A few things in the source worth checking before posting:

• The title is Electrical Engineering Technician II, but the Scope describes the role as a Power System Operator.
• Scope says “minimal supervision,” while the load-monitoring bullet says “direct supervision.”
• I fixed typos (“Handels” → “Handles”) and tidied “Aspen Tech Monarch Scada” to AspenTech Monarch SCADA; I didn’t verify that product name against AspenTech’s current catalog.
