Please Note:
- You are not required to report into a Mosaic office; however, there is travel to client locations across North America required for this role (~50%)
- Geographic Flexibility : This position is open to candidates residing anywhere in the US.
- The position requires strong expertise in utility distribution engineering, GIS data structures, CIM/data standards, and control room applications.
Position Overview
The Network Model Engineer is a technical subject matter expert responsible for the design, development, validation, and ongoing governance of the electrical network model supporting Advanced Distribution Management System (ADMS) implementations across North America.
This role is central to successful ADMS deployments and ongoing system reliability. The Network Model Engineer works closely with utility clients, GIS teams, operations stakeholders, and ADMS vendors to ensure the distribution network model is accurate, complete, and optimized for Outage Management Systems and advanced applications including:
- Power flow and state estimation
- Fault location, isolation and service restoration (FLISR)
- Volt/VAR optimization (VVO)
- Relay protection and coordination
- Switching management
- Outage management
- DER integration and hosting capacity analytics
The position requires strong expertise in utility distribution engineering, GIS data structures, CIM/data standards, and control room applications.
Key Responsibilities
ADMS Model Strategy & Governance
- Lead development and governance of the electrical network model supporting ADMS OMS solutions .
- Collaborate with GIS teams , control room operations, engineering, and IT teams to ensure model reflects real-world network conditions , and d efine modeling standards, naming conventions, and best practices aligned with utility operations .
- Facilitate design workshops to align data, processes, and expectations across teams and projects.
- Establish model ownership , long-term maintenance strategies , and d rive continuous improvement of model accuracy, processes, and supporting tools .
ADMS Network Model Development & Configuration
- Define mapping rules and transformation logic between GIS and ADMS OMS platforms.
- Ensure alignment between GIS source data and ADMS OMS network model, including connectivity, phasing, impedance model and asset attributes.
- Define modelling rules for power assets for distribution and transmission substations, including impedance model and asset attributes.
- Define SCADA model, including mapping of field devices, telemetry points, and control signals to ensure accurate real-time representation of the network in A DMS OMS.
- Oversee model build, updates, and version control across the project lifecycle .
