About this role
The Site Readiness & Development team builds the advanced infrastructure ecosystem required to power the organization's long-term artificial intelligence initiatives. This individual contributor role focuses on portfolio-level planning for future data center shell capacity by translating compute demand forecasts and technical specifications into actionable development strategies. Professionals in this position evaluate self-build, lease, colocation, and partnership pathways to identify supply gaps and maintain integrated schedules from site readiness to operational handoff.
What you will do
- Build and maintain a multi-year portfolio plan for data center shell capacity across targeted geographic areas.
- Translate compute forecasts, power schedules, and cooling requirements into specific site and building needs.
- Integrate land, utility, permitting, construction, and network schedules into a unified capacity view.
- Model scenarios comparing self-build, lease, colocation, and partner options to evaluate cost and risk tradeoffs.
- Partner with capacity planning, real estate, design, finance, and legal teams to establish governance and decision gates.
- Create dashboards and executive materials communicating supply, demand, timing, and operational risks.
What you need
- Requires eight or more years of experience in data center development, infrastructure planning, capacity planning, or program controls.
- Must possess experience managing portfolio-level plans across multiple data center sites or infrastructure programs.
- Demonstrates a strong understanding of the data center development lifecycle from site readiness through operational turnover.
- Applies strong quantitative and scenario-modeling skills when working with changing assumptions.
- Exhibits cross-functional program leadership with the ability to align technical, commercial, and operational organizations.
Nice to have
- Experience planning hyperscale data center campuses or infrastructure supporting high-density compute
- Familiarity with powered-land development, utility schedules, and campus-level power phasing
- Experience evaluating self-build, build-to-suit, wholesale colocation, and third-party development models
- Understanding of high-density electrical, mechanical, cooling, and network infrastructure requirements
- Experience creating portfolio-planning systems, capacity dashboards, or executive decision frameworks
