We thrive on a culture of relentless innovation, ownership, and accountability, where every team member takes pride in their work and drives it with excellence and urgency. As an Nscaler, you'll build trust through openness and transparency, where everyone is inspired to do their best work. If you join our team, you'll be contributing to building the technology that powers the future.
About the Role
The Manager, Colocation Leasing supports the Director of Colocation Leasing in securing leased data center capacity across the United States. Working directly with the Director and our Site Selection team, you'll keep the colocation deal workflow moving, from screening opportunities through LOI, contract negotiation, and internal approval.
This role is for someone with hands-on transaction experience who can take an assignment and run with it quickly, without needing step-by-step direction. You'll balance multiple concurrent deals, keep every opportunity organized and moving, and turn complex commercial terms into clear, decision-ready recommendations.
What You'll be Doing
Deal screening and pipeline
Screen colocation opportunities against Nscale's technical and commercial criteria, including power capacity, delivery timing, density and cooling, location, and pricing.
Prepare deal summaries and side-by-side comparisons to inform go/no-go decisions.
Maintain the colocation deal pipeline and tracker, keeping status, next steps, and owners current for every opportunity.
Coordinate day-to-day with colocation providers and brokers on assigned deals.
LOI and contract support
Draft LOIs and term sheets and track key commercial terms, including capacity (MW/kW), pricing and escalators, power pass-through, term and renewals, expansion rights, delivery milestones, and SLAs.
Support the Director and Legal in negotiating master service agreements, leases, and service orders.
Maintain issues lists and redline trackers, and follow up to close open points.
Coordinate technical diligence inputs from internal Energy and Power, Design, and Operations teams.
Approvals, submittal, and execution
Assemble deal approval packages, including economics, risk summary, and recommendation, for review and internal submittal.
Manage the approval and execution workflow through signature and handoff to Operations.
Track key dates, obligations, and milestones across executed leases.
Help build templates, checklists, and playbooks that turn the deal process into a repeatable workflow.
