Investigating the application of new equipment and technology solutions.
Validation and ongoing management of telemetry and data extracted from remote systems.

We draw on each other's strengths, diversity, and passion to provide the best solutions to ensure safe and reliable operation of the Grid. We are on a journey of optimisation and continuous improvement, challenging ourselves to go from good to great.
About the opportunity
Based in our Hamilton or Wellington office, being part of the Real-Time Systems Team, you will be involved with the configuration and modelling of RTUs, HMIs, and SCADA EMS databases/displays which represent the transmission grid.
You will be testing and integrating new substation automation equipment to meet Transpower's Standards, wiring up and maintaining equipment in an extensive engineering environment, and fault finding on our Substation Automation Systems and/or SCADA /EMS. You'll work collaboratively to further enhance our automation journey to drive more efficient delivery of projects.
We will actively support you with training and development opportunities and connect you with people from varied fields across Transpower. You'll extend your professional network and gain valuable insights into other parts of the business to grow your knowledge and learn new skills.
We encourage on-the-job learning and work-life balance, celebrating diversity and welcoming applicants from all backgrounds, as we believe in the power of diverse perspectives to drive innovation.
So, what will you bring?
To be considered, your CV and cover letter will demonstrate a relevant qualification and:

Working knowledge of automation and control systems, their architectures, and integration of devices into operational technology (OT) environments.
The ability to produce sound technical and analytical reports, including process designs, problem analysis, technical guides, and procedures.
Sound digital literacy and the ability to learn and use vendor specific software applications (e.g. EATON SMP Manager).
Well-developed verbal and written communication skills.

While not essential, experience/skills in any of the following areas will be well regarded:

GE/Alstom e-terra suite of products e.g. e-terra platform / habitat / control / e-terraSource / browser / FG Display Builder, and OAG.
