Responsibilities

  • Lead the commercial negotiation and documentation of development deals, complex site leasing, and real estate transactions.
  • Structure and manage specialized contracts critical to hyperscale deployments, including corporate Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), utility interconnection agreements, behind-the-meter generation frameworks, and storage systems.
  • Draft, review, and negotiate construction contracts, engineering services agreements, and design-build documents tailored for infrastructure handling gigawatts of power.
  • Partner with corporate development, tax and other teams to support project finance elements, tax incentives, and intricate lease arrangements that enable massive capital deployment.
  • Align legal risk frameworks closely with technical engineering, security, business development, and strategic financial models.
  • Direct and manage specialized outside counsel on complex regulatory or regional matters while maintaining strictly focused in-house strategic judgment.

Requirements

  • 6+ years of legal experience running complex commercial transactions, ideally split between an elite AmLaw law firm and an innovative, fast-moving infrastructure or technology company.

  • Strong technical and energy market literacy, displaying a clear understanding of data centers, wholesale electricity markets (e.g., ERCOT, PJM), utility interconnections, and emerging AI hardware stacks.
  • Solution-oriented commercial mindset with an ability to demonstrate sound, definitive judgment in high-stakes, highly ambiguous situations.
  • Elite communication abilities, with a demonstrated capacity to accurately and concisely bridge technical engineering needs with legal protections.
  • A JD from an accredited law school and an active bar membership in at least one U.S. state.
  • Thriving under pressure in an environment that demands high responsiveness, versatility, and absolute ownership.
