Full Job Description
Role Scope
  • - Source and lock powered land and brownfield sites that can deliver hundreds of megawatts to gigawatts of capacity, ahead of the build pipeline.
  • - Negotiate land purchase, lease, and option agreements with landowners, developers, and utilities who don't share our timeline.
  • - Diligence power availability, interconnection queue position, substation proximity, and deliverability before a site advances past LOI.
  • - Build and manage a pipeline of powered-land opportunities across multiple regions, and kill weak sites fast so capital and attention go to the ones that pencil.
  • - Hand off secured sites to development and construction with clean title, a proven power path, and complete diligence so no surprise stalls mobilization.
What We're Looking For
  • **The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.**
  • - You've personally sourced and closed land or site acquisitions where getting power to the site was the constraint that made or broke the deal.
  • - You've negotiated purchase, lease, and option agreements directly with landowners, developers, and utilities.
  • - You've read an interconnection queue, a utility capacity map, or a substation study and known whether a site could actually get power and when.
  • - You've run land diligence end to end across title, zoning, environmental, and power path, and caught the problem that would have killed the deal after signing.
  • - You've managed a multi-site pipeline and walked away from sites that didn't pencil without sinking months into them first.
  • - You move fast against counterparties who don't, and you've closed a site while a competitor was still scheduling the first call.
  • - **Bonus:** Datacenter, industrial, or large-scale energy site acquisition. Utility interconnection and power markets. Brownfield or greenfield development. Title, entitlement, and land-use diligence.
