• Lead the end-to-end delivery of GMS projects, ensuring adherence to scope, schedule, and quality standards. 

• Provide technical leadership in the configuration, tuning, and validation of key GMS applications, including: 

• Automatic Generation Control (AGC) 

• Economic Dispatch (ED) 

• Unit Commitment (UC) 

• Reserve Monitoring and Performance Tracking 

• Load Forecasting and Control Optimization 

• Serve as the subject matter expert (SME) and escalation point for the engineering team on technical design and integration issues. 

• Ensure GMS projects are engineered in compliance with customer requirements, industry standards, and AspenTech DGM best practices. 

• Collaborate closely with global AspenTech/OSI engineering teams to share knowledge, align methodologies, and drive continuous improvement across regions. 

• Lead the recruitment, onboarding, and training of new engineers to support team expansion in line with business growth. 

• Promote a culture of technical excellence, collaboration, and accountability within the team. 

• Oversee resource allocation and ensure appropriate staffing for project commitments, drawing from internal and external resources as needed. 

• Drive process optimization and standardization to improve project delivery efficiency and reduce engineering rework. 

• Maintain close engagement with customers throughout project lifecycles to ensure high-quality outcomes and alignment with operational needs. 

• Support development and maintenance of technical documentation, training materials, and reusable engineering assets for GMS delivery. 

What You'll Need

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering required; Master’s degree preferred, with specialization in Power Systems or Energy Systems. 

• Minimum 5–8 years of experience in Power Systems Engineering, including exposure to GMS/EMS applications or related control center technologies. 

• At least 3–5 years of experience in a leadership or team management role within a technical engineering organization. 

• Strong understanding of generation operations, real-time system control, and grid optimization techniques. 

• Hands-on experience with OSI’s GMS platform or other AspenTech DGM applications strongly preferred. 

• Proven ability to manage multiple projects s
