Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Systems, or related field
8–12+ years of experience in utility engineering, power systems, or grid‑connected infrastructure
Significant exposure to large‑scale data centers, industrial loads, or hyperscale cloud environments
Deep understanding of transmission and distribution systems, interconnection processes, protection and controls, and utility planning
Proven experience working directly with electric utilities, ISOs/RTOs, or transmission owners on high‑capacity interconnections
Demonstrated success leading complex, multi‑stakeholder projects from concept through energization
Strong ability to interpret and produce electrical one‑lines, protection schemes, and system studies (load flow, short‑circuit, reliability)
Excellent communication skills
Demonstrated experience with power generation projects and/or generation plant electrical design
Designing or overseeing design of generation plant one-lines, MV distribution, synchronization/paralleling, protection and controls

Responsibilities

Develop and own the long‑term utility strategy to support high‑density AI / GPU data centers across existing and new regions.
Evaluate and select sites based on grid capacity, reliability, renewable/low‑carbon options, interconnection queues, and regulatory constraints.
Build and maintain load forecasts based on AI / GPU growth scenarios and translate them into concrete utility capacity plans.
Develop power supply strategies that include both grid supply and on-site/behind-the-meter generation, evaluating trade-offs across reliability, schedule, fuel availability, emissions, and total cost of ownership.
Lead technical and commercial engagements with utilities, ISOs/RTOs, transmission owners, and large energy providers from early‑stage site diligence through energization.
Own the end-to-end technical strategy for on-site power generation used to support data center capacity, schedule acceleration, and resilience.
Define technical requirements and design standards for utility interfaces to high‑density GPU data centers (substations, transformers, switchgear, protection, metering, etc.).
Serve as the utility engineering owner for a set of data center development projects from due diligence through energization.
Ensure that utility designs meet or exceed reliability targets suitable for AI / GPU workloads with high power density and utilization.
Lead internal and external partners, setting clear priorities and delivering against aggressive timelines.
