Deep knowledge of “inside-the-fenceline” equipment and industry standards (IEEE, ANSI, IEC, NERC, NFPA). Proven success in leading multidisciplinary teams and managing complex technical interfaces. Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to influence executive leadership and regulatory stakeholders. Ability to travel up to 25\%. ### Desired Qualifications Advanced degree in a relevant technical discipline. Expertise in Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and requirements management tools. Experience with PLC/SCADA systems, IEC 61850 architectures, and grid code compliance.
