Summary

Our data centers are the foundation upon which our rapidly scaling infrastructure efficiently delivers our innovative services. Meta’s Energy Team is seeking a commercially-experienced and self-motivated energy professional to help us grow and manage our data center portfolio, ensuring a reliable, cost effective, risk-aware, and sustainable energy supply that meets business capacity planning needs. This role will focus on both regulated and organized electricity markets, as well as the natural gas transactions that increasingly underpin our ability to bring new capacity online at speed.
