks involve leading efforts to plan, research, and evaluate patching, failover, and maintenance activities required for OT Real Time systems, while developing a comprehensive understanding of EMS and SCADA functionalities. The position also includes developing and maintaining best practices for application development and participating in the creation of technical documentation to support RealTime applications. A strong emphasis on adaptability, customer needs, and continuous improvement is essential for effectively supporting Real Time systems.

Job Description

What you’ll do: • Architect and own OT platform solutions for EMS (primary), SCADA, and ADMS, with a strong focus on the OSI Monarch EMS platform, driving system enhancements, architectural integrity, and  real ‑ time  operational reliability.   • Manage EMS platform vendor relationships and  third ‑ party  integrations, serving as the primary technical interface with  AspenTech /OSI; coordinate vendor support, influence roadmap direction, and lead enablement of new EMS features and advanced applications.   • Define and enforce platform best practices for availability, backup, disaster recovery, and performance optimization, including configuration and support of EMS data archives (PI, OSI  Chronus ).   • Lead  cross ‑ functional  technical efforts to deliver EMS platform capabilities and services, while supporting controlled SCADA/EMS software upgrades, patching, and modernization initiatives across the  real ‑ time  OT environment.   • Partner with  real ‑ time  operations teams and Business Units to understand operational end needs, and translate those needs into EMS platform capabilities, standards, configurations, and reusable services, while  retaining  platform ownership within OT rather than  BU ‑ specific  solution delivery.   • Evaluate emerging EMS, SCADA, ADMS, and OT technologies through  platform ‑ level  analysis to assess operational impact, risk, and  long ‑ term  alignment with EMS platform strategy.   • Investigate, troubleshoot, and resolve complex EMS/SCADA platform issues, serving as a senior escalation point for application failures and performance issues, while providing guidance to less experienced employees on log analysis and  root ‑ cause  troubleshooting.   • Configure platform monitoring and develop repeatable automation using PowerShell, Batch, and Python to deploy configuration changes, patches, and updates consistently across EMS and SCADA servers.   • Analyze logs and application/system  monitors  proactively to  identify  potential issues and develop mitigation strategies that improve platform stability and reduce operational impact.   • Conduct routine backups and periodic restoration testing to  validate  recovery readiness and  maintain  documented emergency restoration and disaster recovery procedures for EMS and SCADA platforms.   • Coordinate with teams and business process owners to schedule and administer patches, updates, and server configuration changes to minimize downtime, while providing  after ‑ hours  support as part of an  on ‑ call  rotation for critical EMS platform incidents.   What we’re looking for:  EMS(Energy Management System) Highly preferred.
