Site Selection ManagerExamples of key problems the team is working on- Find enough land to deploy multiple gigawatts a week. By 2030 we need to bring on multiple gigawatts of new capacity every week, which means securing sites at a pace and scale no one in the industry has operated at. You'll own finding and locking that land ahead of the build.
- Get power online in months, not years. Most of the clock runs before the lease is ever signed. You'll optimize the pre-signature work, site diligence, permitting, and development, so a site goes from signed lease to live power in under six months.
- Acquire 10s to 100s of GWs behind the meter. Reaching that scale means generating on-site instead of waiting on grid interconnection. You'll secure the land and behind-the-meter solar generation to get there.
Role Scope- Lead the site procurement strategy for the US data center portfolio, sourcing and evaluating powered land for large-scale development and negotiating leases with data center operators.
- Conduct site due diligence: evaluate utility and behind-the-meter power at 200MW+ scale, and assess buildability through title docs, surveys, geotechnical reports, and environmental studies.
- Understand permitting requirements at each site and their implications for the construction schedule.
- Maintain relationships with brokers, landowners, and developers so a valid site is never missed, and run vendor due diligence including on-site audits with specialist engineers.
- Work directly with DC Design to keep sites matched to the latest technical requirements, and own capacity planning and forecasting across clients and regions.
- Partner with Finance on multi-year infrastructure investment and cost structures, and lead commercial negotiations with landowners and developers.
