About the role

We're looking for a Project Manager, Site Selection to own end-to-end coordination of our site acquisition pipeline — from initial market intake through lease execution and handoff to delivery — across multiple concurrent real estate transactions with varying site types. This role sits at the center of a cross-functional process spanning Construction, Engineering/Design, Network Engineering, Finance, Security, Tax, and Legal, and requires someone who can keep a high-volume pipeline moving with precision, flag risk early, and drive deals to close.

Responsibilities

• Own the site selection project portfolio end to end across multiple active sites simultaneously — from initial intake and market screening through term sheet negotiation, due diligence, internal cross-functional review, deal approval, contract negotiation, and lease execution.
• Coordinate cross-functional site reviews across disciplines (Construction, Engineering/Design, Network, Finance, Security, Tax): assigning owners, defining completion criteria, and holding the line on deadlines.
• Drive due diligence workflows, including document/data reviews, site visits, and go/no-go decision packages, partnering closely with site selection, construction, and operator teams.
• Manage lease negotiation logistics: letter of intent drafting and signature, scope of work development, internal deal approvals, and coordination with external counsel through contract review and execution.
• Maintain a single source of truth for site status, health, target lease signature dates, and portfolio-level reporting to leadership.
• Identify and escalate risk — schedule slippage, unowned workstreams, data discrepancies (e.g., conflicting site addresses or tracker inconsistencies) — before they threaten a deal timeline.
• Coordinate with operators, brokers, and internal stakeholders (Sales, Tax, Legal, Network Engineering, Construction) to keep every function aligned on the same site data and timeline.
• Support tax and incentive analysis by compiling accurate site location data (address, legal description, coordinates, estimated investment value) for internal tax teams and local government partners.

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in data center site selection, real estate acquisition, infrastructure development, or related commercial real estate, ideally supporting hyperscale, cloud, or AI infrastructure customers.
• Demonstrated experience managing multiple concurrent, high-value real estate transactions from intake through close, with strong attention to accuracy and follow-through.
• Working knowledge of power/utility infrastructure, fiber/carrier availability, zoning and permitting, and regional tax incentive structures.

Benefits

• 100% company-paid insurance premiums for employee medical, dental, and vision plans.
• 401(k) plan that matches 100% up to 4%, with immediate vesting.
• Professional Development Reimbursement of $2,500 each year.
• 11 Holidays + Paid Time Off Accrual + Rollover Plan.
• Increased PTO at 3-year and 10-year anniversary + 1-month paid sabbatical every 5 years + Anniversary Bonus each year.
• $500 stipend for remote office setup in first year + $400 each following year.
• Internet reimbursement up to $75 per month.
• Gym membership reimbursement up to $50 per month.
• Company-paid Wellable subscription.

Pay

$130,000 - $150,000. Final compensation will vary depending on years of experience, background/skill set, location, and applicable laws.
