Title: Project Manager II
Location: Austin, TX (Remote with occasional onsite meetings)
Duration: 4 6 months+

Work Description:
This position supports IT system integration for a new Resiliency-as-a-Service (RaaS) program mandated by TX Legislation SB 398 of the 87th Regular Session. The program enables the installation and grid interconnection of on-site commercial and industrial distributed energy resources (DERs), which provide backup power during grid outages and can be dispatched during peak ERCOT scenarios.

The contractor will be responsible for developing a Microsoft Power Automate-based project tracking system to manage RaaS projects from intake through the permission-to-operate stage. This system will include automated process flows to notify relevant personnel of project status at every stage.

The role also involves integrating the new service with existing IT systems such as Meter Data Management Systems (MDMS), Generation Management Systems (GMS), and meeting ERCOT metering and reporting requirements. The contractor will collaborate with internal business units and external generation vendors to ensure proper real-time and monthly communication of distributed generation resource status to ERCOT. Some on-site testing of communication equipment may be necessary.

Worker Skills and Qualifications:

Minimum (Required):

  • 4 7 years of experience in information systems, system integration, and project delivery.

  • Experience working with external vendors and/or supporting quality assurance efforts.

  • Ability to work independently, exercise initiative, and apply sound judgment in delivering defined projects.

Preferred (Optional):

  • 2 4 years of experience with Microsoft Visio and Microsoft Power Automate, including creating automated workflows.

  • Knowledge of ERCOT metering and telemetry communication protocols.

  • Familiarity with the registration and interconnection of distributed generation resources.

  • Experience with network operation centers (NOCs), Generation Management Systems (GMS), and Inter Control Center Communications Protocol (ICCP), particularly in integrating distributed resources with utility distribution and transmission grids.
