Co-Op - IT - Software Engineering

The New York Independent System Operator (NYISO) applies cutting-edge technology to operating a reliable electricity system, managing competitive markets for wholesale electricity, and planning for the Empire State's energy future. The NYISO takes pride in recruiting, developing and retaining highly talented individuals. Our co-op programs give young professionals the opportunity to gain a fundamental understanding of New York electricity markets, bulk electricity systems and how we plan for New York State’s energy future.

The NYISO is seeking a Software Engineering Co-Op to develop a replacement for an existing file-integration application. Guided by an established technical design, the student will participate in the full software delivery lifecycle, from understanding business and technical requirements through development, testing, implementation, documentation, and transition to ongoing support.

The replacement application will use database-backed configuration to make file-movement changes more efficient and reduce the need for code changes and full software deployments. The design will also improve recoverability when errors occur and establish a reusable approach for similar integrations. This assignment offers meaningful ownership of a production-oriented software solution and broad collaboration with technical and business stakeholders.
