# Data Center Development Advisor

**Shadeform** — Remote

Apply: https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/shadeform/007748bf-7f24-476d-a2f4-b49d6840f255

## About Shadeform

Teams struggling with GPU availability use our platform to unlock capacity immediately for their growing AI workloads. Shadeform has a unified, easy-to-use API and platform to access and provision GPUs and deploy models for inference to any provider. With our aggregated availability and pricing data, we can help ensure your on-demand inference and training jobs will run on time at optimal cost.

## About the role

**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.
