Original job description

Job Description Summary GE Vernova is seeking a skilled SCADA System Engineer to lead and execute pre-commissioning, commissioning, integration, testing, and maintenance activities for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA), Substation Automation Systems (SAS), and Energy Management Systems (EMS). This role ensures safe integration, point-to-point testing, network configuration, troubleshooting, and customer handover of critical power infrastructure automation - including transmission substations, generation plants, and renewable energy integration sites - while meeting rigorous safety, quality, schedule, and cost requirements.

Job Description

Core Responsibilities

Lead and execute pre-commissioning, commissioning, startup, integration, testing, and maintenance of SCADA, SAS, and gateway systems.
Perform and supervise hardware and software functional testing of:
Substation Automation Systems (SAS) and Remote Terminal Units (RTUs).
HMI (Human-Machine Interface) screens, alarm and event logging, and historical databases.
Communication protocols (e.g., IEC 61850, IEC 60870-5-101/104, DNP3, Modbus).
Network architecture, managed Ethernet switches, routers, firewalls, and fiber optic links.
Time synchronization systems (IRIG-B, PTP / IEEE 1588).
Point-to-point hardwired and logical signal verification between field devices and the master control room.
Lead site teams, integration specialists, contractors, vendors, and subcontractors during automation testing phases.
Coordinate daily site integration activities and commissioning schedules with electrical and protection teams.
Troubleshoot complex communication faults, protocol mismatches, network bottlenecks, and perform Root Cause Analysis (RCA).
Manage punch lists, Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs), software version control, site instructions, and point-to-point database lists.
Review system architecture drawings, network topology diagrams, signal list mapping matrices, functional design specifications (FDS), and factory acceptance test (FAT) results.
Support customer coordination, master station integration, end-to-end signal verification, energization, and acceptance testing.
Maintain accurate technical reports, configuration backups, site acceptance test (SAT) records, daily reports, and project documentation.

Safety & Quality Safety and quality leadership are core expectations of this role. When working with live control networks and auxiliary power supplies, the candidate must be comfortable working under:

Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) requirements for DC control and auxiliary systems
Cybersecurity and NERC CIP compliance standards
OSHA / NFPA 70E standards
IEEE / IEC / NETA standards
GE Vernova safety and quality procedures

Candidates must demonstrate the ability to maintain high safety and quality standards even under significant schedule pressure. Leadership Expectations

Beyond technical execution, this role requires:

Mentoring junior automation engineers and technicians on SCADA configuration and testing methodologies.
Coordinating multidisciplinary site and remote engineering teams.
Managing software and hardware vendors and suppliers.
Making sound decisions during critical cutover and energization windows.
Communicating effectively with customers, utility dispatchers, and project management.
Managing competing priorities under schedule pressure.
Providing technical leadership and remote troubleshooting support for substation automation.
Establishing best practices and driving continuous improvement in SCADA commissioning execution.

Project Management Component This role carries project execution responsibility across the full project lifecycle for automation and control systems: Planning → Mobilization → Network Installation → Point-to-Point Testing → Functional Testing → Integration & Commissioning → Energization → Customer Acceptance

Responsibilities include control over:

Schedule for SCADA/SAS testing and integration milestones
Specialized testing software, diagnostic tools, and network test equipment
Costs and manpower utilization
Technical documentation and software configuration management
Risks and opportunities related to network security, protocol integration, and schedule alignment
Customer requirements

Required Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Power Systems, or equivalent experience.
5–8+ years of field and back-office experience in electrical power systems with a primary focus on SCADA, Substation Automation, and RTU commissioning.

Desired Technical Strengths

Strong candidates will have experience in several of the following areas:

Substation Automation Systems (SAS) | SCADA & HMI Configuration | RTUs & Gateways | IEC 61850 (GOOSE & Sampled Values) | Industrial Networking & Cybersecurity | DNP3 / IEC 104 Protocols | Point-to-Point Signal Verification | HV Substations | Renewable Energy Integration
Hands-on experience with SCADA/HMI configuration software (e.g., GE, ABB/Hitachi, Siemens, SEL) and protocol analyzers (e.g., Wireshark).
Proven experience leading field testing and integration teams.
Willingness to travel extensively (approximately 40–60%+, depending on position).
Ability to work in Canada, the U.S., and potentially internationally.
Knowledge of IEC 61850, DNP3, Modbus standards, and NERC CIP cybersecurity frameworks.
Strong Microsoft Office skills and database familiarity.
Fluency in English required; additional languages are an asset depending on the region.
