We’re a team of friends bound together by a mission to preserve our planet for future generations through innovative energy solutions and modern infrastructure. Intersect develops, constructs, and operates the most ambitious power and data center infrastructure in the country by co-locating industrial demand with dedicated gas and renewable power generation.   Intersect was acquired by Google in March 2026 and operates as an independent subsidiary. We are developing and constructing multiple gigawatts of energy and data center projects in the U.S., enabling more data center and generation capacity to come online faster. We’re on an aggressive growth trajectory and looking for people hungry to tackle the largest energy challenges on the planet.   Location & Team Gatherings   Intersect has been a fully flexible workplace since its founding in 2016.  We’ve been very intentional about the way we do things. We are not work-from-home, hybrid, or in-office - we are any and all of those options! Deepening social connections and offering shared experiences is a cornerstone of the way we work. We connect as a team at our Team Week experiences four times a year and at our recently established Hub locations - SF Bay Area, NYC Metro Area, NY; Denver, CO; Austin, TX; Calgary, AB; and Toronto, ON.   We are currently looking for candidates located within 60 miles of any of the listed hubs to foster more in-person connections while maintaining our flexible remote culture. About This Role   As part of Intersect’s Development Engineering team, you’ll provide civil and structural guidance that turns early concepts into buildable, code-compliant designs for grid-scale solar, storage, and compute-adjacent data center sites. You’ll set clear design criteria, optimize layouts for land and cost efficiency, and coordinate technical diligence so projects move from site control through Issued for Construction (IFC) with fewer surprises.   You’ll work as an individual contributor while partnering closely with Development, Real Estate, Permitting, Construction, Finance, and external A/E consultants, EPC partners and general contractors. Your work ensures safe, timely, and cost-effective delivery.   Team Overview   The Development Engineering team transforms vision into reality. By owning the civil and structural foundations of project design from early due diligence through Issued for Construction (IFC) and into construction support we de-risk land, permitting, cost, and schedule so Intersect can scale clean energy infrastructure at speed. Our work blends deep technical rigor with practical project management, in close collaboration with EPC partners, consultants, utilities, and internal teams to ensure seamless delivery. Joining this team means contributing directly to Intersect’s mission of powering a sustainable future while growing your expertise in large-scale power project execution.   What You’ll Do   Set the design criteria & align stakeholders Collaborate with internal teams, hyperscalers, external consultants, and AHJs to define and develop civil and structural design criteria aligned with project goals and regulatory requirements Provide civil engineering direction and oversight for data center-adjacent power facilities, coordinating closely with A/E consultants and general contractors   Advance project development & manage risk Support project development from concept to completion, identifying and mitigating design, budget, and schedule risks with a civil-engineering focus Translate commercial, permitting, and site constraints into clear engineering guidance and decision-ready documentation   Optimize layouts for land, cost & permitting Optimize civil site layouts for efficient land use, considering equipment selection, topography, environmental constraints, and permitting requirements Balance constructability, cost, and schedule while iterating designs to reduce risk and improve outcomes   Run technical dilig
