[Hiring] Site Selection Lead @Andromeda Cluster

Role Description

Andromeda's infrastructure team designs, deploys, and operates large-scale GPU clusters for AI labs and compute providers. The Site Selection Lead finds, qualifies, and secures the data centers our clusters are deployed into. You own the full cycle from market screening through diligence, lease negotiation, and handoff to delivery. You report to the Head of Infrastructure.

What You'll Own

• Market screening: Assessment of markets and inbound opportunities on power availability, scalability, cost, permitting, and tax.
• Pipeline: An accurate pipeline of sites, deal status, documentation, and milestones, with risks and delays flagged early.
• Diligence: Site-level diligence on power capacity and utility timelines, cooling (direct liquid cooling readiness, CDUs, facility water), structure, connectivity, zoning, and permitting, including on-site evaluations.
• Lease negotiation: Negotiations with landlords and operators from LOI through execution, working with Legal and Finance.
• Relationships: Brokers, landlords, utilities, consultants, and development partners across markets.
• Handoff: A clean handoff into delivery, buildout, and operations, with technical requirements, commercial commitments, and timelines aligned.

Qualifications

• 6+ years in data center site selection, infrastructure development, or commercial real estate with technical diligence.
• Strong knowledge of US data center markets, utility infrastructure, and regional regulatory frameworks.
• Experience leading commercial lease negotiations and complex due diligence through to execution.
• Ability to read single-line diagrams and MEP drawings and spot gaps in power and cooling redundancy.
• Understanding of liquid-cooled deployments at 100kW+ per rack.
• Ability to make clear recommendations from incomplete information and stand behind them.

Requirements

• Real estate experience without technical diligence is not a fit.

Strong Candidates May Have

• Utility interconnection, power procurement, or behind-the-meter generation experience.
• Site work in Europe, the Middle East, or Asia.
• PE license or equivalent engineering qualification.

Benefits

• Set the site evaluation standard for every deployment.
• Work across new AI data center capacity in multiple markets.
• High talent density, high trust team shaping the compute market.
• Comprehensive benefits for you and your dependents, including healthcare, dental, and vision coverage, 401(k), and unlimited PTO.

Company Description

Andromeda is a market and infrastructure platform to buy, sell, and operate compute. We believe demand for compute will grow exponentially. So fast that a handful of vertically integrated providers won't be able to scale across operations, capital, supply chains, and politics to serve it. The result is a massive wave of fragmentation, with AI factories of every shape and size coming to market to fill this demand. Our job is to enable all of that fragmented compute to flow through one platform, delivering reliable capacity to model builders, research labs, and inference providers when they need it.

We believe every spare electron should be made productive for AI and we're building the platform that makes that possible.

We sit at the center of three forces:

• Companies that need reliable, high-performance compute fast.
• A fragmented global supply of GPUs across hyperscalers, neoclouds, and independent data centers.
• Capital, risk, and operational complexity that most teams are not equipped to manage.

When we succeed, trillions of dollars of compute will flow through Andromeda. Builders get capacity when they need it. Providers get a reliable way to monetize, operate, and finance infrastructure at scale. Capital gets an easy way to deploy, hedge, and underwrite. In five years, Andromeda won't just participate in the AI infrastructure market. We will shape it.
