AEMO at the Heart of Energy
We are the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO), committed to designing and operating a sustainable energy system that delivers safe, reliable, and affordable electricity and gas. Our mission includes facilitating the transition to a net-zero energy system by 2050, working collaboratively with industry partners to enable power systems to be capable of operating at times at 100% instantaneous renewable generation.
We have the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to co-design the future of our energy systems, and our core values revolve around Character, Commitment, and Connection. Join us as we contribute to this significant mission in the energy sector.
AEMO's System Design division is responsible for planning the power system in the context of unprecedented transformation. The rapid transition to renewable energy generation and electrification of many sectors (transport, industry etc) has seen sharp rises in proposed transmission connection projects.
In Victoria, AEMO performs some of the responsibilities carried out in other states by transmission network service providers (TNSPs), including: Managing the connection process to the Victorian electricity transmission system and assessing the need for network augmentations.

- Experience in power systems analysis and engineering, particularly in the area of electrical power system dynamics and stability concepts and assessment techniques is desirable. (in software such as PSCAD, PSSE V32-V34, DIgSILENT, PowerFactory, SSAT, and Mudpack, as well as other analytical software such as Matlab).
- Electricity industry and regulatory understanding, in particular generator technical requirements is desirable.
In return some of our benefits to you
- Flexible working: work from home, part time, job share, hybrid options, and additional leave options
