About This Role

This Development Project Manager role specifically leads the development phase of large-scale AI data center and energy generation projects across the U.S., orchestrating internal stakeholders to deliver projects on budget and schedule.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day involves reviewing project plans and budgets for multiple AI data center and energy generation projects, coordinating with technical consultants on development deliverables, and preparing materials for upcoming stage gate reviews.
