Responsibilities

  • Negotiate behind-the-meter PPAs, tolling agreements, and heat rate options with generation owners and developers for multi-hundred-megawatt data center campuses.
  • Negotiate gas supply, transport, and basis arrangements that lock in fuel price and deliverability for each behind-the-meter site before the build starts.
  • Diligence prospective behind-the-meter gas sites for pipeline access, fuel constraints, air permitting, and power delivery risk before we commit to a lease.
  • Evaluate generation equipment (e.g., turbines and reciprocating engines) on heat rate, availability, lead time, emissions, and delivered cost, and turn it into a clear recommendation for leadership.
  • Quarterback development, engineering, legal, and finance from site selection through executed supply contracts to energization, and flag cost and schedule exposure before it reaches leadership.

Qualifications

  • Negotiated gas supply agreements and managed fixed-price, index, and basis exposure; understand fuel constraints affecting plant dispatch.
  • Diligenced gas-fired sites from pipeline access to air permits and power delivery considerations.
  • Compared generation technologies on heat rate, spark-spread economics, and reliability; analysis influenced equipment decisions.
  • Built techno-economic models behind deals and defended sensitivities to lenders, investors, or executives.
  • Quartherback across engineering, legal, finance, and operations; ability to distill technical questions into decisions and next steps for executives.
  • Bonus: Multi-market power experience (ERCOT, PJM, MISO, WECC); plant dispatch and fuel optimization; large-load and utility interconnection; pipeline capacity and midstream contracting.
