IT Applications Analyst, SCADA/ADMS

Job Summary The ADMS Program is transforming how our client operates the grid by modernizing critical operational technologies across all of their service territories. Over the past several years, the Program has evolved from individual upgrade efforts into an enterprise-wide strategy focused on delivering a common platform, a repeatable deployment model, and a sustainable delivery and support organization. This evolution has enabled greater consistency across jurisdictions, improved operational readiness, and established a stronger foundation for advancing future grid management capabilities. This Senior IT Applications Analyst position serves as a key technical resource supporting the St. Petersburg Distribution Control Center (DCC) and the operational health of the SCADA and ADMS systems. The role requires a highly skilled individual capable of balancing daily production support responsibilities with strategic delivery and continuous improvement initiatives. The individual selected for this position will have a strong, capable team around them (including FTE's and managed service provider resources) to provide support 24x7. Working closely with DCC personnel, business stakeholders, vendors, and support teams, this position will be responsible for monitoring system health, troubleshooting complex issues, coordinating incident response, validating future releases, supporting downstream integrations, and ensuring critical grid operations technology remains reliable, secure, and available at all times. The position serves as a trusted technical partner to DCC operations, providing hands-on support for grid systems and related operational technologies that support our client's commitment to safe and reliable electric service. In addition to day-to-day support, this role will play an important part in the ongoing modernization and sustainment of the ADMS platform. The successful candidate will support recurring software upgrades, infrastructure improvements, continuous improvement efforts, and deployment initiatives. Given exposure to hurricanes and other severe weather events, the position requires a strong commitment to storm readiness and response including extended support during major weather events, rapid issue resolution, and close coordination with DCC operators and restoration teams. The ideal candidate is a self-driven technical leader who can operate independently, communicate effectively across technical and business stakeholders, and provide both operational support and delivery expertise to help ensure grid management systems remain resilient, modern, and prepared to support the ever-evolving needs of the business and customers.

Incumbents are expected to develop advanced skills and to have the ability to work independently, with guidance limited to unusual or complex projects or issues.
