Company Overview
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. In December 2025, Google announced an agreement to acquire Intersect, to enable more data center and generation capacity to come online faster while accelerating energy development and innovation. After close, we’ll continue doing exactly what we were built to do - develop, construct, and operate the most ambitious power and data infrastructure in the country.
Intersect’s operations will remain separate from Alphabet and Google under the Intersect brand. 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; Houston, 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
Intersect is hiring a Financial Commercial Lead within Asset Management to ensure the economic integrity and commercial continuity of datacenter infrastructure projects across their lifecycle. This role applies a project-wide financial and value lens to commercial decision-making, working in close partnership across the organization and with third-party stakeholders to ensure commitments remain realistic and executable in operations.
As an early Asset Management hire supporting this asset class, the Financial Commercial Lead plays a critical role in establishing delivery credibility and shaping an operating model designed to scale. The role is deeply involved from development through operations, with a visible integration role beginning at NTP and extending through COD and steady-state operations, serving as the commercial through-line across the asset lifecycle.
Team Overview
Asset Management is responsible for ensuring that Intersect’s datacenter infrastructure projects are commercially coherent, operationally ready, and governed in a way that supports long-term reliability and partnership trust. Within Intersect, Asset Management acts as the owner-side integrator, translating commercial requirements into an executable operating model that maximizes reliability and long-term value. Unlike traditional asset management models, Intersect Asset Management operates in a single-counterparty environment, where value is created through disciplined execution, operational reliability, and durable commercial relationships rather than lender-driven compliance.
What You’ll Do
Commercial Strategy & Risk Management
• Serve as the financial commercial lead for assigned projects, applying a project-wide economic and value lens to all non-technical commercial commitments.
• Own stewardship of offtake and other non-technical commercial agreements, including interpretation, change control, and escalation of material issues.
• Identify, assess, and manage commercial risks associated with pricing mechanics, settlement structures, non-plant cost drivers, and contract design.
Project Development & Integration
• Provide Asset Management input into development-stage commercial structures and modeling assumptions related to non-technical scope.
• Ensure commercial and financial assumptions made during development remain visible, intentional, and executable through construction and COD.
• Lead integration of non-technical commercial scope from NTP through COD, coordinating handoffs across teams and with project Asset Managers.
Financial Management
• Maintain ownership of project-level economic assumptions and value drivers.
• Identify and manage deviations between expected and realized economic performance over time.
• Frame and communicate the commercial implications of changes in assumptions, performance, or external conditions in partnership with internal teams.
Compliance & Administration
• Manage administration of non-technical commercial agreements, including offtake agreements and related amendments.
• Ensure commercial commitments are tracked, documented, and administered consistently with internal governance.
• Coordinate resolution of commercial disputes or changes in scope with internal and external stakeholders while preserving long-term trust.
What You’ll Bring
• 10–15+ years of experience in commercial, asset management, energy markets, or infrastructure roles
• Strong commercial judgment with the ability to own and drive economic outcomes
• Fluency in financial models, valuation drivers, and risk sensitivities
• Experience managing or influencing complex commercial contracts and structures
• Ability to work across functions and influence without direct authority
• Comfort operating in ambiguity and making tradeoff decisions
