About the role
Role responsible for leading site due diligence, contract negotiations, and multi-site civil/construction coordination for Fluidstack's hyperscale data center buildout.
Responsibilities
- Run technical due diligence on every site from Site Acquisitions' handoff to break ground, directing environmental and civil engineers through environmental site assessments, land and boundary surveys, and traffic impact studies.
- Make the go or no-go call on dirt: buildable, on time, on budget, with no deal-killers or permanent risks before we transact.
- Negotiate and organize contracts directly, joining risk-profile decisions and taking big commercials off leadership's plate.
- Bring on the civil engineer, architect, and GC, and own the master budget, milestone schedule, and floor access dates across five or more sites at once.
Qualifications
- You've personally run technical due diligence on land and can walk site identification to break ground in order, from the first environmental assessments and land surveys on, saying what you did yourself at each step.
- You've directed environmental and civil engineers and read traffic impact studies closely enough to challenge them.
- You've decided what kills a deal and what is acceptable risk, and told leadership a site was clean enough to transact.
- You've negotiated or organized contracts yourself.
- You run several projects at once on your own and bring leadership a decision.
