Ability to analyze complex, fast-moving situations and make sound decisions under pressure.
Skilled in interpreting one-line diagrams, system data, and operating procedures.
Effective communicator who can coordinate clearly across teams and external partners.

Familiarity with ERCOT protocols and NERC reliability standards including ERCOT Energy Emergency Alerts (EEA).
Ability to work and stay attentive throughout a twelve-hour shift on weekends, holidays, and non-standard hours at a sit/stand workstation. Work involves frequent finger/hand manipulation in using a keyboard and mouse
