Responsibilities

• Lead and grow a team of energy analysts spanning data center portfolio analytics, clean and renewable projects, cost and rate analysis, and load and generation forecasting.
• Own hiring, onboarding, capacity planning, and team structure as the function scales.
• Develop ICs and emerging team leads.

• Help establish and scale an energy risk quantification capability within Energy Operations, building the systems that measure Meta's exposure to energy price and volume volatility and partnering with Finance to define the analytics and reporting cadence that surface material exposure shifts early.
• Build standardized tooling, data pipelines, and reporting that scale with the portfolio, reducing manual effort and streamlining communication of data and impact to the broader organization and leadership team
• Consolidate fragmented energy data across utility, market, and internal backend sources into durable, queryable data products with clear ownership
