Description du poste

About the role

As the Director of Environmental Health and Safety, you are responsible for building and leading the EHS program for the data center campus and associated support offices. This is a safety-first role: you set the overall safety strategy, ensure compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations, and drive a strong safety culture across operations, maintenance, construction, logistics, and office environments. You will partner closely with Facilities, Operations, Construction, HR, and Legal to manage risk, reduce incidents, and keep the site audit-ready at all times.

We are hiring a dedicated Environmental Compliance lead alongside this role to own the deep permitting and environmental regulatory work (air, water, land, waste). That means your energy goes where it matters most: safety programs, field execution, and culture; with a close partner handling environmental compliance day to day.

What you’ll do

• Program leadership and strategy

About you

• Bachelor’s degree in Occupational Health and Safety, Environmental Science, Industrial Hygiene, Engineering, or a closely related field required

• One or more of: CSP (Certified Safety Professional), CIH (Certified Industrial Hygienist), CHMM, CSHM, or equivalent EHS credential

• 10+ years of progressive EHS experience in industrial, manufacturing, energy, data center, chemical, pharmaceutical, or other high-risk environments

• Working knowledge of OSHA 1910 and OSHA 1926; OSHA 40 trained

• Certified CPR/AED trainer, or close enough to it that you can get there quickly

• Direct experience with OSHA and EPA compliance programs, including audits, corrective actions, and regulator interactions

• Comfortable in front of customers — you have presented safety and compliance programs to clients and held your own on the details

• Experience working around high-energy systems (electrical, mechanical, chemical) and coordinating safety with operations and maintenance

• You have owned safety at a site, with real accountability for outcomes — this is a boots-on-the-ground role, not an advisory one

• Deep understanding of OSHA regulations, NFPA standards, and best practices for high-reliability facilities

• Strong incident investigation and root-cause analysis skills

• Comfortable working across all levels of the organization, from technicians to executives

• Clear written and verbal communication; able to produce concise procedures, trainings, and reports

• Practical, field-focused mindset with willingness to be present in plant/field environments, not just office-based
