Land Acquisition Team Member – Midland, TX
About The Position
We are 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. 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; Austin, 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. The Land Acquisitions team works primarily in the ERCOT and SPP markets and across a variety of technologies, including wind, solar, storage, OGM, transmission, and data centers. The team’s scope covers full-cycle development from early-stage strategy through start of construction, with a primary focus on site selection and acquisition to maintain the schedule, budget, and economic value of each project. The team coordinates closely with all major SME departments on a daily basis. We are seeking a successful land acquisition professional to support real estate workstreams across multiple large-scale projects, land campaigns, and land acquisition efforts in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.
