AI Summary
About the role
Shadeform is a GPU cloud marketplace aggregating compute capacity across 30+ providers. As we expand into powered-land and data center development in partnership with a major US landowner, we're looking for an experienced Data Center Development Advisor.
You'll partner directly with our Head of Colo / Powered Land to vet sites, review design specs, and provide technical oversight across the development lifecycle. We're engaging on a project-by-project basis to start, but for the right person this can grow into a full-time role as our development pipeline scales.
Our sites typically fall in the 2.5–100MW range.
What you'll do
Vet prospective sites for data center suitability (power, cooling, connectivity, land constraints, permitting risk)
Review design specs, MEP plans, and construction documentation for feasibility and cost
Advise on facility layout, power density, and buildout economics across the 2.5–100MW range, including high-density GPU/AI deployments
Serve as a technical liaison between Shadeform, our landowner partner, and construction/engineering teams
Bring and leverage your network of construction, engineering, and GC contacts as needed
What we're looking for
Direct experience managing or overseeing the development/construction of data center facilities, ideally across the sub-100MW range
Strong grasp of power infrastructure, cooling systems, and site selection criteria
Existing relationships across construction, MEP engineering, and general contracting
Comfort working independently and engaging on a flexible, per-project cadence
Bonus: experience with high-density / AI-GPU deployments, powered-land deals, or colo/hyperscale builds
Engagement structure
Independent contractor, project-based to start, with a clear path to full-time as the pipeline grows. Scope, deliverables, and compensation defined per engagement initially. Open to semi-retired DC development professionals wanting selective work, as well as those seeking a full-time home as we scale.
