Director of Site Acquisition – Hyperscale Infrastructure | Dallas, TX or San Francisco, CA

Confidential Infrastructure Developer is pioneering the future of AI and high-performance computing by delivering ultra-efficient data centers across North America. As part of an elite team with an ambitious 3GW+ roadmap, we are hiring a Director of Site Acquisition to lead strategic land sourcing for cutting-edge data center developments. If you have a track record of securing utility-ready land for hyperscale or large-scale infrastructure and thrive at the intersection of real estate, utilities, and permitting—this role offers a career-defining opportunity.

Why Join Us :

  • Drive transformative projects that support the AI revolution.
  • Influence long-range infrastructure strategy with C-suite visibility.
  • Collaborate with top-tier developers, engineers, and investors.
  • Competitive compensation and long-term growth opportunities.

Key Responsibilities

Strategic Site Origination

  • Source high-potential land parcels (100–1,000 acres) in regions primed for data center deployment.
  • Evaluate proximity to power infrastructure, fiber access, and water availability.
  • Conduct land due diligence to assess buildability, environmental factors, and development feasibility.
  • Utility and Power Coordination

  • Collaborate with power utilities to determine availability and capacity.
  • Guide interconnection studies and drive grid capacity negotiations (LOIs / MOUs).
  • Align utility delivery timelines with broader project development schedules.
  • Zoning, Permitting & Compliance

  • Navigate complex permitting and rezoning processes.
  • Engage consultants for environmental studies, traffic analysis, and impact assessments.
  • Track regulatory developments and mitigate risks related to water, moratoriums, or permitting delays.
  • Commercial Structuring & Negotiations

  • Lead negotiations on land options, purchases, and lease agreements.
  • Create land ownership structures (SPVs) that align with the investment model.
  • Provide cost breakdowns and financial modeling for prospective acquisitions.
  • Stakeholder Engagement

  • Build trusted relationships with landowners, municipalities, and regulatory bodies.
  • Provide regular progress updates to internal investment and development teams.
  • Maintain pipeline visibility and monitor site conversion metrics.
  • Ideal Candidate Profile

  • 8+ years’ experience in land acquisition, site development, or infrastructure real estate.
  • Proven success sourcing land for energy, data center, or industrial projects.
  • Strong network within utility and permitting ecosystems.
  • Deep knowledge of zoning, interconnection, and large-parcel development.
  • Exceptional negotiation, communication, and project tracking skills.
  • Experience in TX and CA markets strongly preferred.
  • Success Metrics

  • MW of developable land secured quarterly.
  • Timely execution of utility MOUs and interconnection deliverables.
  • Site progression rate from LOI to final land control agreement.
  • Cost efficiency per MW and adherence to development timelines.
  • This is a remote-friendly position with a focus on activity within the Greater Dallas, TX and San Francisco, CA regions.
