Power Engineer Visa Sponsorship Jobs in Washington

INTRODUCTION

GE Vernova is an energy company that helps electrify and decarbonize the world. Our Electrification business builds the grid equipment, software and services that utilities use to run reliable power networks, including the GridOS software portfolio.

As an engineer here, you will help grid operators use artificial intelligence (AI) to keep power flowing reliably. You will develop AI/ML-enabled software for GE Vernova's GridOS portfolio, translating power-system research and prototypes into dependable, secure and deployable products for grid monitoring, analysis and operator decision support.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Develop AI/ML applications for transmission and distribution use cases, including grid monitoring, fault and event analysis, forecasting, anomaly detection, contingency analysis and operator decision support.
• Design, train and evaluate time-series, deep-learning, graph-based, physics-informed, optimization and probabilistic methods for power-system applications.
• Develop agentic AI and large language model (LLM) applications that securely connect to approved grid data and software tools through APIs, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and Model Context Protocol (MCP) interfaces.
• Evaluate models and agents for accuracy, robustness, latency, scalability, explainability and hallucination risk, including in on-premises utility environments.
• Create domain-grounded datasets and validate solutions using power-system models, simulations, historical operational data and expert-reviewed scenarios.
• Convert prototypes into production-quality services and collaborate with product, engineering, research and customer teams to define high-value use cases, acceptance criteria and validation plans.

QUALIFICATIONS

You are an engineer who can combine power-system knowledge, AI/ML methods and software engineering to move from an ambiguous research question to a validated production outcome.

A formal education and subsequent Bachelor or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science or a related STEM field is nice to have. We are most interested in your total experience and professional achievements.

Required

• Experience applying AI/ML to power-system problems through industry work, research, internships or a thesis
• Working knowledge of power-system analysis, operation or control, including transmission or distribution systems
• Programming proficiency in Python and/or MATLAB
• Experience with PyTorch, TensorFlow, scikit-learn, Pandas, NumPy or similar scientific-computing and ML libraries
• Experience developing, testing, debugging and integrating production software in a collaborative engineering environment

Preferred

• Experience with foundation models, LLMs, agentic AI, RAG, MCP tool calling, model evaluation, fine-tuning or human-in-the-loop workflows
• Familiarity with PowerWorld, PSS/E, PSLF, PSCAD, OpenDSS or MATLAB/Simulink, and methods such as graph neural networks, knowledge graphs or physics-informed ML
• Experience with Git, APIs, databases, Linux, containers, CI/CD, observability and secure cloud or on-premises deployment
