About the Team
At Asset Information Management (AIM), we deliver and continuously improve high-quality asset information products. The energy transition demands a data-driven approach, making accurate electrical grid topology crucial. Within AIM, you'll join the expert team of Data Integration & Policy, closely collaborating with:

• Data Quality & Data Governance
• Asset Data Services
• Product Management Asset Registration

Our team is ambitious, dedicated, and regularly engages in activities that foster collaboration and camaraderie.

Role Purpose
As a Grid Topology Modeler, your primary responsibility is modeling Stedin's electrical grid into a central data product, becoming the definitive reference for grid topology used across the organization. This requires effectively balancing detail with simplification and abstraction to ensure usability, especially for capacity management and smart grid initiatives. More precisely, the goal is to provide a comprehensive topology data product that enables Stedin to effectively assess and visualize who is connected to what within the grid. This involves accurately tracing connections both upstream and downstream,
thereby facilitating efficient grid management and ensuring reliable service delivery. By creating and maintaining this detailed dataset, you will support various operational and strategic initiatives, ultimately contributing to the optimization and resilience of the electrical grid infrastructure.

Key Responsibilities
Grid Prototyping and Modeling
• Focus on the initial phases of prototyping and modeling the electrical grid topology within a central data product.
• Streamline fragmented and inconsistent data sources by implementing a unified data product in line with the Stedin Logical Data Model.

Collaboration and Knowledge Sharing
• Organize and facilitate workshops to define and standardize missing asset definitions.
• Democratize grid knowledge through workshops, engaging technical and non-technical teams.
• Work closely with departments requiring topology information to enhance data-driven operations.

What This Role Enables

Analytical Insights and Optimization
• Enable accurate digital calculation of grid capacity for customer energy requests.
• Support optimal utilization of existing grid infrastructure through data-driven analysis, informing strategic investment decisions.

Compliance and Safety Assurance
• Ensure compliance with legal and regulatory requirements regarding touch safetythrough meticulous assessments and recommendations.
