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 help shape the engineering standards, technical governance, and innovation strategies that support some of the industry’s largest utility-scale solar, wind, and energy storage projects. This role serves as a technical leader responsible for developing and continuously improving engineering standards, specifications, processes, and contract exhibits that drive consistency, quality, and long-term value across Intersect’s portfolio.
You’ll collaborate closely with Development Engineering, Procurement, Construction, Asset Management, Legal, Finance, EPC partners, consultants, and equipment suppliers to strengthen technical rigor, improve project delivery, and advance innovative engineering solutions. Through technical leadership and cross-functional partnership, you’ll influence how projects are designed, contracted, built, and operated while helping Intersect scale efficiently and responsibly.
