Background

About Riley Thompson

I currently work as a Distribution Engineer at Cappstone Energy Group LLC with a Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering. As a distribution engineer, I do a variety of work including SCADA system development and FLISR programming, using AutoCAD to develop permits, and assisting in the development of power system models. Before my full time employment, I held an intern position with Cappstone Energy Group. During my employment I have performed system inspections for power grids, GPS projects for the power lines, light inspections, and joint-use audits for companies such as Central Georgia EMC, Georgia Power, Washington EMC, Middle Tennesee EMC, and Snapping Shoals EMC. I also have experience in commercial plumbing, which I worked in for two summers prior to my current internship. During my undergraduate studies I have gained knowledge in circuit analysis, power systems, and many different coding languages such as MATLAB, C++, and VHDL. During my high school years I gained knowledge and user certification in Autodesk programs such as AutoCAD, Inventor, and Revit.
