- Manage day-to-day advancement of powered-land opportunities from intake through readiness.
- Own utility application and interconnection follow-through across active powered-land opportunities, including utility inputs, study responses, and queue milestones.
- Scope and manage external studies and consultant workstreams needed to validate readiness.
- Track development schedules, dependencies, risk registers, site-readiness milestones, and key budget implications.
- Translate technical findings into clear schedule, budget, and risk implications and escalate material blockers or trade-offs to the Development & Power Project Lead.
- Partner with land, environmental, economic development, and community affairs leads to align project advancement.
- Support expansion planning, infrastructure sequencing, and long-term power-risk mitigation.
- Define readiness criteria and prepare handoff packages for opportunities moving into deeper diligence or execution.
- Help build repeatable playbooks for powered-land development across geographies.
Requirements
- 6+ years in energy infrastructure, energy project development, site development, data center development, or related project delivery roles.
- Strong understanding of utility coordination, interconnection processes, and development scheduling.
- Experience managing multi-party workstreams across developers, utilities, consultants, and agencies.
- Ability to track multiple complex sites concurrently and translate uncertainty into clear actions.
- Strong communication and documentation skills.
